I am so sick and bloody tired of this kind of crap “research” And even more sick and tired of the weasel-word “inappropriate”–it’s used by cultural marxists to express their sniffy disapproval of anything they dislike and and fear, without having to define and defend the reasons for their disapproval.
And this “research” doesn’t seem to have considered that perhaps the reactions of the younger adults are faulty, as a result of their indoctrination by the state agents aka the skool system which has filled their heads with PC bullshit.
