I think getting desensitised to violence in games and movies is very different from getting desensitised to real violence.
I suspect a lot of people who wouldn't blink at someone getting stabbed or shot in a movie/game would have a very different reaction if they beheld something like that in real life.
I agree. Seeing a dead body period irl effects me completely different than video game violence. Which is why those news stories that seek to demonize violent games as effecting people are to me complete bs.
