My own answer is what got me thinking of the question.
People cheering for, happily celebrating or laughing at death or people dying.
At least to me, death is dark, serious, grim and horrible on a very fundamental level. Even if it is deserved or necessary it just isn’t something to be elated about. Human beings dying don’t combine with happy feelings.
I find it literally sickening. Usually it’s been in the context of people behaving horribly (for instance suicide encouragement, terrorism etc.) but todays lemmy feed also brought it out, and really made me think about why it made me feel that way.
Same. I get that the victim was a real horse’s ass (to put it mildly) but the response here has just been beyond sickening. Let’s just say my “block” button has been quite busy the last couple days.
