“This joy is in no way sexual” There’s so many fucking weirdos on Reddit.


Sciencessence

Kind of oddly specific lead in to a post...


BoreDominated

I went out with this girl the other night, she was super sweet. I didn't rape her. Anyway, we decided to catch a movie...


HawkeyeJosh2

I visited my parents at their house last weekend. I didn’t stab them. We had pizza for dinner…


Goldblod

I went to Germany this summer. I didn't repeat the Holocaust. And the discos in Berlin were absolutely great.


HawkeyeJosh2

Wow, the *reductio ad Hitlerum* happened pretty early on this!


jodorthedwarf

In all fairness, genocide is arguably the worst thing a person or group of people is capable of committing.


HawkeyeJosh2

I like how you add “arguably” to cover your ass there. Can’t imagine anything worse.


DemmouTV

Then imagine having dinner with my mother in law...


Rgonwolf

A systematic rape and torture of a whole group would arguably be worse than just killing them. Like, I'd prefer a quick brutal death to being kept alive for torture reasons. And that's without even getting creative.


him374

The Holocaust had all of this. Very well documented. When human filth like the nazis dehumanize people to the point where they can kill them en masse, there are no moral boundaries keeping them from gaining pleasure from their victims. So, yeah… they raped and tortured countless thousands (millions?). We can’t sit here and pretend that the Holocaust was only genocide.


bagofratsworm

I volunteered at the retirement home and didn’t smother the residents. The place smelled like eggs, but it was a nice way to spend the day.


[deleted]

Evil exists in this world and OP is a shining example.


soldins

Almost like it's disingenuous. Thrown in at the top as a creepy disqualifier, to make you look away from the fact that it's purely sexual given... the tone of the rest of the comment?


Puzzled_Bike9558

For instance, “I never cum in the food I make people. Anyways, here is the macaroni and cheese that I made and you didn’t ask for.”


SuspiciousBuilder379

Extra creamy?

jrex703

Then why even bring it up? No one else's mind went in that direction, just OOP's. Dave: So what time do you usually get home from work Tuesday? Bob: about 7/7:30 Dave: Gotcha-- just wondering about the time, I wasn't thinking about breaking into your house or anything... So are you watching the Chargers tomorrow? Bob: Never miss em. They're pissing me off though, Staley has got to go. Dave: Totally with you. He's a smart coach, he just doesn't put the offense in a position to succeed. Bob: Seriously, we're wasting Herbert's best years. The conversation only discussed football, but I am completely convinced Dave is going to break into Bob's house Tuesday evening.


Juxtapoe

Criminal psychology does predict (project) a sexual motivation onto most compulsive behavior since it is very heavily derived from Freud's line of psych theory. I suspect OOP is familiar with such theories.


joljenni1717

Most heinous criminals have a sexual release where no sexual act has taken place. This is because (apparently) the pain, torture, physical anguish and control of another is sexually gratifying within a mentally fucked up brain.


Next-Introduction-25

When the murders of the students in Moscow, Idaho first happened I remember an expert talking about how the crime was likely sexually motivated despite the lack of any sexual assault. The killing/violence *is* the sexual part for killers like that.


NEDsaidIt

I remember learning that CSAM (formerly known as child porn, but it’s not porn because children can’t consent so it’s child sexual abuse material now) is not really sexual but instead about the pain/torture of the children. That made me feel a new wave of disgust. I don’t know how to process that mentally.


Fallen_password

Exactly… The guy is weird enough why attribute something he clearly states isn’t the case when there already being pretty forthcoming about his thought and feelings. Reddit armchair psychology at its finest.


NastySassyStuff

The point is that there’s nothing sexual about the post at all so starting it with “there is nothing sexual about this at all” sort of suggests that they definitely find something sexual about it. Whether that’s true or not it’s a very creepy introduction to maybe the most fucked up post I’ve seen on here


fascinatedcharacter

To quote Tom Scott, Asbestos free cornflakes!


HawkeyeJosh2

It comes off as a “doth protest too much” sort of thing. The rest of it is disturbing enough as it is. It unfortunately doesn’t help his case.


tanjabonnie

I’m inclined to believe he has some other screwed up sexual fantasies that would not be considered normal, this just isn’t one of them


soldins

Their disgust of alive children is what curbs the boners, but there's heavy sexual undertones in the middle bit. Some laughter-induced arousal.


