I watched it ten times and I’ll probably watch it another 10 later tonight while sipping a nice Merlot.
Comment on if charlie kirk is so pro life then why is he dead?
bizarroland@lemmy.world 22 hours agoI was saying holy fuck because this was how I found out and I’ll skip watching the video because I’ve seen enough live leak from like 2008 to 2016 to satisfy any grotesque need for me to see somebody getting murdered for the rest of my life.

Yehhhh I have no idea how peeps are so fucked up by the vid, as a frequenter of eyeblech and nsfl__ when they existed. This is a breath of fresh air (blood?) in a world of horrible things happening to people who don’t deserve it

I wont lie, I watched the Saddam Hussein video like 2 years after the execution happened.
I’m a true-blue-center-of-the-generation millenial, who grew up on the internet (but avoided places like somethingawful) and I got squeamish over THAT video.
It was legit just a shot of his feet swinging but my brain just went “Thats not fake, not a movie, thats an actual human being”, and I got mad uncomfortable.
So, I feel zero percent sadness over CKs death (in fact legit delight! I’m currently out having drinks over it!) But I cannot fathom actually watching the moment a human being’s life flickers out.
I aint built for that.

I would say most of us are not built for that. Seeing all this horrible shit the internet offers you can’t be good for anyones mental health. In this sense: congratulations on escaping the desensitization.

It was pretty mild compared to the shit you might’ve seen on LiveLeak tbh.
I remember seeing a video called “unnecessarily slow beheading” there. After that, uh, seeing a stranger get shot just seems so mundane. It’s fucked.
