    @YourPrivatHater @riskable Over 100,000 WWII vets are still alive, today. People are being bombed right now, shelled right now, having white phosphorus dropped on them, right now.

    None of this is a “long time ago.” It is within living memory.

      And? Are we now shifting the argument onto a strawman over the definition of long time?

      It was a average lifetime ago. And the other claims are irrelevant in that context. Its not changing the fact that grave of the Fireflies isn’t appropriate for small children.

        @YourPrivatHater Most seem to disagree. Child psychologists disagree. Ratings boards in multiple countries disagree. Kids who have, and continue to watch this movie in Elementary schools growing up healthily is big evidence against it being inappropriate too.

        Maybe you’re just wrong? Maybe folks shouldn’t hide the truths of the world from their kids?
