The shooter was at the age of someone who was probably exposed to Internet pornography at the age of 9,10 or 11. So, as a society we allowed a child to become an sex addict and we share some of the responsibility.
Even if children and are not exposed to explicit internet pornography, our current culture has been pornified, i.e. Cardi B. She has an explicit music video for a song called “Wet Ass Pussy” and she just performed it on the Grammys. Congratulations America. I guarantee you that boys watch that video and masturbate and girls watch that video and copy the dancing and clothes.
In some countries, pornography is more tightly regulated and children are less likely to be exposed to it.
I watched porn since i can remember, i have never shot up a massage parlor or even considered it. Stop trying to shift the blame on anything but the batshit crazy guy who did it.
I'm not even that old but i relate. When i was a teen learning about puberty induced attractions, internet porn was lower image quality than most gifs i see on facebook.
When my 2 or 3 closest friends and me got one of the older kids in the neighborhood to buy us some playboy and penthouse mags at the local gas station, those things were sacred texts for a few months. We hid them in our secret hideout, ogled them, and then - and i think this is important - remembered what we saw to wank in the privacy of our own beds.
You just solved this debate for me. Its the same as any other in our modern era. We had similar things in the past (tv vs youtube, activists vs social media virtue signalling) but in the "olden days" we had delayed gratification.
Even when you had your dads whole hustler collection at your fingertips, you still had to pick up a magazine and flip through pages to find one static image to build your fantasy around. Now, you start on any random hardcore video, and it autoplays the next one.
Desensitization isnt from there being more porn, or easier access, its from ease of consumption. I can still get off (with much effort mind you) from one good picture and my imagination. People who cant get off unless theyre watching literally the most hardcore scenes at 1.5x speed, they dont have a porn problem. They have an instant gratification problem
