I know a lot of people are scared of cancel culture or make the opposite mistake of reading it as momentary, temporary or at all new- or even specific to the current time. But the fact is that you\'ve mostly got three groups of people looking at these \

I know a lot of people are scared of cancel culture or make the opposite mistake of reading it as momentary, temporary or at all new- or even specific to the current time. But the fact is that you\\\'ve mostly got three groups of people looking at these \\\"spoilers\\\": assholes who don\\\'t intend to watch no matter how good/bad it is and thus physically cannot be spoiled (usually me), PTSD (mentioned above), and parents ensuring they don\\\'t *cause* PTSD in their kid (probably very rarely a spoiler, and *definitely* part of the process of curating and supporting the arts)

ETA TLDR: Throw the whole trauma thing out - imagine a person insists for political reasons that they will only buy tickets to movies about genocide, and imagine further that they just won\\\'t get satisfaction from a story about a genocide that isn\\\'t punished. Or is fictional, or isn\\\'t fictional, or that features a denier, or has a canon deity or doesn\\\'t, etc.
