I'm sure these freak events really happened, but it seems irresponsib(ru)le to make people feel like this might happen to them, just for views

Update: I have hidden channel names in the interest of letting people know this is criticizing the tr(ul)end, and not any specific YouTubers

Edit: If you're here to discuss any particular YouTuber, please scroll down. I've already had this discussion, and I have nothing more to consider or add regarding this derailment. I've fixed the problem by posting an edited image. Thank you so much!

It’s the viewing experience that’s the point. Would you want every murder mystery movie to be named “the killer was X”?

Murder mysteries are typically works of fiction that aren't exploiting other people's grave misfortune for the sake of profit

So the only acceptable way to communicate medical cases is in 2 sentences covering the context and final conclusion? And the only reason for that is that they happened to a real person?

Please scroll down. This is not a new discussion, and I've already addressed all of this.
