    You’re blaming the wrong people. Being sensitive of triggers is a good thing, advertisers are the problem.

    If you look into the history of radio & television, you’ll see the same pattern. Like the internet, at first they were an awesome medium anyone could use and all kinds of badass stuff happened. Over time everything became consolidated & advertisers insisted on censoring for maximum efficiency.
