    I remember when I was a young tween I saw trans porn on a shock-site that my “friend” directed me to. It was apparently supposed to disgust me, but I actually liked it and that is when I started to realize that I am trans, but I repressed it until I was 16 because I lived in a conservative area and all I heard for years was negative stuff and it really did a number on my mental health.

    I did also see other stuff like eel soup (I think that is what it was called) and I looked up a video of someone commiting suicide after my mental health went down the drain. I also saw uncensored decapitation on the front page of reddit a few months back, so far I am glad I haven’t seen stuff like that on lemmy yet.

      Execution was a public spectacle just a few hundred years ago, and gory combat was just a sporting event in Rome… For the last few hundred years humans have seen less gore and dismemberment than at any other time in human history.
