For my opinion music of Manson is something about counter culture, not about violence. Music videos? Yes they are creepy but this is an open horror, not hidden and you know what will be, you are ready for this. I think there are more problems with hidden horror in videos, where violence is hidden in the subtext.
Influence of his music on young people nowadays is almost minimal. He is human and getting older. But if we are talk about his "influence on teenagers in 00's" I think that problem was not in him or his music but in society of that years! There was some good words from him interview:
