I understand the idea of shielding people from content that would be upsetting, but my own experience is, that I feel a little anxious as soon as I read Trigger Warning […].

How is your experience with it? Are you happy with it, or do you thing there are better ways to address dark topics?

    I like it as it helps with keeping the vibe right. It would detract from certain specific cases that rely on the element of surprise to give you the full effect. If there was a list of trigger warnings for doki doki literature club, for example, it wouldn’t hit you right

    I dont have any super PTSD/trauma/psychological scar triggers or anything though so my opinion doesnt hold much weight here, I’m not who they’re for.
