I can’t imagine why you’re trying to prove it’s fiction. That’s a no brainer. People into this most likely wear Reynolds Wrap hats with bouncing beanie stalks.
I was raised on fantasy, too. The Graustark books by George Barr McCutcheon. Turn of the century commoner marries Prince/Princess. Love fantasy. Know it’s fantasy. Love Star Trek, too, and don’t have the slightest doubt Spock still lives - in imagination! (Crossed out Kirk since he DOES still live)

I was just posting the facts of this matter and the history of it.
Obviously you took my comments the wrong way.
Fantasy and Sci-FI used to be just good, entertaining reads, with some Sci-Fi stuff actually coming true ( we did have men flying to and walking on the moon, for example ). But sadly, some parts of fantasy/Sci-FI dystopian fiction has now come to pass.
