    I remember there was a water treatment plant or something similar that got hacked. The hackers started messing with the levels of the chemical mixtures to poison an entire city. The only reason it didn’t end in catastrophe is because there was somebody watching that specific screen at the exact moment it happened. Seeing this made that scenario more terrifying.

      I actually cannot comprehend how people can think like this

      Saw a 4chan post claiming to be about making crystals that was actually designed to mislead people into making chlorine gas and poisoning themselves - how the fuck can anyone be that broken that they’d find that funny

        Oh sweet summer child, you’d be surprised, but there’s shitton of people like that, they just so good at wearing masks irl that you’ll believe them instead of victim, if they get convinced that they gonna be unpunished or/and benefits (shit and giggles) outweigh consequences, they’ll do shit, i mean, in internet people let true unhinged self to act, if they believe they can do it irl too, then they’ll do it, i mean I’m a living magnet for cluster b personalities so I’ve experienced those unhinged almost my whole life, no matter how strange it may sound, I’ve survived few killing attempts and regular abuse/torture, and these type of people acting all innocent after all they done, these type of people feel opportunity to do shit a mile away, recently I’ve come to conclusion, these type of people will do shit if they think/feel they can

        Humans are really really good at separating themselves from their own violent actions. For example, many humans drive a car and eat meat.

          How’s driving a car violent? Not exactly good for the environment but I wouldn’t classify that as violent or seriously harmful to any individual (assuming you don’t run anyone over)

            Risking someone’s life in the event you don’t have perfect attention aside, no matter what happens in the car you will PM10 dust pollution that gives little kids asthma, and if it’s an ICE car you will release CO2 that brings all life on earth closer to extinction. It’s one of the single most massively violent acts an average human is capable of.
