Like 100 years ancient vs 5000 years ancient?
Yes.
You and I are concerned with different things in this conversation. You brought up a fictional story [Fallout], and the apparent dismay by real people about fictional people. I cannot take this perceived affront seriously, and personally think that it casts doubt on the sanity of those who do. Am I mistaken, or are you suggesting they have ~or be given the legal right to inflict their censorship upon authors in every country on Earth? (...and seem to be suggesting that they lack the maturity to accept imagined tales that contradict their own beliefs... Is this any way essentially different from taking offense at the existence of elves or dragons in fiction also?)
There is a difference between fiction as fiction, and fiction as fact. An author can write a story about Ronald Reagan personally invading a country ~Rambo-style, and freeing POWs, but the line is crossed when a news corporation prints the same tale as fact. Fallout has never been presented as fact; there is no affront to correct ~unless the people you mention cannot abide others freely thinking as they wish [and/or whenever they write fiction].
A strange thing happened a few years ago... A studio released a game with a playable Kali in it... And the character was over-sexualized and made some people very uncomfortable; and the company caved to their pressure and re-drew the art to be more prudish and blandly acceptable... and yet, just google Kali and one will see the traditional art that depicts Kali as violent and over-sexualized. Rather hypocritical is it not?
**Do they take offense at the Kali Linux distro? [The one known specifically for penetration.]
