    I don’t think it’s that bad really. I feel like I was more traumatized as a kid by having a lot of pets with short natural lifespans, and just generally all the animal death and gore you are naturally exposed to by living in the country. With videos online it’s disturbing, depressing, and forces you to think about human suffering/mortality and the existence of evil people, but it’s ultimately just a video that isn’t connected to your life, that you can turn off, and probably most people learn to avoid pretty quickly.
