I miss the Wild West days. It built character.

Children today never have to see this kind of shit anymore.

Good for them. Seeing that shit so early in life desensitized too many people in my generation in the worst ways and that's the last thing humanity needs right now.

It seems to me like the younger generation are less callous than my own generation, and certainly less so than the boomers.

The worst way to be desensitized is against violence, not butt stuff.

I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding this or maybe you don't know what the references are, but the OP is not just referring to "butt stuff".

I'm certainly not going to go item by item there, but several are entirely consensual and just icky. Older generations are much quicker to kill actual people.

Dude, are you kidding? Did you forgot about Ronnie mcnutt (RIP)? Kekma. ga? And really being decensitized at such a young age isn't some thing to be proud of lmfao. I think the kids are doing right if they don't see that stuff lol.
