Starting a thread with the equivalent of "You don't have to share your opinion if it makes you or someone else uncomfortable" is the most controversial thing I've seen today at least.

LinkedIn.

The complete and utter media black out on a genocide. I got banned from facebook 2 years ago for saying a war with a 1-to-50 casualty rate imbalance was more akin to massacre than a war.

That I remember seeing, Encyclopedia Dramatica. That shit made sure to document every disgusting shit that has ever "graced" the collective mind of the internet, like 2 girls 1 cup, zippo cat, 1 guy 1 jar and other shit. Me and my stupid morbid curiosity in reading it at least got me smart enough to avoid actually watching any of those videos.

They also had a shock page with extreme scat, goatse, prolapse and whatever else you can imagine that could shock people.

Hmmm. Three-way tie, TBH. I've been on the internet since before Netscape, so take this for what it's worth.

A child (maybe six?) being raped was definitely one of the worst; she was screaming and crying in the brief clip I watched. Apparently it was her father that was raping her; AFAIK he's in prison for life now. Hopefully his life in prison is very short. I'm not even sure how many years ago this was now.

Crush videos involving kittens on an .onion site about a decade ago. I clicked on a thumbnail just long enough to verify that yeah, it was what I thought it was, and then left the site. I've owned cats my whole life; if I knew someone personally that did that, I would absolutely kill them. Yes, I had a stronger visceral reaction to that than I did a child rape video, and no, that doesn't make any sense.

A video from Mexico showing a purported child rapist; he was restrained, and dogs were chewing his genitals off. He had those high, breathy screams of someone in agony that was unable to catch their breath. It ended after the dogs tore his entire lower abdomen to shreds and one of the cartel (?) members cut his throat. Maybe 15 years ago? I'm pretty sure that this was a hi-def video.

I didn't watch the video of the Russian officer cutting the head off a Ukrainian POW. I'm past the point of having any desire to watch videos that further decrease my opinion of humanity.

Watching Sadam Hussain getting hung.

Saw it on a computer at school with the whole class

Back when the styles project was a site and rotten.com posted real police photos. I was very young and into horror movies but that was over the edge.

Early Facebook days (ares and even Google lmao, tons of common results of those days now are part of the dark net) were wild, not gonna be specific but illegal shit that I didn't even search nor wanted to see

Honestly, my answers in specific wouldn't surprise anyone.

If it's fucked up and you could get away with it, at least one person out of 8 billion has done it. Then there's a chance they recorded and published it, and a chance any given person will find it.

The good news is that the other 99.99% of the time things are normal.

A kick streamer took a homeless woman out on a date in a restaurant then dine and dashed and left her w the bill.. on stream.... i seen all typa cartel gore shit in my time, but this is just a different type of evil. Even worse its a recent story too

As a young(er), morbidly curious and then still fairly naive dumbass, I went and clicked on some questionable link on a Reddit thread, and was introduced to something known as “Funky Town”.

That shit set me straight pretty well, been avoiding everything even remotely suspiciously feeling it might be or explicitly is gore-related, but the imagery alone still haunts me to this day, not to mention all the other stuff like imagining how any of the people involved must feel, both emotionally and physically.

I debated mentioning this by name for a fair bit, but I think this thread is specifically for this kind of thing, so I’ll leave it. Anyone clicking here is expecting horrifying things, so it won’t catch anyone off guard. But I STRONGLY RECOMMEND NOBODY GOES LOOKING FOR THIS SPECIFIC THING. You will not get it out from behind your eyes. Seriously.

an indian guy on a motor cycle being crushed by a truck

There's plenty, but maybe i put this one near tue top:
Two African terrorists cutting out the heart of a man, while he was alive and awake, giggling and laughing as he slowly moaned to death

Fair warning, I'm not here to judge but take it from someone who spent a lot of time trying to consume the most outrageous internet content to desensitise themselves - it all catches up eventually.

Anyway, this is some of the stuff that comes to mind:

Botfly extractions

Teenage girl suicide (hanging in a tree - too young to die IMO)

Microwaving kittens

Toybox killer transcript and tapes (I don’t like torturing people who don’t deserve it)

People having sex with aborted foetuses

I'll mention 2: Station Nightclub fire footage and a video of pigs being buried alive in response to a disease outbreak.

There was some website that I've blacked out that had horrifying video of people dying in accidents. I remember someone sent me a link with a motorcyclist being hit by a train. I never clicked another link from that site.

It was worse than tubgirl.

I watched faces of death when I was younger and I saw a hostage situation somewhere in south east Asia. Hostages were getting pulled out of the building on the tail end of the operation.

Mixed in must have a hostile because the security forces shot a guy with shotguns at short range.

It's like his whole chest and back opened up like a book.

I don't seek out gore like I used to. No ukraine war footage, no cartel videos. None of that. I know worse is out there just by hearing about it 2nd hand. (Like the infamous funky town video)

For sheer human evilness I've seen a beheading video, for pure gore I've seen some lathe accidents. I'm never going near a lathe.

I saw a group of psychotic cunts cut and eat a piece of someone's heart then laugh at his plea for mercy.
