Why do you guys insist we're advancing, progressing and developing as a species and society? It's the exact opposite: we're going backwards by the year.
>your proof? We're becoming more and more sensitive. Just watched a movie from the 70's, Papillon, and it showed animal deaths and naked preteen tits. You couldn't do that today. Why? Because we'd get offended. Sensitivity = weakness. Weakness = regression.
??? game of thrones shows dudes getting their dicks cut off, porn is widespread and rampant, death and sex are staples of all forms of media now you're retarded and you live under a rock, if anything we're becoming desensitized
Wyatt Adams
OP's post is just a thinly veiled jab at arguing that pre-teen nudity should be commonplace.
Jack Carter
>GoT Everything in it is CGI and shit. Imaginary deaths aren't the measure of sensitivity.
So you're triggered by everything related to minors huh? You prove my point then. 2000's is the first time in the history of mankind when being hebe is the ultimate taboo. We ARE more sensitive.
Easton Williams
In a way you're right, but also wrong. What our society is doing is being incrediby hypocritical. It's confusing. On the other hand sexuality and porn has become so normal it has numbed us, but then again you can't have consensual sex with a 17-year-old because suddenly that's more horrible than gangraping 18-year-olds.
I literally do not understand this society. Either be immoral or moral, not both simultaneously for fucks sake.
Luke Stewart
A live chicken is killed in Papillon, a Hollywood blockbuster from the 70's. Not a CGI chicken. Imagine the reaction if it happened today. It would cause an uproar. It caused nothing back in the day.

>??? game of thrones shows dudes getting their dicks cut off It wasn't shown.
>porn is widespread and rampant Uhh maybe on your computer. Not mine.
>death and sex are staples of all forms of media now Not the media I'm watching.
>you're retarded and you live under a rock, if anything we're becoming desensitized If you're desensitized to immoral shit why are you triggered by an innocent picture of a child's face posted by an adult male.
Have you not seen the rise of feminists and SJW? You're the one living under a rock. Nowadays everything offends women and they get their way. Car air fresheners that have sexy women on them were banned from my country because they were "objectifying" women.
Chase Moore
user are you retarded? That is not how regression works. If you wanted to take examples of how our modern society is regressing you should have taken examples of how western societies accept the flood of immigrants and encourage their backwards beliefs. Rape and crime statistics are at rise in so many developed countries due to this -- that is regression. Emotional response is not. Even if it were, your post is incorrect as it implies the opposite of the truth, we are being desensitized. The outrage would be justified (depending on context) as we have the means to not kill anything living today, while making it seem just as realistic.

I agree that that is regression too. Sorry for not including every fucking example of regression, moron. I wanted to provide a new perspective - we all mock immigrants day in day out and agree they were a mistake, it's not even worthy of discussing.
>we are being desensitized Then explain why pictures of minors in a bikini trigger an emotional outrage from you in 2019 but not in 1979.
Blake Flores
>well, i didn't do the things you're saying! sounds like you're the sensitive one. i'm describing reality, and you are evading it. fuck you, you're retarded, stop breathing my air.
John Cox
>explain why pictures of minors in a bikini trigger an emotional outrage in 2019 but not in 1979 You seem to not understand that social norms and morals change constantly. We had literal witch hunts in medieval times due to people being overly sensitive. Women were not allowed to wear lipstick until the 20th century because men were so sensitive about it. The simple answer to your question is: morals have changed, it's no longer acceptable to sexualize minors in such ways.
Jacob Taylor
Tbh you sound more triggered than me. I haven't even resorted to 90% of my post being ad hominem Are you even capable of posting anything else than >durr you're retarded durrrr Protip, that's how people know you're mad.
Ayden Ross
It makes no sense though. We're so much smarter now. Shoudln't we conclude with our magnificent 2019 intellect that a 17-year-old in a bikini literally isn't offensive in any way?
I understand that people in the 1500s had witch hunts but the pedo taboo is just a 21st century witch hunt. Are we just as stupid as people back then?
Logan Turner
The legal age of consent in most developed countries is around 15. However, the laws that minors shouldn't be sexualized in media is to protect them as they aren't mentally mature enough to not be exploited by the adult market. If a minor is being sexualized, it's most likely a result of exploitation in some kind of way and this is why there is an outrage. I don't see how you are too fucking retared to see that. user, are you a pedo trying to rationalize and excuse having 5TB cp on your computer?
David Garcia
You're just a pedo, dude. Stop trying to justify it.

Who on this board ever said that?
Nolan Diaz
Are you fucking kidding me OP? You are fucking sub-IQ or a child. The fuck made you think this way? Watching some Ben-Shapiro or your mum bitched too much? I am curious. Here is the answer.
Think about this. Would you call stone age times advanced? I don't think anyone really gave a fuck about rape or killing in those times. There are no real records of course.
Alternatively take a look at societies that we think are less advanced and we do have records of. Think people gave a fuck about capital punishment or slavery centuries back? No. This is one of the biggest shit threads I've seen in this month. How can you be so moronic?
Julian Davis
You've just adopted a shitty view of the world, dunno why though. The fact is things are getting better across the board for everyone, I sometimes forget how many people here are lost causes but hopefully you stop letting your pessimistic attitude prevent you from seeing reality. Easy times creates weak men, there is truth in that, so the west is suffering but there are plenty of more than competent people still around, try being one of them.

I've been claiming we're going backwards in development for years We should be striving for technological advancements and to shred our emotions which stands in our way, instead we're going backwards to windmill tier power.. and feefees have a higher value then factual proof Wonder how long before we demand horse carriages again and a ban on cars
