I'm actually quite conservative on this issue, I am not particularly liberal or namby pamby at all. But I do believe it is common sense to look at things from all points of view and clean things up from top to bottom.
Lack of good parenting is just one of the concerns, but cultural mindset is another. Western societies like the UK and America are missing good parenting in the household and are lionizing and embracing destructive cultural mindsets. Such as rock, rap, being a bad boy, lack of emphasis on education, lack of respect for authority and elders, etc.
I did type in the other thread that I found a quote from someone in the online news section that the counter culture revolution of the '60s and their rejection of the social mores and values of the prior generation also contributed to a decaying society. I haven't looked into it yet by searching for studies. But this would make sense since the '60s was about, "Fuck the man, fuck authority, fight the power, free love, etc." Looking back it was a decade of decadence and debauchery, from illicit drug use to open sex, etc. Not to mention in America the Hayes code for movies was lifted, meaning that they can show more explicit sex scenes and violence on television and movies. You can say the 60s really changed and shifted the conservative nature of societies like America and the UK into a radically different place. And maybe what we see today is a result of discarding many of the conservative social mores beginning in the 60s about behavior and respect.
I don't see how any of those changes were bad.
If a million people listen to a rap/rock song and one is inspired to murder because of it. He's a mental. Fact. The music/film/art isn't the problem.
You're wrong. Fact.
Social factors play a series part in behaviour. The problem if you want to call it that is that there are many factors at work and not all will have the same impact as others.
Sun, sea and shrinking brain power - Telegraph
For men, this loss of intelligence may well be exacerbated by the vision of the opposite sex in bikinis. A 2008 study for The Journal of Consumer Research concluded that merely looking at women in beach garb “instigates generalised impatience in intertemporal choice”.
In layman’s terms, men’s judgment and self-critical faculties are compromised, and, in worst-case scenarios, they will propose to (or proposition) the first girl who winks at them.

Hilarious.
By observing
300 kids out of a world population of 6 billion, they've proved Starsky & Hutch fans are prone to driving offences and shoving.
Brilliant.
If they studied only 1 child their evidence would still be stronger than anything you produce.
That's true.
Actually.. no it's not.
I've lived around more than 300 people in my life. My observations have led me to confidently conclude

very scientific.
coloured by your own, experiences, upbringing, prejudices etc...
I guess so. I'm not a scientist.
To be honest... I'm a little drunk so can't really grasp the point of this?
