I find it stranger year over year that we keep turning the world into a functionally shittier place for all but the owner class, yet we keep insisting on raising children to believe they have sunshine and lollipops waiting for them in the world.

Fuck that. And I say that as a parent. My kid watches Hazbin Hotel, Archer, Rick and Morty, etc, and context is provided.

Have fun lying to your kids through omission by pretending the world is fair, wholesome, and rated G until they're a tween though. Most of them already know the shit you tried to hide from them through their friends unless you sequester them at home which is also a disservice to them.

This isn't about protecting the kids. It's about protecting the panel-goers from having to be around annoying kids.

Was the panel listed as "adults only"? Lots of kids were watching the pilot on YouTube. I'd say a substantial volume of its audience is 8 to 12 year olds.
