You could say that I watch gore content a little bit—though not the super-explicit stuff that shows people being chopped up piece by piece like cartel videos. What I tend to look at, at most, are bodycam recordings from law enforcement officers (like from LEOs), and then helmet-cam footage—say, the GoPros strapped to the heads of armed units—in documentaries about murder cases or warfare. I'm particularly drawn to material that has some connection to national or international law, or that involves firearms in some way
When it comes to the most notorious gore-related suicides worldwide, for me it's Ronnie McNutt at the top, and then that other guy who used a Saiga shotgun—his video's title was something like "1444" or "4444," though I can't quite recall exactly. The basic idea is it was a long-haired Russian dude who, as far as I remember, was maybe a college student or at least an ex-student. Honestly, I watch that kind of stuff purely for research purposes—especially the American police bodycam clips, as well as various Russia-Ukraine war recordings or older GWOT (Global War on Terror) footage. There's action, there's context, there's background information, and it's not just mindless killing like the cartel-style videos from South America. And one more thing on the subject of gore: why are there so many memes out there made from ISIS execution videos? And the craziest part is they're treated like jokes—people find them hilarious lol—though, of course, that last bit is said with all due respect
