Violence

Younger generation today are said to be desensitised from violence, games being the number one suspect because of there close to accurate images and there aim to strive for the best virtual reality game. Games are everywhere anyone in the world can use and play them , but does this really influence so much that games are solely responsible. 

Living in a todays world where nothing is like it used to be and the world itself is more violent and untrustworthy as ever can we put this down to the media or just the evolution of man. We are living right now where hundreds of people are fighting and dieing in a war that we no is there and yet games and medias are solely responsible.
Wild boys was known for the same theory a mass printed piece of media was the first of its kind aim at young men for entertainment. it was so new for its time that it was questions of unleashing violence. 
Now when todays generation looks at the piece that was said to be outrageously violent, this wouldn't really be seen to be offensive. This example show the every new technique gives ways to this kind of controversy, show that even violence evolves into new states.  
i think that as humanity evolves and we learn more and more about ourselves and this world that there will always be a new kind of violence levels because it moves with us.
When we see forms of violence we leave it up to ourselves to interpret them whether good or bad we still have the freedom of how we want to perceive it. Violence doesn't just come in the form of games and film but we can find them in animations such as tom and jerry, the simpsons, Road runner, because they are not trying to play reality they are easier to accept and focus on the stretching of reality. we are very forgiving when it comes to this topic because we know it only a cartoon in a way it sugarcoats it for us.
