You lost me when you said it wasn't victimless. (which you did say, btw. see below)
'I wouldn't go so far as to say it's victimless and therefore okay.'
You said that. Not me.
It is victimless and okay. In fact, it's healthy. It plays out these topics in a world where it can't hurt anyone. The faux bigotry these stories invoke actually teaches people not to discriminate and there's scientific evidence of that.
