The difference between what was said on TV and what was said in meatspace was much greater back then.

Yes, the youth don't understand that as you go further back in time the more chaste the media gets, the more purile and violent the people of the time actually were. You may get hit a couple of times in the pit at your local deathgrind show, but you could have easily gotten stabbed at a Beach Boys concert.