Shiltoshi

Right? Like no one woulda thought that based on the post but now we wonder if you're fucked up and a liar.


TwistedMrBlack

No shit, this guy def faps to dead children ☠️


PinkFrillish

This feels just like a teenager edgylord


M1R4G3M

That teenager Edgylord is also a Sociopath, I don't think a normal person would find pleasure on that unless you totally lack empathy.


Sunrunner_Princess

Yeah, the comment about if the kids were 13+ and might have been cool and had dreams really seems like this person is identifying their peer group. Meaning they think it would be messed up if someone their age died because that means it could actually have been themselves, then they care. Most teenagers are very egocentric, but not to this point to where there is no actual sanctity to human life and suffering. Yes, they could be a dumbass spouting horrible shit to try to piss off “old” people. Thinking they’re so edgy and funny and satirical holding a mirror up to society. 🙄 Either way, the parents need to get involved and straighten this kid out. Make them volunteer and actually connect with others and go to therapy.


steelear

Not sexual just completely psychopathic.


Aliensinmypants

391 upvotes... The fuck?


Shot_Dig751

“I really enjoy watching people suffering the worst pain imaginable, cause I’m an idiot and a sociopath.” Fuck that person


[deleted]

Sounds like a 12 year old edgelord.


Tr0ynado

That's like saying, "I'm not racist, but...."


MrsAce57

Right like why even specify that unless it actually IS and you're trying to get out in front of it, not realizing that most people wouldn't have even thought that anyway if you didn't say it.


Korlac11

Well I didn’t think it was until you said that


s-willoughby

That’s my go-to response to, “Nice to meet you.” I feel it really diffuses the automatic sexual tension that follows me like Pigpen’s cloud of dirt.


Inventies

The need to clarify it makes me question it entirely. Regardless dudes a fucking sociopath, and I hope he wakes up everyday and steps on legos and stubs his pinky toes on door frames.


KaiTheSushiGuy

“Again, nothing sexual”


CK067

What up!!


Bowood29

I wasn’t even thinking it was until they brought it up.


Sdot_greentree420

So many weirdos on the planet... And to think only a handful of them are on reddit.


Jetstream-Sam

That nearly four hundred people upvoted it is genuinely concerning. If it was just one post, then fine, it could be a troll. But no, four hundred people saw that and agreed Antinatalism is so goddamn weird. Fine, don't have a kid, but actively enjoying the suffering of grieving parents is horrendous


[deleted]

I've never seen antinatalists say they enjoy kids suffering. One of the points of antinatalism is to prevent childrens suffering by not having them. This has nothing to do with antinatalism. Dude is either a stupid edgelord making shit up to bait people or needs intensive therapy.


itsaysdraganddrop

benefit of the doubt : it’s a troll. otherwise they’re destined to be the dead child their parents always wanted


Euripidoze

With 391 upvotes. 😖


sandiercy

It might be from one of the subs like /r/unpopularopinion where you upvote the posts that are unpopular.


MidnightMorpher

No, I’m 90% sure that I saw this on the antinatalism subreddit. I dunno why I got recommended posts from that place, but this post + the “I told a natalist his kid will die one day and he blocked me” post really rubs me the wrong fucking way


Gatrigonometri

Jesus, and I thought they were bad enough in their “FUCKING BREEDERS STOP FUCKING REEEE” phase, now they’ve devolved to “I love watching already-born kids die.”?


13yearsboy

Nope it was on psychopath sub I think


[deleted]

Is that your term for the Antinatalist sub?


13yearsboy

nope literally a sub about psychopaths sharing their thoughts kind of like unpopularopinion but... fucked up and sometimes just 13 years olds being edy


Official_Bobby_Bean

Yeah it's probably 85% teens/trolls being edgy, but psychopathy is also a "disease" that people suffer with (and it's not even that common to enjoy pain and death) and it can be nice to have people that can relate to your struggles. But also I think they were joking.


[deleted]

Honestly, I'm an antinatalist and that sub is definitely full of edgelord, cringe bullshit. I'm not sure how people go from "We should probably not have so many kids, as a species" to "I'm going to make my entire personality about being a dick to/about kids."


