I would liken it instead of disappearing into fantasy worlds to instead being enchanted in the traditional sense- to be taken over and made a thrall. In D&D, you roll dice to pretend to shoot fire; there can be very little illusion that you are actually doing anything with material reality effects. Fox News has real people telling the viewers about events that have film evidence that can, at least partially, be verified to be actually occurring amongst their peer group even if the depiction of the context is completely different. Lia Thomas is in fact a trans woman who competed in competitive swimming as a woman in college who won in a division of that competitive swimming team three years ago. Whether or not this represents a statistically significant takeover of womens sports by violent men with sexual fantasies of public female performance is up to framing.
