That's fair. But, in the absence of any of those references (even if they're broad references), you're still culpable for promoting despair and hopelessness when you dabble in Dystopian Porn. It's what we'd expect from the likes of Wildfire or Umair...but not someone who has shown themselves to be as thoughtful and compassionate as you have.

The fact that a certain self-indulgently toxic individual here in your Comments Section has so flagrantly praised you for dipping your toe into that sludge doesn't bode well for a trajectory in which you could be headed. :-(
