It absolutely is a failing of the individual. It can still be a "disease" at the same time.

A few of them may be addicts and we extrapolate it to the whole group.

Oh please, most of them are. Drug addiction is the leading cause of prolonged homelessness, followed by mental illness.

Often times the unhoused become addicts after they experience homelessness,

And often times their addiction caused them to be homeless. I'm not sure what value there is in trying to prove exceptions when the general trends are clear as day.

Society has failed them.

I used to work at a homeless shelter when I was doing some community service work and I can tell you first hand most of them don't want help. They don't care. They just want drugs. They get offered treatment opportunities all the time but they refuse because they can't get loaded.

So, your opinion is that any and all violent content is never a concern, and is appropriate for any age, even small children?

"So YoUr OpInIoN iS" shut up lol. I didn't say that. I just said violence is much different than sexuality, and thats reflective of how society treats the two topics in media.

Sex is so much different than violence. Sexuality is something is developed over the life of a person and can be heavily influenced by early exposure. Where violence isn't spurred on by video games (unless you are one of the boomers complaining that video games cause violence) because shooting people isn't a part of normal life.

No, I just don't want needless sex in my games. I don't care to make it illegal or anything but I'm speaking out that I do not enjoy sexuality in video games and think if that's something people desire, they can find that sort of content elsewhere.
