Before you can upload anything to YouTube, you need an approved account and that filters out impulsive crime right off the top. However, Facebook and apparently other social networks permit unrestricted video uploads directly from the user's mobile device.
When you're thinking of suicide, sometimes the jumper wants to hurt as much as possible those are involved in his life. What easier way to do that than tap into Facebook and stream the leap. It's only a matter of time until Facebook Live greets video from a jumper from the Golden Gate Bridge who did stream his leap and submitted it online.
Washington Post: A Thai man hanged his infant daughter on Facebook Live — then hanged himself, reports say
His wife saw the video and the jumper got all the horror and pain he could possibly want so, naturally, the Pain Merchants were there to film her.
There's a fiendish feasting on horrors of this nature and Facebook absolves itself by saying, well, we try really hard to stop that.
Apparently they don't try hard enough but, in fact, they hardly try at all when this type of obscene outrage happens repeatedly and uniquely on Facebook.
The social networks have become the world's capitals for the believers in IOM which means It's Only Me (and nothing else matters). When Facebook Live has featured suicide, torture, and murder multiple times, it's gone just a wee bit past the simple narcissism which has so characterized that medium previously.
While television did not work so well as the soma for the masses it was predicted to be, Facebook has been perfect. Kids need Facebook to stay in touch with their friends. If that didn't make you laugh then read it again.
Note: according to report, young people are bailing out of Facebook since likely they're fed-up with the endless cat or meal pictures too.
The sociological damage inherent in the social networks hasn't fully revealed itself but creating a cloistered, artificial environment and calling that an online home would be far-fetched if we could not watch it happening. It turned out soma wasn't so much a state of mind but rather a place of being inside which the state of mind doesn't matter that much.
We saw the wild distortion of the last election, often by people who would be challenged by painting fences, and there's a good chance a great deal of that was enabled online since there's small chance of any serious discussion that way.
Typical interaction:
Facebooker A: I believe in Socialism
Facebooker B: your ass and your mama fucks dogs
Facebooker A: you hurt my feelings. Please like my post.
The end
That type of simplistic polarization of people combined with the reduction of response to simple binary like/dislike thinking resulted in "World War Z Niner Niner," the last of the Wars Against the Nightmare Ghouls who come to eat your brain.
They come quietly in the night but at the last they start chanting, "We don't think; we don't have to."
Then they eat your brain by cracking it open like you crack a lobster claw. Deee-lish.
Here's the best part since they do that while you're still alive and they enjoy eating your brain for as long as they can without killing you so they can watch and enjoy it all. Surely you can forgive them that much since life offers few other pleasures to a Nightmare Ghoul from Online.
