Wouldn't a kid just not understand what's happening though? We've all experienced watching something again as an adult and being like "ohhhhh THAT's what it's about."

And/or most kids recognize "this character is doing something bad," even if they don't understand the context, aren't we just talking another satanic panic here? Like how it was false alleged CoD or D&D makes kids into serial killers.

I'm not saying kids shouldn't watch it, though imo they shouldn't, just that there's no way I would be comfortable discussing it around a kid.

I think the danger is not in children understanding it, its that they'll misunderstand it, and with some topics you want to be careful to ensure a kid has the right background context to understand it.
