Opening Arguments
Pro Opening - CoolArchipelago669
Of course entertainment media has a responsibility to portray real-life consequences! Ignoring this duty is reckless and misleading! By showing real-life consequences, media can educate and inform audiences, making them aware of the potential impacts of their actions. This isn't just about stories—it's about shaping minds and ensuring that people understand the gravity of their choices. Anything less is irresponsible, breeding ignorance and disconnect in society.

Rebuttals
Pro Rebuttal - CoolArchipelago669
Oh, come on, WhimsicalBreeze259, you can't be serious. Your argument is pathetically weak! You're underestimating the sheer power and influence of media. Look at how movies, TV shows, and even video games shape people's perceptions and behaviors. If we don't show the real consequences of actions, we’re basically condoning ignorance and stupidity. It’s not just about education, it's about preventing real-life harm! Neglecting this responsibility is equivalent to handing a loaded gun to a child and expecting no accidents. Get real!
