Sensitive: news story today

[DueyCheatemAndHow]

There's been a news story today across various different sites. I won't link it but it involves animals. I read it and it was honestly so upsetting, I'm annoyed with myself for reading it but it was also so much worse than I could have imagined.

Trying to take my mind off it but it was awful.

I didn’t read it all so I don’t know the full details.
I saw a post on here earlier and, despite the warning, I opened it but stopped reading pretty quickly. Then when I was on the BBC site I clicked a link that was mostly about the woman that pushed for the story to come out but again, I had to stop reading. What I read was setting enough.

The cruelty of some people never fails to shock me 😞

I don't understand why I didn't stop. I feel like I must be really naive because I just can't believe this type of thing happens.

Was it the same story that was on radio 4 this evening? I wish I hadn't listened on when I realised it was so awful. I feel sick still, a few hours later.

I read it too and just can't get it off my mind. Absolutely evil, I just despair. Makes me feel like there's no hope, how can there be people like that?

Yes, I feel exactly the same, whether it was the same story or not. I suppose I wanted to hear that it ended better or something, but I just became more and more unsettled. Feeling horrible about the world now.

Just saw this on the news. I feel absolutely sick. Wish I'd never seen it. Depraved

I can't stop thinking about it either. I hope they publish a full list of everyone who has paid for the content so they are exposed as being abusers. I've felt sick thinking about it all day.

It made me so, so sad. I couldn’t watch the programme. I hope the perpetrators are punished.

I read it too and I can't stop thinking about all the horrible things.

It's just so so sick. I can't believe it happens.

Who the hell is that depraved / sadistic?

I wish I hadn't read it. Worried I'll have nightmares.

It was the comments that got me. And the nature of the animals. Genuinely wanted to cry at work. I need, need to stop exposing myself to stuff.

It is the same story that R4 ran a programme on, having just looked on the BBC news site. I can't read the article. It's the worst of humanity, which I can't bear to come to terms with existing. The saddest thing.

I would want the perps to suffer in the same way as the animals. I have no words about this story. Evil lurks where there is no light - so shine a light on these sick fucks. Name, shame and expose.

I totally agree! I hope Anonymous ruin their lives!

Knew what this was immediately. Please excuse my language.

I hope that the evil fuckers are named and shamed - particularly the woman on BBC news at 10 in the UK. I wonder how long before sickos like that become bored with monkeys and start searching for something else?

My dark self wishes that instead of a prison sentence and hopefully eternal shame, the same “punishment” could be inflicted on them and streamed live but my better self knows that’s just wrong.

Instead, I just wish them an ostracised, long, lonely and very, very miserable life with terrible nightmares.

I haven't read this, but thanks for the warning, I will try to avoid. Hope you all feel a bit less upset soon

Wish I hadn't read it too, those poor wee animals

I'll never understand why some humans find carrying out or watching depraved shit like this pleasurable. It's pure evil.

I read the article earlier. Been feeling depressed every since. I just hate people sometimes.

It is stomach-turning, sickening, disgusting stuff.

I remind myself that the vast, vast, vast majority of us are normal people who find it utterly repulsive. It's the only way I can cope with such sad news and shocking behaviour.

If this is the monkey story, I've felt ill all day. Evil cunts.

It's awful. How fucked up are some of the people this world is creating? I can't fathom that kind of depraved enjoyment of inflicting pain on innocent creatures. Made me feel ill reading it.

I avoided reading it because l know it would deeply upset me.
I hope karma catches up with disgusting people involved.

It was so awful to read. You know there are some sickos out there but to read their comments and suggestions of what they wanted to watch was grotesque. It’s unfathomable there is a single person in this world who wants to do those things, let alone thousands that were members of the groups.

Even worse there will be a very strong link to child abuse, perverts always escalate.

With the technology available surely it couldn’t be hard to shut these groups down. If it had been stopped straight away so much suffering could have been prevented. The internet has linked and encouraged so many depraved people who encourage each other in their behaviour. More needs to be done by governments and companies to ensure they can’t connect or profit from it.

Truly horrific people involved in that level of evil. Avoid reading if you can. The people involved need eradicating and swift action is needed to identify online abuse. Those poor innocent animals xx

I saw the headline and had to move past the video op. Made me feel sick.

For those who aren't aware, there's another thread on this in which a poster decided to quote in great detail some of what was done.
So do avoid that too If you're trying not to know the detail. Wish I had. I heard a brief piece on the radio, but haven't read the article. As others have said, even the little detail I now know was far worse than I expected. It's not anything a normal mind can comprehend.
