Comment on Surgeons have to have *really* strong stomachs
XeroxCool@lemmy.world 1 day agoSame. I’m guessing such shock and gore videos have become too relatable along with a healthy increase of empathy. Plus, both of those were about sex acts, so if you were 15-25, horny brain dumb, horny brain no think deep, hormones raging.
2G1C, c2010: haha poop, ewww 2G1C, c2020: poop. Ew. Why are they doing this? We’re they paid enough? We’re they too desperate? We’re they forced? Can you imagine the smell? Did they get sick? Severely ill?
I forget if Hands was the jar or the horse, but living in the /b/ world, I’m sure part of the punchline and disassociation was that it’s gay. At the time, I was one of those “I don’t hate gay people, but don’t let me see it”. Now I see how ridiculous that is, to demand the world conform to my viewing pleasure preferences (oooobbbviously, hot lesbians would be hot and NOT gay). Now I realize how only recently, LGBT+ have gotten rights, how they recently weren’t even legally allowed to be public, how other parts of the world consider it a death sentence. Now I know everyone has their kinks and that safe sex knowledge and safe toy access should be human rights. So maybe, just maybe, it was a deeply misfortunate series of events that led him to injury/death, chasing something he couldn’t discuss with knowledgeable people openly (either never inset hollow glass or no, you cannot handle the force of a horse). I’m not saying bestiality is fine, but there’s clearly no shortage of horse cock dildos or other animals.
The one that I think started to change me was the hammer murder, pounding the guy’s face in. I can still hear his dying breaths. There was no joke there, no humor, no real identifiable dissociative marks except the language. Just a murder on video, circulated all the same as 2G1C or Mr. Hands or… 1 Guy 1 Jar? Or waifu hentai , or heartfelt discussions on anime, or rape, or actual torture porn, or laughing at death videos from China/India. I have way too many empathetic considerations now for people to ignore all of that just because I liked the short format porn.
And then I think about the posters, too. I assume they’re evil, but I of course know no one is born evil. What went wrong? Society, government, school, work, social media, manosphere influencers?

For me it was “I get that this is a sex thing, but I don’t get how anyone could get off to this. I also don’t see why people are getting so grossed out by it, though”
Now it’s more “Ehh, not enough plot for me to care.” At least from a media side. From thinking of the workers, I doubt they were paid enough, but also there was an interview with the producer who did say that it was both a trailer for a larger film, and not actually real. Certainly convincing! But not actually real.
Hands is the horse, 1 guy 1 jar was the jar.
Another interview: He’s alive (as of 2013, anyway, but he’s from Ukraine), and he did it just because he wanted to be able to fist himself. Granted, the interview was just posted on a forum, so take it with a grain of salt. Even if it wasn’t it’s not like his face was in the video, and we’d be able to verify it.
Yeah I never finished those. By that point I’d spent enough time on LiveLeak to know what was coming, and knew I’d hate it. Extreme fear of death related to OCD, and even knowing it was coming was enough to throw me off for the rest of the day.
Loooootta things can. I never posted them, but I know people who did. There’s a video by Innuendo Studios, the whole channel’s political, and this video is no exception, but if you look up “Innuendo Studios how to radicalize a normie” on YouTube that’s the video. You often only need a handful of very small things going wrong, or even going right, and the wrong support structure. It can literally just be graduating highschool while not having a super supportive family. With me it was my grandmother (who raised me up until that point) dying, and making a friend who was on /b/. That was it.
