Title: NSFW: Worse than 4chan?
Post by: bear95 on Mon, 29 April 2013, 15:01:19
bestgore.com (read my post on bottom before visiting)

I feel so sick. After watching a traumatizing video on facebook of a women's head being cut off, I searched for it on google because I refused to believe it was real. Came across this website and ****...

If it's NSFW please add that disclaimer to the thread title.

Also, why?

Because you can of course.

And the fact there are no public executions pay-per-view on HBO.

I don't understand why would share this here. Its like saying "oh no I suffered but I shouldn't be the only one, let others suffer."

When I first stepped on the site, I went to a disturbing article directly. And I left ... scarred. But while I was there, I had to read the comments... I looked at the comments expecting people to be disgusted and horrified but to my even greater disgust, people didn't seem moved and casual...

I went back and I don't know why but I did. I went directly to the about page which is not nsfw because I wanted to know WHY!? The author presents the website's purpose as a news website providing the ugly side of humanity. Its purpose is to "exposes the truth about the humans as a whole and the truth is not always nice." But the websites url and the commenters prove otherwise. Than I clicked the fansigns page and man.... the commentors are more twisted than the articles... I thought this website has no purpose but to serve people with gory fetishes...

And then on the side of the website I came across the url for the boston massacre articles.... there was a video(not gory) of a man talking about what he experienced and the man was shaking and traumatized and there were other videos of the bombs going off. I heard of the boston massacre before but I wasn't honestly moved that much... after I saw this, I'm now wary of going out to public events. Most of this website is unnecessarily gory and uninformative but I felt that this particular article to me was informative. And linked to this article was a different video of people celebrating the capture and death of the suspects. After reading the first boston article, I did feel disgust at the terrorists but the way the people celebrated disgusted me equally.

I wouldn't have seen this without this website. I won't be going back to it because of its twisted purpose but its changed my perspective on news... and I don't think I'll read news the same way again. Toning down the violence of news is necessary but after my experiences, I've realized it doesn't convey a lot of necessary information...

I've read through a few of the articles...

Nothing very striking.. yada yada, dead body picture, yada yada..

There is no Ugly side to humanity... we all look decayed when we're dead, some sooner than others.. the whole thing is just life..

This thread shouldn't even be listed. Those who gain pleasure from viewing the torture or murder of another being are sick individuals.

People seem to mistake sadism for manliness. It only further cements my point of view.

but no one was saying they were enjoying it. the website itself was just a talking point, and as OP pointed out, it actually proved as eye-opening (at least to them) to some of the tragedy that goes on in the world. most of the reactions were just neutral or disgusted

Well I didn't click it either but the thread was mildly interesting... luckily I'm past the age where I feel the need to do weird stuff to prove myself. As far as I'm concerned bad stuff happens, death is normal, but people that actually enjoy watching stuff like that aren't. I suppose it's a small minority anyway, even among those who say they do.
In my day I watched 2 girls 1 cup because I was curious but sometimes it just isn't worth it :)
