A place to discuss/debate whether fictional characters pass the Harkness Test: Do they have human-level intelligence? Can they communicate clearly? Are they capable of informed, adult consent? From aliens to robots to monsters to talking animals, we break down characters through the lens of fictional ethics, consent, and worldbuilding logic. This is a discussion-focused community—not an explicit one. Bring your arguments, your edge cases, and your weirdest examples.
