When a foreign people are killing your people, it's correct to focus on it.
Ignoring reality is what your masters want you to do because that is how they control you.
The fact that the terrorists want you to take notice of their actions does not imply that you should bury your head in the sand. To say otherwise is the ideology of an idiot.
Noah Peterson
It's a choice between confirming your biases or ignoring the problem altogether.
I've seen my fair share of this shit. Before that I watched tons of gore shit back in the day.
I can tell you seeing the beheading videos did cause a rise in me. I only sought out the next video that became the topic of news though, not just trying to find anything. It made me angry and I didn't understand other people that didn't care about dealing with Islamic terrorism.
Jacob Jackson
>people who watch the normal violence in Muslim majority countries become worried that it could happen to them HOLY SHIT WHAT A FUCKING REVELATION SOMEONE GET THESE (((SCIENTISTS))) A FUCKING NOBEL PRIZE GROUNDBREAKING WORK ABSOLUTELY UNPRECEDENTED it's all so fucking tiresome.
none of the isis videos are too big of a deal. the Mexican cartel torture videos are the ones that are hard to watch. Isis vids are merciful and humane compared to them
Ayden Miller
>Understanding how to prevent such a "spiral of fear" will be an important topic for further research. So basically lefties are trying to figure out how we can dig our head sand even further.
Jayden Smith
>findings also imply that watching such coverage may assist terrorists in achieving their goal of instilling fear no shit sherlock
Juan Gutierrez
Also, I'm not sure why they keep using the word 'fear'. It's more about hatred and disgust. Nobody is afraid of trannies, gays and muslims.
Dylan Murphy
>Are we radicalising ourselves
maybe the real dangerous radicalised are not the one who has watched the ISIS videos, but the ones who have done the ISIS videos.
Just my 2cents.
Nicholas Scott
>People who view reality are more likely to be concerned regarding realistic threats to their civilization.
Dylan Morales
I don't really feel anything after watching gore videos anymore. The only vid to ever made me feel anything is that one where the family is driving down the highway and a brick goes through the their window and kills the wife, and you don't even see any of it.
Justin King
I always avoid gore have never watched any of the notorious vids on the internet.
I watched the Christchurch video though and felt nothing didn't even increase my pulse rate just pop pop and subhumans dropping over.
Nolan Torres
well they are shocking in the high definition montage and scenes they set up. but the mexican cartel videos are so disgusting my brain forces me to avert my eyes.
yes just desensitize yourself user and be a good goy
Carson Cox
>may help the goal of terrorists spreading fear
You really think that's what's going on here? What we are trying to accomplish? Personally, I'd wager you wouldn't be able to find anyone to fight your wars, legitimately, if you didn't have people like us thanklessly reminding everyone that our nations are at war with savages.
All our enemies, particularly radical Islam, have a multitude of systems in place to ensure they have a constant stream of fresh meat for the grinder... what do we have??? Advertisements of teenage Swede lads holding dildos, saying gays and women are welcome to combat!? Have you labcoats no concept the type of the mentality required to wage a war? The current plan has *barely* won the hearts and minds of our enemies, yet totally sacrificed the hearts and minds of legitimate citizens... for what??
Make Jow Forums your boogeyman or whatever bullshit you need to do to keep that grant money flowing, just know it is you- the spineless cowards and hypocrites of this world- who really prop up terrorists all in all.
Andrew Evans
>made me angry and I didn't understand other people that didn't care about dealing with Islamic terrorism.
do you think it applies to other types of videos, like there are often Chinese or black hate threads, so we watch those vids too and it has the same effect. Like it makes us think, yes they are insect people or are violent or whatever.
We are intentionally seeking out these videos and radicalising our views on these people?
Liam Hill
I can confirm that watching Shoveldog.mp4 when I was 12 made me a worse person.
Jacob Torres
isn't that wild tho? look at how much suppression on the Christchurch vid contrasted with the showing of high def, slickly produced ISIS vids. this shit doesn't add up.
>watching graphic coverage may exacerbate preexisting fears >of an actual war crime happening right now >its just a fear Yeah guys. Nothing to see here. The world isn't falling apart. Move along. Now those damn nazis i tell you what.
So by implication the researchers promote denial as the healthy response to terrorism?
Adrian Hughes
The only webm that shocked me was a bunch of faggots playing with their prolapse anuses. That was fucking disgusting honestly
Easton Campbell
the ones where they get kids to do it are quite bad
Blake Morris
>it instills not fear but hatred is something wrong with me
it's disgust for me. It's like after I see any of those types of videos I feel we can't let any of those people near us
Samuel Peterson
aztec know how, they've perfected their skills over thousands of years
Asher Martin
Yes. I've seen enough.
Christian Johnson
yeah that one strangely gets me more than other more gruesome videos. I think it's the normality and randomness of the situation, like it could happen to anyone at anytime
Josiah Edwards
>muslims kill people >but watching them do it is WORSE!
the car hitting a pedestrian type vids make me paranoid when I'm walking outside. Accidents can happen at anytime very quickly. Often it won't be the pedestrian's fault at all.
Colton Cruz
>why Because that's the reality we live in >it's effect Terrorism is part and parcel of living in a big city :)
Ayden Hill
If videos of Muslim fanatics committing acts of terrorism and beheading people could be suppressed, beheadings and terrorism wouldn't exist.
