I feel like there’s a certain amount of violence that’s very male and if you’re taught some things it plays out as goofy humor. A guy who would never dream of hurting an animal drives a truck through watermelons and it’s the funniest thing ever. But the flip side is really dark, there’s this fine line where even the humor finds a weaker target for self justified torture.
I think if you taught kids a certain amount of softness - and partly through empathy for THEM - you’d have guys who were just the loud goofy humor aspect, not the domestic abuser or xenophobic sadist part.
