ETA: Well, it\\\'s been a week with no replies, so let the pruning commence. (Incidentally, I left in the Anime/Manga examples, even though they were all pretty recent, because any work made in Japan that becomes popular in the US, or vice versa, is an example of this trope almost by definition, but I\\\'m open to the idea that that means that Anime/Manga examples also ought to be excluded unless they also resonate across time.)

Am I the only one who finds it a little troublesome that some of the examples on this page refer to television shows that are still on the air? [[SarcasmMode Oh my gosh! Isn\'t it amazing how works created in the long-ago era of the 1990\'s still resonate today?]] Most of the examples on the ValuesDissonance page are either from time periods prior (or nearly so) to living memory, that is, before modern audiences were born, or from cultures widely separated by geography, religion, or philosophy. It seems to me that for this trope to have any real meaning, the value in question has to resonate across a similarly wide gulf in time, space, or culture. Otherwise, we\'re just talking about how the values in a work can resonate with the same culture that produced and was the primary audience for a work. As it is right now, this trope reads like PeopleSitOnChairs. Is there any strong reason I shouldn\'t start pruning a lot of examples?
