> Wait, so the UK isn't part of the West now? Since when?

I didn't say that. I am pointing out America is even more extreme about this than other traditionally western nations.

> Have you not looked at Japan? Shonen there has to be censored to be shown in the states. No showing Goku with a hole through his chest for American kids!

Weird how no one had effective guns until Super, but sure. Of course in the narrative of DBZ no one could die, so it's a bit different...

> And violent video games are popular practically the world over these days. It's true that America makes a large number of them, but it's hardly specific to the US, and certainly playing them isn't. To suggest otherwise is to betray deep ignorance on the subject.

I can't even work out what you mean by this. I didn't say they don't exist, just that alternatives do.

It's pretty clear to me you're having a conversation with me about something other than what I said. I'm not sure how I can fix that since your only positive statements are misrepresenting what I said.

So, good luck and good bye.
