How video games unwittingly train the brain to justify killing.

In 2016, technology and media have turned genocide viral. The video game Mortal Kombat X features spines being snapped, heads crushed and players being diced into cubes.

Characters beg for mercy before execution, frequently during profanity-laced rants.
