at some point of my life i asked myself: how could people in the old times gather to watch executions? bring their kids to watch? were they forced to?
today i can guess the answer: no, they (mostly) were not forced, people are just naturally like this. not everyone will enjoy it, for some it's an «acquired taste», others will hide their passion but enjoy it in secret.
and of course, there are those who are ready to give people this entertaintment, because «it's just <insert smth>» and «if i don't do it, others will and we'll still end up there, so why not?»
what an awful world, really.
