"The problems I mentioned aren't real, that's the point."

Can you possibly think that determining what is and is not a valid problem isn't a subjective evaluation?

Even looking at your examples, which are not chosen well for your argument. In each of these you're just shifting the burden of proof to reflect what your values. "No one has proven counter strike causes violent behavior, consuming porn makes people rapists or people can become gay." All wide-open empirical questions.

If you are very concerned about your kid being violent, you will avoid videogames even as a precautionary measure.

"The fact that some organizations (particularly religious) "

Ah you found an even easier way to resolve the issue, just ignore religious values.
