To be fair to the guy you are commenting to, it auto plays while scrolling through Lemmy, at least on mine. So I can see some people may end up seeing it that didn’t want to. 🤷
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.
Not everyone enjoys watching others die.
Then don’t watch a video labelled plane crash?

Velma is a woman, not a guy.
So?
Oof, someone downvoted you for this? I’m sorry, that’s super petty. Thank you for saying something!
Your aggressive feminism does not go uncelebrated behind the scenes. Yw.

Fine, then throw a CW at least.
You don’t need to dig your heels in on insisting people should watch this death video.
I agree, there should’ve been some warning at least. It is tragic and horrific.
Thank you, that’s the only point I was trying to make.
