This, however, don't even come close to cause this much damage, so I think the real issue is that people watch, not only a TV show about bloody fairy tale and Disney characters, but  a TV show about bloody fairy tale and Disney characters with notoriously lazy and inconsistent writing  and are for some reason takes it  seriously.

One thing is being personally invested in a show, I mean - I can watch Free Wily, the Lion King and so forth and get tear-eyed, but that's it, I never get genuinely angry. And people getting real life upset by OUAT makes about as much sense as me getting worked up over someone telling me unicorns and goblins aren't real. It's stupid. Why shouldn't we take it seriously? This isn't the writers telling us Santa isn't real. It is them, again, using a very serious issue as a plot point. We know Hook isn't getting justice for what was done to him. Hell he might end up dating his rapist, or being thankful for it.

It is treating rape as not that big an issue. Which will make people angry
