In most ethical views, it's not. Harry was raised by the Dursleys, and while they were cruel to him, torture is an extreme form of revenge. In the world of fanfic, some might explore this idea for shock value or to show a 'dark' side of Harry. But from a moral standpoint in general, it goes against the principles of kindness and non - violence that are often promoted.
No. Torture is an inhumane act. The Dursleys' mistreatment of Harry doesn't give him the right to torture them in fanfic. While fanfic allows for creative exploration, we should still uphold basic moral values. Harry could use his magic to distance himself from the Dursleys or expose their bad behavior, but torture is simply unacceptable.
It's not ethical. Even though the Dursleys treated Harry horribly, torture is never a justifiable response. Fanfic often plays with extreme scenarios, but this one is disturbing. Harry has the power to overcome his past with the Dursleys in more positive ways, like showing them how well he can do without their abuse, rather than resorting to torture.
This is a complex question. On one hand, as long as it's clearly labeled and the audience is aware of what they're getting into, it can be considered a form of creative expression. But on the other hand, the extreme and often disturbing nature of torture fanfic might make some people question its ethics, especially if it involves glorifying or making light of real - world issues related to torture.
No. Writing fanfic that involves torture is unethical as it promotes violence and harm, especially when it comes to a character like Batwoman who represents justice. Such content can be disturbing to many readers and goes against the positive values that the character usually stands for.
This type of fanfiction has significant ethical implications. It changes the fundamental nature of the relationship between Harry and the Dursleys. In the original, Harry overcomes the Dursleys' cruelty through his own strength and the support of his friends at Hogwarts. By having him murder them, it's a complete subversion of that positive arc. It also sets a bad example for younger fans who look up to Harry as a role model, making it seem like violence is an acceptable way to deal with those who wrong you.
In the world of fanfiction, the idea of Harry Potter killing the Dursleys' child is extremely dark and unethical in the context of the original series' values. Harry was raised by the Dursleys, albeit unpleasantly, but he has a moral compass that would not lead him to such a heinous act. Fanfiction that explores such extreme and immoral concepts can be disturbing and goes against the spirit of the Harry Potter universe.
Probably not. The idea of Harry being beaten to death by the Dursleys is extremely dark and goes against the general spirit of the Harry Potter series. Most fans are more interested in positive, adventure - filled, or character - development - centered fanfics.
BDSM involves consensual activities within a defined set of rules. However, the term 'torture' in the context of BDSM is not actual torture as it is consensual. Ethically, as long as all parties are adults, fully informed, and have given their explicit consent, and the activities are carried out within legal boundaries, it can be considered ethical. But it's a very complex and controversial topic, and different people may have different views based on their cultural, moral and personal beliefs.
There are several ethical concerns. Firstly, torture is a serious and immoral act in real life, and depicting it in fanfiction, especially when it involves a popular and often - loved character like Hermione, can be seen as inappropriate. It might also have an impact on the perception of the characters. Bellatrix is already a villain, but making torture a central part of a fanfic about her could reinforce negative and violent stereotypes. Moreover, it could be triggering for some readers who have experienced or are sensitive to violence or abuse.
In this fanfic, the Dursleys may be depicted as being in over their heads. Vernon Dursley, for example, might be shown as constantly angry and trying to assert his authority in a situation where he has none. Petunia Dursley could be portrayed as being torn between her dislike for magic and her sense of family obligation towards Harry. Dudley might be shown as being bullied or affected in the Muggle world because of Harry's presence in their family.
In the fanfic, Snape might use his knowledge of the Dursleys' house layout. He may enter the house unnoticed, find Harry, and then use a Portkey to quickly get them both out of there. He could also have some sort of charm or potion that he uses to counter any magic the Dursleys might have used to keep Harry there, like a spell - breaking potion. And he may have planned the whole rescue very carefully, choosing a time when the Dursleys are least likely to notice, like in the middle of the night.
The abuse makes Harry more cautious. He has learned from the Dursleys that the world can be cruel, so he's careful about who he trusts. For example, he might be hesitant to open up to new people he meets at Hogwarts.
