Chat I think we're in the bad place

YouTube removed a channel that was dedicated to posting AI-generated videos of women being shot in the head following 404 Media’s request for comment. The videos were clearly generated with Google’s new AI video generator tool, Veo, according to a watermark included in the bottom right corner of the videos.

The channel, named Woman Shot A.I, started on June 20, 2025. It posted 27 videos, had over 1,000 subscribers, and had more than 175,000 views, according to the channel’s publicly available data.

violence against women

All the videos posted by the channel follow the exact same formula. The nearly photo-realistic videos show a woman begging for her life while a man with a gun looms over her. Then he shoots her. Some videos have different themes, like compilations of video game characters like Lara Croft being shot, “Japanese Schoolgirls Shot in Breast,” “Sexy HouseWife Shot in Breast,” “Female Reporter Tragic End,” and Russian soldiers shooting women with Ukrainian flags on their chest.

“The AI I use is paid, per account I have to spend around 300 dollars per month, even though 1 account can only generate 8-second videos 3 times,” the channel’s owner wrote in a public post on YouTube. “So, imagine how many times I generate a video once I upload, I just want to say that every time I upload a compilation consisting of several 8-second clips, it’s not enough for just 1 account.”

Woman Shot A.I’s owner claimed they have 10 accounts. “I have to spend quite a lot of money just to have fun,” they said.

If you're too scared to post a reasoned position you're just being a dickhead.

What's there to reason about a dude making snuff films of women and saying "oh it's okay they just have a fetish about women dying". The fuck is wrong with you?

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 20 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

There's a lot to reason.

Snuff itself isn't really real. It's a made up thing that got a lot of media attention in the 70s capturing a lot of people's imaginations. Conservatives and anti-porn activists latched onto it and weaponised the idea that people were murdering others to produce snuff films to try and push anti-pornography legislation. Actual FBI investigations occurred and fuck all was ever found to substantiate the existence of the hysteria they produced at all. The fetishists of this topic came after it captured imaginations, these fetishists were mostly kink explorers who like pushing boundaries to find what the limits of what can be sexual are, these tends to be the groups that "develop" new kinks into something real by finding what works and what doesn't and pulling on the thread of what works to see where it goes.

  1. The exact reaction you're having to it right now is a previously weaponised conservative reaction.

  2. We are in the middle of a new anti-pornography movement being pushed by religious groups. These groups are having considerable success in lobbying payment providers to go after various platforms and pressure them into removing various things. They will expand this further.

  3. It is extremely easy to stage this controversy and then use media reporting on them to generate hysteria and call for more legislation. How do we know that's not what is happening? How do you know you are not being manipulated by a fascist right now into an emotional reaction and future support for their attacks on pornographic and kink content?

  4. Does it actually cause any real life harm?

  5. If you're going to demand it all be removed everywhere. You need to provide some sort of framework for doing that. How are you differentiating between kink and not kink? And how are you differentiating between acceptable murder in art and people clipping that art for kink?

  6. What is your reaction going to be when it's AI generated stranglings of women next? Go after everyone with an asphyxiation kink? That would be literally me. A woman with that kink. While I haven't directly explored the idea of being literally killed, there are definitely women who have and would say they're into it. Kink is not real violence... Well sometimes it is... but it's consensual real violence in those cases.

  7. The vore people are into the idea of others or themselves literally dying as they're eaten by weird monsters and digested. Does that register similarly in your shocking content that should be banned emotional reaction despite being obviously literally impossible fiction?

There is SO MUCH to talk about in this topic we could go on for hours. That's why I goaded you. Because a 1 sentence "shut the fuck up" isn't enough at all.

I suspect most of your reaction boils down to "man on woman violence is bad and we should suppress it", multiplied by the fact that this particular man on woman violence is shocking and presented in the most base and shocking way possible by the obvious fascist making it. But you're forgetting that there are fuckloads of women who are into man on woman violence to various degrees. What quantity of man on woman violence is ok and is not ok? Half of women have an SA fetish.

All well said, I would add that after that period in the '70s you were speaking of those same forces in the 80s and 90s decided to grab kids and brow beat them that they were sexually abused until they agreed and then concocted elaborate devil worshiping child abuse ceremonies to convict their parents of.

Referred to as the satanic Panic it was born in LA and Bakersfield California and exported across the country. All bad faith prosecutions, not a single cop or prosecutor ever faced any consequence for it even as they hid evidence to prevent the cases from unraveling decades later.
