Warning: disturbing content.

I'm not sure it belongs on HN, but I'm also reluctant to flag it, because it is well-written and interesting.

Thankfully, the number of online accounts involved appears to be minuscule (assuming the author is credible).

Yeah, that article should come with a warning label.

I think "I don't want to know" is a valid reaction to it, for the same reason someone might not want to learn about eg the fine details of ISIS beheadings.

I think the general dynamic is interesting, and we should learn about it, because it's going to be more and more common as time goes on. The internet pushes content towards the extreme.

But the specifics are stomach-wrenching.
