It would just end up giving me a headache to try to talk to this person. He is only a relative through marriage but that connection is to someone that I dearly love so I am stuck being superficially polite to him. If I talked to him, he would just go around in circles getting angrier and angrier with me. There really is no point.

Some people just love torture porn.

If you post explicit violent stuff and it comes up in my Facebook news feed, I'm deleting you. No warnings.

To me it's just sick how some people get off to this stuff, it's like they yearn for it. I couldn't bring myself to watch that Jordanian pilot being burned alive (people burning is one of my real problem areas) or the beheadings. I feel like the way some people share it around it kinda disrespectful to the person getting killed, and their families who might fall upon the image/video. Yeah sure talk about it in the news, we need to know, but I don't want to see it.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

Many of the posters on that site could care less about the truth. They just want to be angry or outraged.

You only have to look at how news of ISIS reached us. Killing fellow muslims, noone gave a shit. Killing Syrian christians. Mildly idignated. Killing Westerners. Splashed all over the frontpages.
