I’m not really fond of judging #philosophers and #intellectuals of eons past by today’s #civilized #norms, but I make an exception when those thinkers make claims to absolute infallibility.
Surely somebody who had recalled the experiences of countless past lives would have the insight to understand that visualizing young girls as corpses is not really advisable. Not conducive to good innocent friendship with those young ladies nor for ones reputation generally speaking

"Norms"
A tale -
Abraham Lincoln once asked one of his secretaries, "If you call a tail a leg, how many legs does a horse
have?".
"Five," replied the secretary.
"No," said the President, "The answer is four. Calling a tail a leg doesn't make it a leg."

I was a teen woman at a time when we dated people 5 or 10 years older than us with little to no social stigma. Everything was fine. Today's social norms are based solely on hysteria. Nothing more.

'How Positive Media Can Make Us Better People'
▪️ Media can have harmful or helpful effects.
▪️ Meaningful media tend to portray prosocial behavior aspirationally.
▪️ Prosocial media elicit elevation, motivating viewers to become better people themselves.
❓ If positive media can make us "become better" could other media make us "become worse"?
❓ Are positive impacts from positive media stronger if it is intentionally created for this purpose?
❓ Have you read a book or watched a movie that made you want to "become better"?
