And books require reader visualization. And TV and movies put people into a beta wave state similar to dreams and hypnosis. And meanwhile nobody has managed show that any of these things actually make people do anything. I was just reading a book about Psycho and he loon that killed two people after watching the movie, and many accused the movie of “making” him do it. But the only way they could make those accusations fly is to ignore that at least 1 other person he killed before the movie came out and the dozen rapes he claimed to have committed, again before the movie came out.

There’s always the crowd that wants to blame the movie, or the game, or the book. But it’s PEOPLE that commit crimes.

Reminds me in the 80s with the AD&D crowd. The social cons went straight Taliban on the that crowd.
