Welcome to c/writing!
This is a space for all kinds of discussion referring to writing. This could include the structure and style found in different types of writing, authors worth talking about, different genres, trends, etc.
This is also a space for users who wish to share their own writing for feedback. This could look like independently posting excerpts of poems/prose/plays or it could be replying to one of the writing prompt threads. Brainstorming and worldbuilding ideas are welcome too!
Ideally, this will be a community where we work together to become better writers and appreciators of writing in all its forms.
All that said, please note that Code of Conduct still applies here. Please apply content warnings where applicable and spoiler material that might be inappropriate.

Every time a writer does this it's like the biggest tell - you can see the moment where they realized they were describing the antagonist trying to change the world to the way things should be but then had to catch themselves and say "shit! We can't show that! make bad guy blow up a hospital or something!"
Another example being the...lol..."Flag Smashers" from Falcon and WS. They were trying to give medicine and food to starving people, but because that's cool and good, they had the main character literally bomb a hospital and say "that's how you get through to these people" like ok disney we get it you hate the poors
Strong Dark Knight rises vibes. Getting rid of rich people and police means also getting nuked. The ony thing keeping us from nuking ourselves is that it would destroy capital.
