      Question is, why are we marking videos NSFW when there’s nothing to it. I’ve seen many.

        I’ve seen so many.

        Because no matter how many NSFW videos you watch, it doesn’t change the video being NSFW.

        You realize you are not the only person in the world, right? And that’s why standards and conventions exist?

          Thanks for the reminder…I nearly forgot that I’m not the only person in existence…pfff…arrogant P*!K!

          It still does not change the fact that this video does not really qualify as a NSFW video…people at Work will watch this and not get in any trouble …at work!

            See that’s where we disagree though, and is the entire point that I’m making. Just because you won’t “get in trouble” doesn’t mean it isn’t NSFW.

          But you didn’t actually see anyone die. You know it from news reports. Also I’m not referring to this video. I just think the NSFW label is overused and abused in terms of click-baiting.

            It is, and it also becomes a weapon for the growing puritan culture.

            But a huge explosion, that’s a plane crash, where 9 people die in an accident is still NSFW. It is not a video of cute cats playing in the sun, it is a video of people fucking dying, even if you can’t easily make out people bits explode in the fireball.

              Perhaps your argument would work…50 years ago? Today with trump and ubiquitous cams…this is everyday news. People getting shot in schools, and doing crazy stuff. It really brings the reality to the fore front on our existence. We are easily extinguish…and all life is precious…so we should all endeavor for peace and coexistence.

                No I get it, things have absolutely changed. Things that 50 years ago would be gross and offensive today is casual or even still professional speak and vice versa. That still doesn’t change the fact that I think it is and should be considered NSFW or have a caution or warning that it contains death.

            Fine, then throw a CW at least.

            You don’t need to dig your heels in on insisting people should watch this death video.

          It’s just a window into the horrible moments as people suddenly realize they are about to die and are unable to prevent it. It’s NSFL because it’s likely to stick with you long after you’ve heard it.

        No shit. I didn’t listen to it on purpose. I did read the transcript.

        With this type of topic, we should be giving people the choice to opt in to watching it by putting a CW or NSFW.

      Is it NSFW? There’s no gore, no nudity, and no swearing. The title and community already state it’s not exactly feel good but I don’t see anything that you wouldn’t see in any Marvel movie.

      Some servers (including the one I’m on just now) don’t show anything tagged as NSFW, as an easy means of complying with stupid internet laws. Using the NSFW tag as a catch all term for anything you may not want to see then censors large amounts of content.

        Why would you be involved in a server that blocks content like that. Basically every Lemmy browser has the option to not show NSFW content. This shouldn’t be done at the instance level and should be left for the user. You should move instances.

        What?? Nine real people DIE instantly in a fucking fireball explosion in this video.

        Of course this should be tagged NSFW.

        Fix your server, get on a different one, fix your laws, or figure out a way to bypass the block. Don’t not comply with community standards that everybody else uses because your country is messed up.

        that’s a problem with your server, and not one the rest of fedi should have to accommodate.

        Yes watching this video knowing that 9 people have died upon impact makes this a death video.

        What’s so wrong with erring on the side of caution and putting NSFW or a CW up?

        The title and community already state it’s not exactly feel good but I don’t see anything that you wouldn’t see in any Marvel movie.

        Just because you are desensitized to watching death doesn’t mean the rest of us are.

            Maybe death videos shouldn’t be pushed so easily into people’s timelines. Let people choose to watch it if they want.

              Right back at you.

              This video was one of the top stories on the BBC’s website today and I’m sure many other news websites around the world. It was “censored” by pausing for 1 second at the point of collision but otherwise it was the exact same video.

              If the BBC are putting it on their front page it’s unlikely to be NSFW.

                Yeah defending the BBC is always the right move lol

                I still think death videos should be opt in and not pushed to everyone’s front page without any warning or censoring.
