History PlayingWith / MoralGuardians

* '''Exaggerated''':
** B.A.N. is a group of [[KnightTemplar pious and self-righteous]] people who seek to cancel all shows for showing the slightest hint of any immoral behavior on ''every'' media, [[JaywalkingWillRuinYourLife especially]] [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking jaywalking]].
** B.A.N. bans any kind of inappropriate content on all media with a cult-like obsession, no matter how petty. Every video game, television, sports, literature, and music industry on Earth is ultimately boycotted and eventually shut down and their employees executed by B.A.N. and the Earth's human population lives miserably boring lives without any kind of entertainment. B.A.N. installs a BigBrotherIsWatching system to spy on any human being trying to have any kind of fun, and if they catch them, they [[DisproportionateRetribution subject them to viciously cold torture]] and horrifying MindRape, and lock them up in {{Room101}} [[AndIMustScream for millennia while forcefully keeping them alive and fully aware]]. Long story short, ''[[NiceJobBreakingItHero the B.A.I.S killed the entire media forever, and conquered the planet]]'', essentially transforming Earth into a massive {{dystopia}}.

* '''Enforced''': The author had to deal with them on his last project and wants to write a TakeThat. Or, a Moral Guardian ''is'' the writer and wants to show that a story can be wholesome and entertaining, or that not everyone concerned with content is a crazy villain.

--> '''B.A.I.S. Member 1:''' Doesn't this list of controversies seem a little uptight and unreasonable to you?
--> '''B.A.I.S. Member 2:''' Don't be silly! The B.A.I.S. ''has'' to be uptight and unreasonable! Nobody ever listens when you try to talk on their level.

** Bob [[GenreSavvy knows]] that people hate the B.A.I.S., so he hires actors to complain about his show so more people will want to watch it in spite.
** Harry, a company rival of Bob, plans to get more ratings on ''his'' show by hiring the B.A.I.S to ruin Bob's show.
* '''Defied''': The B.A.I.S. refuse to comment on the latest "immoral" media, knowing viewers [[StreisandEffect will want to seek it out]] if they comment on it.

* '''Conversed''': "Why is ''Troperville'' so watered down? Why is the dialogue all sugary and sweet? Why are we filled with these crappy morals?"

** While at first B.A.N. appeared to be spoilsports and SourGrapes, an actual viewing of the show suggests that they are [[TheExtremistWqsRight right to protest it.]] Especially when one episode of the show features a graphic sex scene despite being targeted specifically for young children to watch.

** The B.A.I.S are fully responsible for "purifying" television shows by having characters [[YouBastard pointing out the viewers' enjoyment of unacceptable behavior]] OncePerEpisode.
** The B.A.I.S write in to complain about aversion to morals in a particular show, but their concept of morals [[BlueAndOrangeMorality is far too bizarre and alien]] than what other viewers would consider normal.
* '''Zig Zagged''': ???

** The C.O.Y.S (Corrupt Our Youth Society) is a group of people whose purpose is to promote immoral behavior in children's programming.

** B.A.I.S. turns out only to care about certain kinds of immoral behavior, such any hint of sex. They're just fine with media that openly support stealing from the poor to give to the rich, for example.

* '''Downplayed''': The B.A.I.S only bans anything that is too extreme for viewers.

** The B.A.I.S wants the authors of the show to ThinkOfTheChildren who are prone to mimic bad behavior on television.
** The B.A.I.S has legitimate concerns, as the show they are protesting often promotes dangerous ideas and treat real world controversial issues flippantly.

* '''Straight''': The B.A.I.S (Ban All Immorality Society) is a group of people who seek to ban anything immoral they see on television shows - [[FamilyUnfriendlyViolence violence]], [[SexIsEvil sexual themes]], [[PrecisionFStrike profanity]], or [[DrugsAreBad drug usage]].
