#but the way people have been acting irt recent events is absolutely ghoulish

I keep seeing people asking for “proof” of the slaughter in Israel. So a general reminder, you are not owed images of the brutality of war. You are not owed pictures of bodies of those whose families might not even know they are dead. You are not owed suffering.

In this case, different cultures have different death practices. Jews believe in a dignified death, and while modern practices vary across communities, the Talmud forbids gazing at the face of the dead.

Therefor, it is culturally abhorrent for you to request that the Jewish people exploit their dead just for you to express minimum empathy.
