@coolboymew @Rasterman The Christians you speak of were correct to worry about entertainment's influence on their kids. They just picked some dumb targets.

White nerds rolling dice and telling stories were never a problem. Heck, have the kids do that and never watch the idiot box, and they'd instantly turn out a lot better.

The violent video games thing was pretty much Mortal Kombat, then panic over first person shooters after Columbine. To be fair, MK was and is pretty violent. I don't know if it was worth Congressional inquiries, but I could see not wanting that franchise to be marketed to kids. I myself haven't had much interest in the new entries, because there was an absurdism with the gore being rendered with sprites that rendered it tolerable. Seeing it with 4K polygons just becomes distasteful.

Harry Potter always struck me as silly to be worried about. Maybe if the kids were actually using it as an excuse to dabble in Ouija boards, what would be one thing. It was just silly wizardry. A tactical misfire to direct time and effort against it.

If I am being further charitable, the FCC and other Fed agencies had basically outlawed real talk about fags and nogs by that point, so maybe these moral panickers (I'm making that a word) had to settle on other things to worry about.

One could probably write a book about where everything went wrong, but I'd say the short version is the breakdown of family cohesion due to Jewish supported social policies, resulting in the idiot box raising kids, and Jewish propaganda shaping their minds. Simple as.
