I asked my wife to double check, and she said her friends told her it wasn't a momo, but a video that someone edited or created to have bad things happen to the characters.
It is any worse than the things Tim Burton puts out?

I’m always amazed these sportscasters and announcers can call the game with McDavid’s **** in their mouths all the time.
I mean, the weird Kids Content mills that churn out bizarre and sometimes gruesome character videos are 100% real and intensely prolific. Monitor what your kids watch on YouTube y'all, there's some weird #### out there.
So information came out that back in 2017, 3 female jurists overturned a rape conviction against two men because they believed the argument that they couldn't possibly have raped her because they found her too ugly.

Well this is interesting. The adults on trial were found not guilty by a judge, because the victim wasn’t found to be credible. But the minor had admitted and plead guilty to sexual assault, where another judge was clear in his disgust.
basically, An Ontario firefighter alleges his human rights were violated when he was not provided sufficient vegan food while battling a massive blaze in B.C.
" "I am an ethical vegan in that I not only follow a vegan diet, but I extend the philosophy of non-consumption of animal products to all other areas of my life," he wrote.
"I do not think that humans have the moral right to oppress other beings, or to cause them pain and suffering."
I'm sorry but given the situation, maybe fighting forest fires isn't the best job for this guy. hope he didn't swat a mosquito or step on a bug when he was out there.
it's tough enough to take care of so many firefighters in that sort of situation without having to waste valuable time and resources for him
Base camp was difficult for all involved, as was trying to feed 1,000 firefighters with the closest towns with open stores hours away, the ministry says.

The games children play in schoolyards are famously horrible, if you stop and think about them.
Tag, for example, singles out one poor participant, often the slowest child, as the dehumanized “It,” who runs vainly in pursuit of the quicker ones. Capture the Flag is nakedly militaristic. British Bulldog has obvious jingoistic colonial themes. Red Ass, known in America as Butts Up, involves deliberate imposition of corporal punishment on losers.
But none rouse the passions of reform-minded educational progressives quite like dodgeball, the team sport in which players throw balls at each other, trying to hit their competitors and banish them to the sidelines of shame.
When the Canadian Society for the Study of Education meets in Vancouver at the Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences, a trio of education theorists will argue that dodgeball is not only problematic, in the modern sense of displaying hierarchies of privilege based on athletic skill, but that it is outright “miseducative.”
Dodgeball is not just unhelpful to the development of kind and gentle children who will become decent citizens of a liberal democracy. It is actively harmful to this process, they say.
Dodgeball is a tool of “oppression.”

I was a pretty tall, athletic kid, though extremely nerdy, and I was well aware that dodgeball was just a school-sanctioned opportunity to whale on the small kids.
The hilarious themes the article assigns to the games are reaching so hard they're going to dislocate their shoulder however.
For example, when Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughan teamed up for the 2004 slapstick comedy Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, they included a scene with Hank Azaria as Patches O’Houlihan, billed as the Wayne Gretzky or Michael Jordan of dodgeball.
“Remember,” O’Houlihan tells a boy keen to learn the game. “Dodgeball is a sport of violence, exclusion and degradation. So, when you’re picking players in gym class, remember to pick the bigger, stronger kids for your team. That way, you can all gang up on the weaker ones, like Winston here.”
Winston, a stereotypical nerd, gets a laugh here when he gets hit in the head and his glasses fall off. For many students, this is the miserable experience of schoolyard dodgeball.
Counterpoint: the nerdy team of misfits end up winning at the end of the movie.

Funny story, every sport and its strategy is about exploiting the weak link.
Football - Look that corner isn't very good, throw the ball against him
Hockey - That defenseman doesn't skate very well, lets attack that side of the ice
Baseball, their third baseman is terrible, hit the ball at him.
But the point that they miss, is that in dodgeball or murder ball, every kid has a chance for that moment to shine as well. That weak link kid catches the ball and gets a two player swing, or smashes the bigger stronger kid in the junk.
I guess these researchers want to make a sport where everyone wins, and it bolsters the weaker player.
Maybe some ideas
Hug ball - "You carry the ball over to an opponent and when you give him the ball he has to get a hug"
Fastest cow track and field - Give the slower kids a 5 second head start in everything. On the broad jump and high jump they get to use a springboard advantage.
The only problem I ever had with murder ball/dodge ball is when the teachers played because it felt like their throws were breaking the sound barrier.
I mean, when I was in school we used basketballs, I'm sure the generation before the used the shotput. We played dodge ball at a football night and there were these soft nerf balls.
As much as we as a society believe we are evolved, everything comes from strong versus weak. Nobody is going to give you a break when you enter the adult world, whether its at work or at home.
