This isn't people being offended by content. This is a show that causes harm. The scientific consensus is that this show has harmed people.

- malvosenior 8y agoI didn't say it was about people being offended. My point is that we shouldn't expect art to be bland and harmless. Some art will cause harm (just like tons of things in our society do: alcohol, gambling...). We collectively need to toughen up, accept that not everything is safe and enjoy the multitude of choices we have in how we live our lives.
- DanBC 8y ago> alcohol, gambling Both of these are strictly regulated, right? I don't think you're suggesting that media companies should be similarly regulated, but I don't know why you'd mention them. >We collectively need to toughen up Unfortunate phrasing in the context of vulnerable children killing themselves.