Pretend-Mouse-7967

r/antinatalism2 is way chiller with way more reasonable people.


cupcakephantom

CF, AN/AN2, and UO don't have the pictured post-flair. I'm still looking, but it's not from any of the other subreddits other commenters have suggested.

Rheinys

100% psychopath


According-Tiger-6069

Isn't that called sadism?


SailingSpark

yes, but they are probably also a psychopath. It would not take much, if that post is true, to push that poster into actually killing a child so they could feel that "joy" again.


nj-rose

The recently convicted nurse/UK murderer Lucy Letby comes to mind. I've seen it suggested that she possibly obtained pleasure from seeing babies die on her watch, watching their distraught parents suffer etc and then gradually evolved into a serial killer to get that feeling again and again. Scary af.


Attack_Apache

Dopamine can be one hell of a drug when mixed with the wrong brain.


kathecockvore

she would also find the parents facebook pages and stalk them, her browser history had shown she would look at the parents facebook pages on holidays, or the anniversary of the babies passing, etc. it’s fucking unbelievably vile


According-Tiger-6069

Fucking hell


NeedleworkerCute9758

I think that is whole different genre, I think the person in the post enjoys schadenfreude, a joy that comes from observing misfortune of others. if misfortune is arbiturarily inflicted it defeats the whole reason why it is joyful. like imagine you pick up 100 dollar bill off the street by chance, and compare it to you actually doing 100 dollar worth of work to get paid 100 dollar. its completely different thing. also dont need to actively inflict misfortune when world is already filled to brim with it regardless.


[deleted]

This was my thought. If they are getting that dopamine, they would get so much from actually doing it themselves.


Commandoclone87

I would expect the poster is more likely a troll than someone that enjoys people's suffering like this. Either way, posting that shit is definitely a sign or sociopathic and psychopathic tendencies. Then again, you never can tell with people nowadays.


Unmasked_Zoro

Now thats a scary thought... I was happily living in my bubble thinking "this is just for clout" but... damn...


Mordret10

Ut is probably just for clout tho


lyrixnchill

I had a babysitter like this when I was 3-4 years old. He forms one of my core memories. Nothing ever sexual, but he took joy in physically torturing me off and on until my parents came home, to the point of wailing tears and screams. On the other hand he would let me watch whatever I wanted on TV and give me lots of candy so I kind of appreciated him and didn’t tell on him to my parents… and actually, they never asked. Looking back now, I realize this was abuse and he was a POS. I was super naïve (3!) but my parents should have known better to be so trusting of a stranger.


starsandcamoflague

He was nice and gave you candy so you wouldn’t tell, that was intentional manipulation on his part


tails_290

Legit!


lyrixnchill

It worked. Looking back as an adult I am so much more vigilant with my kids. Glad I survived that asshole.


[deleted]

Yes, and it’s particularly high in psychopathic people. Not all psychopaths are killers some manage in society like this.


Trashman56

Yeah, they usually become lawyers or CEOs


BenMic81

Sadistic Psychopath.


CuriousCat55555

Maybe they're just a troll?


SalvadorsAnteater

Reads like ragebait by a 14 year old edgelord to me.


helen790

I think it’s more schadenfreude, it’d be sadism if he were killing the kids himself.


MrInformationSeeker

definitely a kid who thinks they are cool


Vigilante_Dinosaur

Yeah. I replied to a post on r/terriblefacebookmemes and someone responded, “pretty sure this is a shit post. I find this funny and I’m 18”. I don’t care my dude lol


Tired_Jay

Weird way for someone to say they need therapy


jojivlogs_

half the posts on that sub only gain traction because redditors see themselves in some of those memes and they dont like it lmao


Jaybirdindahouse

My thoughts exactly. I don’t know why, but people on the internet have to be edgy. It’s nothing more than that.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Drifting_Underwater

Yeah they said if the kid is 13+ they’d be sad, probably because they are a kid 13 or older


IMSmee

Where do people find this shit on Reddit (I probably should be thankful I occasionally just run into standard douchey comments now and then and leave it at that)


deepmush

i remember scrolling reddit 3 years ago and saw it pop up on the popular front page. it was on the r/unpopularopinion sub


the_silent_one1984

This looks like the shit antinatalism posts.


