I don't understand the leap from my comment to concluding that I'm suggesting people can't be easily influenced. I was specifically talking about people who can be easily influenced, and the impossibility of shielding those people from content which would influence them negatively. The way a bit of content influences a person is not tied to the content so much as it is tied to the person consuming it. This is supported by research on confirmation bias and similar work. The idea that there exists content which is, independent from the mindset of the audience, not possible to be interpreted in a negative manner is what I dispute.
