DragonKing Dark: How ‘Seduction of the Innocent’ went after the comic industry
Free speech. Censorship. Right thinking. Moral policing.
All of these terms are hot button topics to various political and social groups. The more that things change, the more they stay the same as in 1954, a holier than thou psychiatrist took on the comic book industry with his infamous book, “Seduction of the Innocent”.
No matter what segment of pop culture they are after, be it video games, TV shows or books, the morality police are dangerous to the free thinking. But, it’s a double-edged sword.
