Like most things I think depends on the instance. Like when someone put out one for the gay man being beaten in IT 2. It’s a violent horror film. Use some damn common sense.

I'm ok with people using trigger warnings if they wish. But I have a problem with people demanding them in a classroom setting. If you *need* trigger warnings do bad you demand the use, then you should get a therapist note and make a private ADA claim to work with you.

Problem is, most people don't simply think they need them for themself, they think everyone should get them and this should be dictated.

I'm not a fan of trigger warnings. I've come across things that have brought back my past trauma's and I see that as an opportunity for me to grow and work on not letting the trauma affect me as much. It takes a ton of work to grow but this helps me.

trigger warning has been shown to increase people’s negative reaction to what otherwise would’ve been a low anxiety experience. It also increases people’s perception that trauma survivors are fragile and vulnerable. While good to empathize, this form doesn’t accomplish its goal

It’s a tumblr fad that caught on without empirical backing Research suggests it’s not helpful and increases anxiety and avoidance https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/beautiful-minds/are-trigger-warnings-actually-helpful/ …

Why can't you remain neutral like Switzerland?

Write for your audience. There are folks who engage with a lot of traumatized people who should include them, if their community asks for them. Then there is the general public stuff where one can expect neither warnings nor a deft hand with sensitive topics.
