Also bestgore, ebaums world, and a few others just off the tip of my tongue (if they’re even still around). Warning to OP: I went through a phase in my late teens / early twenties when I was obsessed with seeing the realities of the darkest aspects of the world. It did me a great disservice and worsened my anxiety and depression. I strongly advise against seeing the realities of war and death.
Second this. Listen to this person. There really isn’t anything to be gained by viewing this content that your imagination can’t fill in. The only thing I can think of is if you’re going into the military or medicine where understanding and desensitizarion may serve a purpose… Maybe, but even then. It will change you.
Third this. I’m actually impressed by how the internet has cleansed itself of easy access to gore and real violence. I get the curiosity, but deep down, your imagination of how brutal it can be doesn’t need validation of how brutal it is. Not seeing it but knowing it occurs doesn’t make one naive. Seeing it doesn’t enlighten you. We’re as awful as you can imagine.
Im pretty limited in my experience but I don’t look to see this stuff. The mild things I have seen are more than aweful enough. What really sucks is I thought we were getting better as a species and I kinda feel we got worse.
4chan, reddit,twitter, millitary dot com, dattalion and NARA are a few.
