ballza evening, Anon.

What do you think about watching people die? Not necessarily in person, either; there are plenty of snuff videos out there. I personally find it extremely distasteful. I think that death is an intensely personal experience. It's the end of our personal sojourn in the world of the living, the ultimate finality of our own story. I don't think that is something that should be shared with just anybody, and in the case of snuff vids, to strangers for their amusement or to sate their morbid curiosity. At this most intimate moment, we should give those departing from this world the privacy they deserve out of humanity and common decency.

Perhaps the exception is those who have been sentenced to death. I think that's part of the punishment, losing control of the final moments of one's life, including who is able to bear witness to it. The state takes away this right in retribution for doing the same to another.

What do you think about all this?

I think we must accept that people's final moments are frequently made public without their consent. It's shitty and wrong, but it happens. So I watch gore without guilt. It helps me cope with the finality of life.

Who cares what dead people think? They're dead.

I mean, sure, sometimes dead people had nice ideas back when they were alive, but it is up to the living to determine what's worth acting upon.

What about their relatives, though? I mean, how would their mom feel knowing that their kid's death is available to see on the internet?

If the dead person is doxxed, there's always the possibility that jerks will send their relatives pictures of the corpse like they did to the family of Nikki Catsouras. Her siblings had to be homeschooled and her parents stopped going on the internet because people kept showing them the body.

I fall under the "morbid curiosity" category. I think curiosity is one of the most important traits for a human to have.
