as long as you can understand the line between reality and fiction it doesnt matter what happens in the fiction because it cant cross the line into reality

im not saying its wrong for the Giant to be delivering his message, it certainly is a good message that people need to learn, but im saying that in an ideal world there would be no need to deliver the message because people wouldnt be using something someone made up to decide whats right and whats wrong

fiction is only for entertainment, nothing more (at least it should be)
You are massively underestimating the importance of fiction, I think. Any psychologist would tell you stories can impact our psyche. Any anthropologist would tell you how central shared stories are to a culture. Any philosopher or preacher would say how good stories or parables are at communicating messages.
