Is this an attempt to help and inform the public about content or is it the first strains in an overture of forthcoming censorship? Or perhaps political correctness gone beserk?

Who decides what is good, bad or ugly? How are the decisions reached.

I, for one, intensely dislike being told what I should and should not read or watch and have today changed my search engine from Google to Dogpile.com
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
