0·2 years agoYes, my intention was to respond to an anecdote with another anecdote to illustrate that point. Some of us can claim they looked at depraved shit as a kid and turned out fine, but statistically, many of us did not turn out fine.
For me, I’ve only spent more time online as I’ve gotten older for the reasons you stated. As a kid, my screen time was maybe an hour or so. I’m not saying the Internet turned me into an asshole, but I do believe that it had a hand in it.

0·2 years agoI’m not claiming there’s a direct link. I am saying there’s no evidence to support your claim that repulsive content is fine because the evidence suggests that we did not turn out just fine. My anecdotal evidence is that I had more empathy as a child than as an adult, which is largely thought abnormal, and I think desensitization due to watching beheadings and shit in my formative years might be part of the reason.
