All forms of violence in entertainment have soared in the last 40 years. Funny though, how Hollywood with their Pacifism and anti-Smoking Liberalism show enormous tons of destruction and violence by cigarette smoking cool folks.
I can’ see films anymore with a hunk or babe holding a pistol with two hands outstretched (or in futuristic Science Fiction films, Laser gun) blaming away. In the same way, I can't watch Manhattan, Chicago or LA being obliterated by robots, aliens, Godzilla, the fog, meteorites, the cold, Tsunamis etc., just can't stand this death wish Hollywood has for America and her icons (like a sinking statue of Liberty - a real favorite) or the white House blowing up. Just can't do it anymore...

You mean you didn’t cheer when the Martians blew up Congress in Mars Attacks!

I used to be quite amused by the old The Avengers series with Diana Rigg beating the heck out of all sorts of baddies. Ditto for Wonder Woman. Now it seems every cop show has to have a super tough female cop (who weighs about 120 lbs.) beating the snot out of 250 male baddies. Can’t watch it without laughing.

I love seeing LA or NYC destroyed because they are leftist icons

What you said. It's tiresome, boring and banal. There's probably 3-4 mainstream shows I watch. TMC is still at the top of my list.
