Yes, thank you! I'd extend it to more than just being stupid. That sentiment applies equally to just about every fictional work. Using atlas shrugged to cheer whatever the fuck rand was trying to push is just as foolish as using a separate peace for examples of codependence.
Fiction can highlight things, but when any author can make gay space communism and super-straight (tm) capitalism equally viable and good for the individuals operating under their systems by simply writing a sentence like, "The super-straight capitalismo empire had citizens every bit as happy and fulfilled as the gay space communitarians across the river," then maybe all the english language arts teachers should take a deep breath and step back from their fart sniffing on the soap box.
