Maybe there is another reason this video is being banned.

I saw this video, I made myself watch it. (judge me)

Then I went back to my tv show. There were scenes of soldiers attacking the "heroes" in a bowling alley, and it made me horrified and sick. And I realized Hollywood is glorifying this shit. Hollywood is promoting shootings like this.

An hour before, and this tv show was entertainment to me. Now I feel like a twisted sicko for enjoying violent entertainment just like what is in the New Zealand video.

This video changed me, it made me see violence in a new light. It's sick to be entertained by re-enactments of this in the same way as the original.

Even more disturbing is playing counter strike or another FPS after watching it. You're brain can look at the NZ shooting and a first person Counter Strike stream and it wouldn't interpret them any differently.
