Hah yes this.
Some of the books I loved as a teen have really not held up, while others did and are clearly excellent.
But there were books I was also just not ready to read, and my opinions on them were a waste of space.

James you forgot the statutory rape. THE READER doesn't just want you to sympathize with a nazi concentration camp guard, it wants you to sympathize with a *rapist* nazi concentration camp guard.
there's going to be a movie about an ice agent who brutalized children and dragged people screaming from their houses but it's ok because it turns out he couldn't read.
If they're still making movies in 15-20 years there will be multiple Oscar noms for playing "remorseful / reflective former ICE agent who knows how Complicated history is"

A reader told me she was asked to take off her Hellebore “Wind in the Willows” jumper before entering Westminster Abbey. The reason given was that it depicts the devil and might offend people. The reader explained it was the Greek god Pan, but the security guard didn’t backtrack. Satanic panic 2025.

[explaining sex hormone effects to an alien] okay so estrogen gives bigger boob but smaller genital but testosterone gives smaller boob but bigger genital [note to reader this is a comedic oversimplification]
like "estrogen sort of massively reduces or eliminates the refractory period" it's not inaccurate to say "the perineum is now part of Big Pussy"
