We're not marking death videos with NSFW these days?

    Is it NSFW? There's no gore, no nudity, and no swearing. The title and community already state it's not exactly feel good but I don't see anything that you wouldn't see in any Marvel movie.

    Some servers (including the one I'm on just now) don't show anything tagged as NSFW, as an easy means of complying with stupid internet laws. Using the NSFW tag as a catch all term for anything you may not want to see then censors large amounts of content.

    Yes watching this video knowing that 9 people have died upon impact makes this a death video.

    What's so wrong with erring on the side of caution and putting NSFW or a CW up?

    The title and community already state it’s not exactly feel good but I don’t see anything that you wouldn’t see in any Marvel movie.

    Just because you are desensitized to watching death doesn't mean the rest of us are.

    CW fair enough, but NSFW blocks it from several servers erroneously.

    Maybe death videos shouldn't be pushed so easily into people's timelines. Let people choose to watch it if they want.

    Right back at you.

    This video was one of the top stories on the BBC's website today and I'm sure many other news websites around the world. It was "censored" by pausing for 1 second at the point of collision but otherwise it was the exact same video.

    If the BBC are putting it on their front page it's unlikely to be NSFW.

    Yeah defending the BBC is always the right move lol

    I still think death videos should be opt in and not pushed to everyone's front page without any warning or censoring.

    Question is, why are we marking videos NSFW when there's nothing to it. I've seen many.

    Not everyone enjoys watching others die.

    But you didn't actually see anyone die. You know it from news reports. Also I'm not referring to this video. I just think the NSFW label is overused and abused in terms of click-baiting.

    Fine, then throw a CW at least.

    You don't need to dig your heels in on insisting people should watch this death video.

    The title saying it's a video of a plane crashing isn't a warning enough?

    And the rules request a CW when applicable.

    And that's not what you asked for.

    I conceded CW is fair enough and you continued to argue.

    And I thanked you at the end of our back and forth, upvoted you, and now you're back here nagging at me? What the fuck?

    Ah that was another user who was much more polite than you were. Nevermind.

    My original point still stands - this should have a CW or NSFW because it is a death video.

    I wasn't arguing back about the CW when I maintained that, in my opinion, death videos shouldn't be pushed into people's timelines. You are arguing that people should be forced to watch this death video because the BBC shows a censored version of it.

    That you are digging in your heels and arguing that people should have death videos pushed into their social media feeds without a warning is at the very least impolite.

    Where did I say anybody should be forced to watch anything? I said NSFW blocks content from being visible to many servers, implying it should only be used when the content truly fits the definition of NSFW. This is a distressing video, but not NSFW.

    If you don't want to risk seeing videos of this nature I think it's probably best you block this community.

    Well the BBC showed an edited version, so it's totally okay to allow this on people's feeds without any warning at all /s

    Then don’t look for the ATC communication with the airplane. That’s NSFL.
