I do not desire to be beheaded. I do not derive pleasure from seeing others be beheaded. However, being beheaded is sometimes a part of the human experience. The world is a place that contains beheadings. It simply is.
The internet, in the absence of external manipulation, will tend to contain the whole world within it, including everything dark or unpleasant.
I want the internet to be a force for authenticity and disintermediation. I want it to be wild and anarchic and beautiful and dangerous. If that means I see a beheading occasionally, so be it.
- gitgud 5y agoSome good points, though giving a platform for people to upload and view "beheading videos", is implicitly condoning it. Should the the platform condone such things?... To me no they shouldn't condone some things, even if they are true. The dark web is the indescriminant place that you're looking for that contains the dark unaltered truth's of the world...
- tonyedgecombe 5y agoThe trouble is any site hosting stuff like that isn’t neutral in these behaviours. There is a strong argument that if the perpetrators didn’t have an audience for the beheadings then they wouldn’t perform them.
