That's the age where if one can't handle R rated content, they are mentally weak or on a path to weaponized victomhood. Not that schools and parents should be showing porngroaphic brainrot content, whether it's glorifying violence or decades old Disney slop. We should absolutely be doing more to measure individuals' suspectability to addiction and propaganda, and taking whatever the appropriate precautions are. That includes sending this useful idiot off to a soviet gulag.
Yeah, I was calling out conventional wisdom for getting the problem wrong. The point is two-fold. One is that most pre-teens have functioning mental faculties (warped only by being in an artificial half-prison environment for half their waking-hours) aren't going to have a mental affliction upon voluntary exposure to gruesome material. Do adults really develop amnesia around the nonsense they got up to in 5th-6th grade? The second is that we really ought to tackle how we let so many kids and parents get accustomed to corporate junk-media of various forms over the past century. All I'm concerned about is if kids are developing critical thinking skills and media literacy, not if Timmy sees a violent cutscene in Call of Duty.

Seek help dude. If you think 5th graders should be seeing that video, and even worse multiple times then you are genuinely a bit damaged.
Fucking eleven?
Okay, schizo.
I dont think people read your full comment.
