I argue often that human social systems are best understood as formally Chaotic. They are the end results, approximately, of the interactions of actual principles with reality as it is lived.
When considering violent media, I have to, in principle, accept that some violent media may be actually beneficial. Maybe for some viewers Hostel is, on balance, something that improves their lives. It’s hard to see how this would happen, but it is not formally impossible.
In this view, violent movies in some cases support intrapersonal integration, social harmony, and benevolent outcomes. This is theoretical, but not beyond the realm of the possible.
This perspective is added in the pursuit of due diligence. I want to rest calmly in the contemplation of having done the thing right.
