I "Like" Death.


I find it awkward when I see the number of "likes" on a YouTube video about death, disasters, destruction, etc. I ask myself what is it they "like" about a video... maybe it's the quality of the report, or it's something more morbid. Do you "like" disasters, the destruction, or people dying? I mean, how do you "like" a video entitled, "Storms Kill 10, Cause Wide Power Outages"?

This is why I miss the 5-star rating system YouTube used to have. The whole like/dislike system is just too simplistic & sends mixed messages depending on the video. You're asking me to like/dislike a news video about people dying? Of course I'm going to dislike it, because dying sucks.
