I think the adjective "mindless" is appropriate, but not in the way you think.

It is worse *not* live-streaming it?
The purpose of the live-stream *is* the ugly thing. It is not a retribution from the state meted out on the perpetrator. It is propaganda. It is similar to ISIS beheadings.
I hope you did not mean that the propaganda is a good thing in this case.

Are you for leaving ISIS beheadings up on social platforms as well? Those are "legal" in the jurisdiction where they happened (self-proclaimed caliphate and all that).
What about CSAM from countries with lax laws about those things?
Your comment about LBTQ+ is interesting. That is most likely blocked in backwards countries where things like that are illegal, or various platforms would face consequences in those jurisdictions.