>no source >50 replies you troglodytes are the reason they're co-opting this board
Samuel Butler
just obey, stay passive and you'll be happy and content with your life. ignore your brothers and sisters being beheaded...
Logan Thomas
>The work raises some important questions, not least: how should news programmes handle coverage of such horrific events? Running the beheading footage in full on a mainstream news channel would have been unthinkable. But was the storm of coverage alluding to the content really necessary?
these things aren't shown on TV.
Justin Fisher
I know a handful of people who watched that shit and they don't fit any of those categories
Meanwhile I fit into those categories and have no interest in any of it maybe I'm trapped in Bizarre world
Charles Barnes
As if it's a bad thing to be alert and aware
Levi Baker
lol this is so retarded
"pre existing fear" and "spiral of fear" LOL I LOVE HOW THEY USE FEAR
FEAR LITERALLY MEANS THE ABILITY TO DO 2+2 AND CARING ABOUT OUR RACE/NATION
you start out with 2+2 then you keep running down the rabbit hole of figuring out that a below replacement birthrate + migration = no more whites AND THEN OH GOD
did it ever occur to them that these beheading videos are... REAL? that they ACTUALLY HAPPENED? that someone DID THAT TO ONE OF US?
have they studied the effects of watching schindler's list?
Adrian Ortiz
your study implicated people who watch more TV than average i seriously hope i don't share a board with them
Jack Kelly
>Being aware of things that happen in the world makes you less naive. >Being less naive is negative.
What a world we live in.
Dylan Martinez
>unemployed men are getting angry well color me fucking shocked doesnt help when said men get a job and they tax them to give their money away to other NON citizens. color me fucking shocked. >what is economics
>how should news programmes handle coverage of such horrific events? >was the storm of coverage alluding to the content really necessary?
It seems to be the approach. If we look at terrorist events, like the one in Holland yesterday for example, if they don't label it as terrorism and they just say he's mad then people won't react or get scared.
Oliver Diaz
>watch more TV than average >TV You know this study is bullshit.
Isaiah Reyes
>fear >fear >fear >fear when does rage come into it?
Owen Thomas
To be honest everything looks like a false flag compared to that cartel shit, more gore than a slaughter house film
Redmond, S., Jones, N. M., Holman, E. A., & Silver, R. C. (2019). Who watches an ISIS beheading—and why.American Psychologist.Advance online publication.
Because isis vids is produced by a studio. If you have any minor experience with film and video editing it's clear as day that the isis vids are bullshit. All of those camera angles, cuts, and other effects take a lot of time to edit and cut together. Not something you can easily do while fighting a war right?
Luis Wilson
>fear Not an emotion ive felt watching any mudshit videos. Though after years of careful study and analysis ive concluded id rather be captured by any islamic group that a cartel. Also i love crusader vids though too few and far between.
This is common knowledge, though you don't see shills posting Europeans committing inhumane acts on the regular because we happen not to do such things outside of state sanctioned war operations. You would think that if political opponents wanted to quell racism they would flood the internet with white people acting like niggers to make other white people come to the fear based conclusion that every human ever is senselessly violent but OOPS this doesn't seem to be happening even at such a late stage in the social decline we're witnessing. I wonder if perhaps that's because white people aren't animals that often break out into violent rampages without fair provocation. Who would've thunk it.
They are not aztec, aztek were wiped out, they are mayan.
Jack Roberts
I understand what you are saying, but lots of normies don't think like this. They don't seek out these videos and are oblivious to ideas about race and birth rates. They care about sport or TV shows or whatever. I asked a girl the other day what she thought about what happend in new Zealand she had no idea about until her friend prompted her with "somebody shot up a school or church". She had no opinion on it.
>CARING ABOUT OUR RACE/NATION
lots of people, especially women don't think like this at all
Wyatt Sanchez
When its you behind the camera.
Nicholas Kelly
That makes absolutely zero sense; most ISIS videos are muslims.
Adam Walker
>the truth is scary Whooda thunk it?
Luke Nguyen
who do think is the target for these videos. They keep saying Muslims are being radicalised by these videos but it turns out it's us.
Levi Turner
As one of these persons i can tell you they are somewhat correct
>Male yes >Unemployed somewhat > Christian no im between Agnostic an Atheist i dont believe in a God more so Engineers
I'v seen many terrorist videos >did it instilling fear NO it had the opposite effect, it showed me what people are capable of , an made me more alert to my surroundings when i go out in public .
Cooper Thompson
Jow Forums is a containment site for newfags. All the oldfags are on jibjab
Ayden Parker
>Watching ISIS videos exacerbates preexisting fears >Videos create a negative psychological impact >Ignore the ideology and immigration of people who make the videos It's not the people who make the videos fault. It is your fault for watching them.
Joseph Gomez
>oh no this is what to expect for our future >I wish I didn't watch this
This. I watched the entire video of him killing those muslims and by far it was the tamest thing i've seen. >no blood >barely any fightback >screaming was barely audible It felt less like a murder seen and more like a bizarre "found-footage" movie. Christ, half the old rekt threads on /gif/ were more gruesome than that fucking video.
