I get there is the le shock value, but some people get waaaay to in to it. There are entire communities centered around cartel torture/execution videos
if you think that's bad check out what became of WPD after they got banned from reddit and made their own site, it's pretty fucking weird and disturbing the shit they have going on there
yea i heard about that and that's what fucked with me for a while, people will just keep ruining themselves for online validation from faggots who get off to that shit and the site basically allowed it