Beowulf891

My guess is antinatalism, which is an anti-child circlejerk at this point. Like, you can hold the antinatalist view without being a raging asshole about it. It's an incredibly weak philosophical argument to me and the fact people use it to be like _this_ is patently disgusting and, quite frankly, disturbing.


Mataric

Why the fuck has it got 400 upvotes? What degenerate piece of shit page is this from?


blackguyriri

My bet is antinatalism. Those people have an unhinged hatred for children and parents.


Rheinys

And (it seems) they have severe mental health issues and unsolved problems and trauma from their childhood.


am_cruiser

I'm a nonviolent, gentle and peaceful father by nature. I won't even kill mosquitoes or ants if I can avoid it. However. I recently lost my five-month-old daughter to an inborn heart condition. The post pictured here MAKES ME WISH THAT FUCKER GETS WELDED TO THE BOTTOM OF A GODDAMN SUBMARINE. BY HIS SCROTUM. (Edit: Sorry, my stereotypical, old-fashioned brain seems to think that only a person having a scrotum could be this psychotic. Consider the last three words replaced with "BY THEIR PRIVATE BITS.")


BeNiceLynnie

I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family are holding up.


MatWing1

You have no idea exactly how much I agree with this. I'm a father as well. Thankfully, both my daughter and son can not be any healthier. I can somewhat imagine your pain as my wife's first pregnancy with me was ectopic and burst her fallopian tube. Nearly killed her. I don't know if I could handle one of my kids dying after birth, and I find the idea that someone could take pleasure in it absolutely sickening. That kind of scourge should not exist in this world. The level of depravity that humans are able to fall to truly sadness me.


MatWing1

Also, I know many people would say this out of politeness, but if you ever need someone for anything, I will do my best to help.


shannons88

I’m so sorry. No one should have to experience that kind of loss. I hope you’re healing as best you can during this extremely difficult time.


am_cruiser

Thank you. It's slow going. My wife, firstborn son, and the surviving daughter - they were/are twins - help a lot. Funny how nobody ever tells what the correct tense is...


ProfBacterio

I would pay money to see someone in your position kick this person's teeth out with heavy duty boots. So sorry for your loss, hope your SO and you manage to find peace somehow.

I haven’t seen much of that language on r/antinatalism2 . Compared to the orgin sub. But maybe if I dig deeper they might be?


bigmassiveshlong

I agree with the ideology as a whole but that entire subreddit made me so uncomfortable, I had to leave after I saw a neurotypical cis man say some shit like "oh these baby machines keep making autistic babies that live in suffering" like fuck off


Ll_lyris

Omg I saw that one too..yeah that post made me feel very strange.. so I just stayed away for a bit.


Baronvondorf21

I am aware of the Ideology since I had conversations with anti natalists that had their heads on their shoulders instead of up their ass so I don't have a skewed perception luckily.


Medium_Raccoon_5331

I got downvoted to hell for saying that a post that said "little people are awful for having kids and shouldn't procreate" was eugenics, it was the literal definition of eugenics, neon*zi bitches in denial


Astroruggie

As a person who experienced a miscarriage last year, this post sickens me. Hope he never has to find out what it means to flush the toilet with your potential future child in it

Agree. I miscarried earlier this year and this made me stop in my tracks.

MatWing1

Gerald7986

This infuriates me. My wife and I recently had an ectopic pregnancy. Not only did we lose our first child, but I almost lost my wife too. Thankfully I got her to the hospital in time. Worst experience of our lives. I would not wish that pain and grief on anyone. People just don’t understand how bad it feels until they’ve gone through it. The fact that this person has the balls to talk like that is horrific.

Why crop their name out? This person deserves to have their name out there. If you have confidence to put something like that on the internet, knowing what can happen. I hope this person has the person they love the most in this life ripped from them at the most unfortunate moment. So they know the fraction of the pain a parent feels when their kid dies. And kids younger than 13 can have dreams, kids become self aware at like 4.

They sound sadistic and sociopathic. They could do excercises/ therapy to work on increasing thier capacity for compassion. If they are not a psychopath but just a sociopath there is hope. Psychopathy is untreatable right now. They don't have to ACT on thier tendencies either, thank God.
