teenagers aren’t the vanguards of the pro-censorship movement. the closest thing that happens to this is that bad actors who are adults exploit teenagers’ age-appropriate discomfort with violent and sexual art to incite internet stochastic terrorism campaigns. but even this happens far less often than adults just silencing children and pretending to be speaking for them by proxy.

i hate the misuse of the term “puritanism” in this context but the idea of teens (“puriteens”) being the principle driving demographic behind this cultural trend is genuinely pretty fucking insulting, considering adults who use kids and teens as a cudgel (“think of the children!”) are actually the people driving movements toward censorship.
