A year-long investigation uncovers a sadistic abuse network stretching from Indonesia to the US.
OMG this is horrific!
I remember a little while back, all these cute monkey videos turning up on Youtube. And there were a few different channels. I watched a couple but became quickly curious about the origin - why a monkey was seemingly living with humans etc. I thought maybe it was some sort of rescue shelter, but the channel names didn’t sound very official.
Someone in the comments mentioned that people should not watch/subscribe, but rather report the channels, because once the monkey’s get to six months or something, they were killed. I reported the channels, but they also quickly dropped off my feed. I dunno if it was because of the algorithm, or because Youtube banned the channels.
I have also come across those baby monkey videos on YouTube. I found them a bit unsettling but couldn’t pinpoint why. The article doesn’t make any connection with those videos to the torture though.
I remember the “monkey torture rabbit hole” very well, there was a great worry that some people who wanted to go past even animals would be in those communities and there were several convincing links e-investigators made to all sorts of horrible,unmentionable things. I’m really glad governments have been looking into it.
