It is, in an unspeakable nutshell, a case that shines a harsh light on the darkest corners and worst impulses of the internet in 2024.
Anigar Monsee, a 28-year-old woman from Upper Darby, Pennsylvania, hoped to become an online influencer. Sheās now behind bars for what authorities say was a twisted idea for generating likes and clicks, according to the Delaware County Daily Times:
Torturing helpless Animals on video while posing in revealing outfits.
Her YouTube account, titled āMotheranddaughter,ā featured a woman slowly mangling and killing various types of Animals, including ārabbits, chickens, frogs and pigeons,ā the newspaper reported, citing a criminal complaint.
The methods she used are so graphic, we must warn you:
This is not a story for the weak of stomach.
For instance, one of the videos was called āCooking luckyā and was streamed live on Jan. 19.
The video āshows the woman alongside a live chicken in a sink,ā the Daily Times reported Jan. 22.
āThe woman repeatedly commented on the number of viewers and likes, and solicited more, before she harmed the animal,ā the report stated.
āAt 9:56, and for roughly the next 10 minutes, she aggressively handles the clearly terrified animal, plucking feathers from the birdās neck, and hacked repeatedly at the struggling birdās throat with knives while the animal attempted to escape.
āAt one point the bird jumps out of the sink, the woman then climbs onto the counter and pins it with her feet before sawing at the birdās neck in a slow back and forth motion. She continued carving at the animalās neck for more than two minutes, until the screen went black.ā
Furthermore, these videos go back months ā with confirmed animal torture videos starting as early as August.
In September, a video titled ācook with Ani (coking frogs and fufu)ā showed the woman disemboweling live frogs, joking on camera that one struggling, dying animal was ādancing.ā
Two other frogs were killed in a similar manner, with Mongsee allegedly singing āHappy Death Dayā to the tune of āHappy Birthdayā as they died.
Nor, in fact, was this just about torturing Animals, sadly.
āA video titled āCookingā posted in August shows the woman with a live pigeon,ā the Daily Times reported.
āShe encouraged viewers to ālikeā the video before she kills the animal and repeatedly makes sexualized comments. It appears that some of the viewers may have joined the livestream specifically for the sexualized content.ā
And the sad part? The perverts played along.
Among the comments: āPlease put black socks or white socks.ā āLove it with your feet.ā āPlease slaughter under your feet.ā āDo you love with your feet?ā
The chat moderator on her channel encouraged this behavior, writing, āIf yāall send her money to buy the animal she will cook your requestā and āIf yall donāt like sheās not going to start.ā
A fourth video, according to the New York Post, involved Monsee torturing a rabbit to death with what was described as a ādull knife,ā according to Police.
The channel was popular enough to garner more than 20,000 subscribers as of the time of Mongseeās arrest.
In one of the few cases where pretty much everyone across the sociopolitical spectrum can give praise and thanks to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, PETA informed Police about reports it had been receiving regarding videos from the account, according to Upper Darby Police Superintendent Timothy Bernhardt.
According to WCAU-TV in Philadephia, Police said they played back Mongseeās videos to her ā and she ābecame visibly upsetā and wanted them turned off.
Perhaps even more amazing is that Big Tech, ever censorious when it comes to political opinions that donāt line up with the left, somehow didnāt terminate the channel even after her arrest.
While Mongsee was booked on Jan. 19 on four charges of aggravated cruelty to Animals, the videos that got her charged remained on YouTube, owned by Google, until Jan. 25.
Itās unknown why it was up; no comment was given by YouTube to the Post, and WCAU was simply provided with a boilerplate non-explanation explanation: āContent that is violent or abusive toward Animals is not allowed on YouTube, and we have terminated the channel in question,ā the statement said.
As for Mongsee, she was being held on a $200,000 bond in Delaware County Jail and had not retained representation at last report. Her first court date is scheduled for Monday.
So, what do we have here? Well, for starters, perversion of the highest order ā something that would be unspeakable in any era yet is somehow unsurprising in the desensitized, depraved world PornHub and its ilk have created for us.
Except, allegedly, Mongsee was doing this on a major tech platform ā and she was doing it to become an āinfluencerā in animal torture Pornography, according to Police. Itās all about the likes and clicks, after all ā and with over 20,000 subscribers before the channel got shut down, it certainly got enough of those.
And then, thereās the matter of how ā or rather,Ā when ā the channel was shuttered.
Mongseeās case hit the headlines on Jan. 22, which one would think would be high time for it to be taken off YouTube. According to Police, these videos have been taking place since August, at the very least.
For a company with content algorithms that are supposed to flag problematic material, wouldnāt live, sexualized animal torture somehow set off an AI alarm? Apparently not ā and not even a newspaper story that named the account and what was allegedly hosted on there still didnāt get it removed for another three days.
Meanwhile, donāt misgender somebody, or else youāll get demonetized by Google. Transphobia and all.
This is our poxed, nauseating world. This is how far people will go to satisfy their depravity ā and how people will happily provide the goods so long as you give them attention.
Anyone who thinks anti-porn, anti-Big-Tech voices are just prudes and luddites, look at this. Look closely.
Itās part of the world weāve created, where followers are currency and reprobates can hide behind the anonymity of the computer screen, curdling in their own wretched urges.
And if that doesnāt make you sick, consider that it only gets worse before it gets better.
