There is no market demand for this.No market demand amongst young children for fart jokes and mild potty humor? Is this guy really a dad? Or did he just invent the fact to make a sour point?

No market demand amongst young children for fart jokes and mild potty humor? Is this guy really a dad? Or did he just invent the fact to make a sour point? Free speech advocates are quick to remind parents to control what their children see. That is the market to which the author clearly refers.

True, the author weakened his argument by focusing on fart humor in the beginning. But his larger point in irrefutable: Hollywood is and has been poisoning the minds of children, as well as adults, for decades. Movies and TV have made the deviant aspects of our culture seem normal. At best, they have dumbed down the entire population and wasted our time. At worst, they have corrupted our consciousness irrevocably. Movies like Silence of the Lambs are examples of what I call "Deeply Evil Movies"--movies that use horrifying scenes of violence for no purpose other than to traumatize the viewer. There really should be a special rating class for this kind of #@%&.
