Western culture used to be positive.
The banksters, and their media scumbags are sabotaging the west. People act out what they see on TV.

The problem is, when "Happy Days" was the top show on TV, and the network censors wouldn't even let Fonzi wear a leather jacket unless he had his motorcycle with him because otherwise he'd look too rough... the murder rate was almost 10 per 100K, twice of what it is now.

There's just no clear correlation between how heavily we censor the airwaves and how likely people are to harm each other.

You're equating violence with tv?
Cars drove with leaded fuel back then. Tens of thousands of people were traumatized by murdering people in Vietnam.
There's certainly a correlation with media exposure and behavior.
If this wasn't a fact, then Commercials wouldn't exist.
Your example is absurd.
Propaganda is extremely effective.

Um, no, I'm not equating violence with TV. I'm doing the opposite: showing that violence doesn't correllate well with censorship.
It's true that corporations have been hopping on the bandwagon of social movements to try to see if they can squeeze a buck out of them, but they didn't create the social movements.
