Yes. Of course. That is the point. To make people laugh/cry/think.

Some may feel it is and change their decisions based on it. That is their prerogative. Stanley Kubrick banned A Clockwork Orange himself because some youths in England kicked a tramp to death while singing Singin' in the Rain. Others may not be aware of the influence of art/media on behaviour. How they choose to work with that knowledge is up to them. Art is not so sacred that people cannot value things above an artist's conscience.

Where did I say or even imply they were mutually exclusive?
