Firstly, your misanthropy is unfounded. These are practices of only a few cultures in a few countries in the world. Many nations have much more lenient restrictions on content, meaning that they do not share anything approaching the draconian standards you've tried to describe here.

Secondly, even in the United States*, media censorship is on the decline. Commercial advertisements and children's television shows are getting away with more line-toeing writing than ever before; the advent of the internet and its unlimited potential for freaky-ass stunts is forcing a new generation of parents to teach their kids about heretofore-thought-adult subjects early.

Thirdly, not everyone who disagrees with you is a dumbass alarmist. That's called "poisoning the well", bucko. And it is shitty argumentation.


 * I assume it's these standards you're complaining about. Even if not, my point still holds.
