Recently my face book wall has become saturated with images of men, women and even children trophy killers, all grinning with sadistic satisfaction over the corpses of creatures they have mindlessly murdered. What is this trend?? And so many women too? What is happening to people that they see fit to publicise such shameful acts, normalising the grotesque and sadistic instincts of the few before the masses as though it's just another lifestyle choice anyone can indulge in with impunity. Vicarious sadism, the dark side of social media's gift to humanity!
I believe to derive pleasure, whatever the reason, from mindlessly killing animals is the hallmark of a depraved human being and should not be sanctioned, or glorified in anyway what so ever. The culprits should derive no satisfaction from any form of public approbation. Let them find other ways to bolster their degenerate egos, spare the innocents.
How I feel about the animal victims is one thing and that's easier to understand and take a stand about...but what's really bothering me about this issue are the subliminal messages, the trends, the apparent unnatural realities these images inflict on our psychi's.
I wonder is this really a new trend at all, or is it like so many other disgusting elements of the human condition, something that has always been there but never before been lead by the hand quite so shamelessly into the sunshine, by so many willing 'friends'.
Are we all participating in the grooming of humanity to accept and participate in illicit acts of barbarism against ourselves?
