Vice is the killer of WPD

A big fuck you to vice.

I'm going to miss you WPD, it was real.

Vice is a douche.

Edit 1- I still want to believe everything will be ok, Mods haven't said when it'll be banned, just saying it looks bad

Good.

I for one, welcome our new Vice Trust-Fund Baby Clickbait Reporter Overlords.


NoMorals and the banned communities are different in tone than /r/WatchPeopleDie, a controversial subreddit with 319,000 subscribers that is exactly what it sounds like. But unlike NoMorals and other recently banned subreddits, WatchPeopleDie doesn’t revel in death and violence; people in that community have said it exists to help people realize “just how fragile human life truly is.”

Wasn't the video posted here before WPD got a hold of it?

So in a way, is /r/drama the true culprit?

Yeah, ban /r/drama dammit, start a petition

WE CAN’T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS

is /r/drama the true culprit?

That is FAKE NEWS! There was NO COLLUSION!

I rather see /r/drama gone over WPD.

The sub isn’t dead

God is, tho

Yeah, but it's because the admins still haven't come forward with the final decision to ban it. Although considering what u/greedeater said about his dialogue with Reddit's cucklord overlords, I'd say the odds of that sub getting nuked are still too large to ignore.

It's still there. Some people are posting goodbye videos - oldies but goodies I guess:

Since we're having a shutting-down party: the 2002 Sknyliv airshow disaster, 77 killed

This one always got me. Brazilian woman vomits as she's beheaded (with sound)

Chinese woman burns to death, trapped behind metal bars. This one has always stuck with me. Farewell to an educational sub and diverse community.

bye then...

Some people are posting “goodbye” videos

This is what caused the problem in the first place

Well, there were all those faggots going 'WPD does it too REEEEEE' over here when that article got posted here. I wouldn't be surprised if the soyboy find out about WPD from here, that faggot didn't seem like someone who has been on reddit for a long time(Or at least not on the more edgy subs).

Still, they'd have been canned eventually. Reddit is determined to be a cheap facebook knockoff, and facebook would never allow something like WPD on it.

I watched my first beheading video on Facebook. It was a different world then.

Pretty sure these people can just go to liveleak for their fix now.

Good riddance. I hope that shit gets banned and stays banned. Go to liveleak like all the other people who don't feel entitled to their curated snuff film sub.

Sometimes I just wanna watch some people die on mobile ya know? Like when Im bored at work or something.

why though

/r/morbidreality is way worse

Idk ban that sub too. I don't go on the morbid parts of Reddit, so I'm sure you can always find a worse sub to minimize how fucked up WPD is.

nice. just blindly blanket ban everything, good idea

Lol banning subs that are primarily based on gore/watching people die is not the same as blindly blanket banning everything. I said ban morbidreality because I was not going to engage in petty whataboutism, not because I have a strong opinion on whether is should stay or go. If you say it's worse than WPD, I'll take your word for it. But WPD is straight up gore porn - don't pretend like watching someone get executed with a chainsaw somehow makes you "realize the fragility of life" or prevents suicides.

most of what you've said isn't a response to me, what are you talking about? that isn't my position, morbid reality is not worse than wpd. there's nothing wrong with morbidreality. it's not a sub based on gore at all, or even all about death. that's not what the word morbid means. so yeah, you are blindly blanket banning by lumping it in.

My bad I thought you were the same person who said morbidreality was worse than WPD higher up in this comment chain. I don't know enough about morbidreality to form a position on it, and it's not my cup of tea so I'm not going to browse the sub to find out. The person above brought up a sub that was not part of the conversation, so I gave them a flippant reply.

lol how is it worse? have you ever been there? one shines light on the darker parts of the human condition the other is just gore porn. look at the front page now, how many graphic posts are there? now compare that to how many informative posts regarding the scientific and historical context of darker events

shines light on the darker parts of the human condition

There you go. Don't need gore to scare away the advertisers.

thats a bit of a grasp/sorta stupid. but anyways advertisers having their ads potentially served to morbidreality is not going to deter them. that isn't the kind of thing that creates brand association risk.

sorta stupid

no u

said first

Thats a good idea you got there. Make a big stink about all the subs with similar content. Make a detailed list and send it to vice to show them how unfair theyre being because its not just /wpd. Spam the list all over reddit so everyone knows about this terrible injustice youre being forced to endure. Once the rest of reddit sees the content you're fighting for and the double standard youre fighting against theyll force spez to unban the sub. This is the kind of brave stand against censorship that could trigger a reddit-wide slow clap. Imagine that!

pretty good idea indeed

Its probably a good idea to make sure vice understands that none of wpd's subscribers masturbate to the videos. Theyll probably try to brush off any attempts to explain this "fact" so only the most verbose and determined wpd subscribers should be recruited to contact vice everyday to hammer this point home. Write letters, compose songs, whatever it takes to convince people that the sub is not all about jacking off to horrifying murder videos.

Its probably also a good idea to make sure vice understands that none of wpd's subscribers masturbate to the videos.

Of course not.... *Zips Back Up*

Morbid curiosity is a part of human nature. Why do you think so many romans went to the Colosseum to watch people fight to the death? It's the same reason why people love watching people kill each other in movies and video games. You may not realize it but we as humans are fucked in the head man

Sissy boi

Remember that stupid documentary they did about kids fucking donkeys or some shit. VICE ADVOCATES BEASTIALITY!

That was just the weather report for Pakistan 🙁

I wonder what it's like visiting that doctor, "bruh I'm writing you a script for some donkey pussy, shit'll make your dick grow like crazy"

until the donkey kicks you in the balls

obese women taking ginormous shits are real too; not everything 'real' is worth defending

That is an oddly specific thing to reference.. Maybe you subconsciously chose that very specific act for a reason... Hey I won't judge you I just want you to be happy.

Still alive...
