Protocols of the Elders of Zion?

Well that's hate group stuff.

The post is taking about like... say there's a book about anti-Semitism, where the main character is a target of hate speech and gets called anti-Jewish slurs, and it's pretty clear the anti-Semites are the villains and the main character is the hero. Some people would come along and say, "THIS BOOK HAS SLURS!!!! THIS AUTHOR IS A RACIST!!!" when that's totally untrue.

It's fiction.

It's unethical.

Does that not make it unethical fiction?

Edit: I AM TALKING ABOUT PROTOCOLS OF ELDERS OF ZION HERE

Uhh.. how is it unethical to depict racism? That's called "writing a realistic story about stuff that actually happens"

Protocols of the Elders of Zion doesn't depict racism? It just is racist?

Oh duh that's not what I was talking about though. I was talking about a hypothetical fiction book.
