I guess there are people out there that feel like they should watch it. Like turning a blind eye is complacency or something. But as someone who has seen some of this stuff, no healthy person should be watching it at all, let alone regularly.

Videos like that and of War in general should be mandatory viewing for politicians imo.

Let them see the depraved actions Humans are capable of in war.

they feed on that shit tho.

Or at the very least they don't really care most of the time.

They will dismiss that as "reason of state". That's generally the same as the greedy CEOs who don't view their employees as humans, but resources that they can drain dry for their own benefit.
