Values Dissonance: Difference between revisions

See also [[Unfortunate Implications]]. Compare [[Moral Dissonance]], where the show breaks its own morals. Also see [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]], in which it's critical acclaim rather than moral values that is on the line. Also see [[Fair for Its Day]], in which the work actually has ''less'' values dissonance than its contemporaries. See [[Culture Clash]] and [[Innocent Bigot]] for when this happens in-story and [[Deliberate Values Dissonance]] for when the author is doing it on purpose. Also see [[Have a Gay Old Time]] and [[Get Thee to a Nunnery]], where dialogue is interpreted differently due to this. Has similarity to [[Good Flaws, Bad Flaws]]. Contrast [[Blue and Orange Morality]] and [[Values Resonance]]. Can sometimes result in [[Misplaced Nationalism]].

 

 

'''WARNING: By its nature, this trope is highly controversial. You may well encounter a custom or belief on this page that you don't think is dissonant at all; you might even be inclined to vehemently defend it. Indeed, concepts of right or wrong or even of what is "proper" are rarely universal in the truest sense of the word. Across all the advanced civilizations of Earth's history, just about anything has been or can potentially be justified, or at least rationalized. So if you see an example here that you disagree with, please refrain from [[Conversation in the Main Page|adding your own interpretation]].'''
