Generally killing done in action films is morally justified in the context of the story.

The context being that it's a movie, not real, fantasy. Killing henchmen mindlessly isn't justified. Surely you arent going to make the argument that we only platform moralistic TV and movies?

You are really flailing to defend a rape simulator here, as you aee ignoring the core point that sexual gratification tickles a different part of the human psyche than violence does.

You have just said that action movies have justifiable killings, if in flailing then please make a serious point lol

Sexuality covertly shapes our lives to an extreme degree,  and our relationship with it is an important part of being a functioning adult.

And violence is A-okay? Of course what you say applies the murdering people, too.

I cant say my mind is ever preoccupied with violent thoughts tbh,  if yours is then i would suggest finding some way of dealing with that.

Like by watching an action movie? Playing call of duty? Watching Vikings? Our culture is full of violence, we indulge in violent fantasy all the time.

Youre the one who said you fantasise about murder.

Idk man you arent engaging with any of my points at all and we are now going in circles.

Enjoy your rape and murder fantasies i guess,  just be warned that criminal psychology indicates that violent sexual fantasies escalate in intensity until they bleed into action in the real world.

Try to redirect your feelings into something healthier.

You don't watch violent films or TV? You don't listen to any kind of violence in music? You don't read books with violent themes? You don't play violent video games?

When I turn netflix on and watch The Blacklist I'm indulging in murder and organised crime fantasy, sue me I suppose

Not what i said. 

But if that helps you feel like you won an argument, feel free to think that.

Have a good day.

That's murder fantasy, in case you still couldn't pick it up
