I've felt this way for a long time. I've actually started to shy away from violent movies and games because of it. I don't want to get pleasure out of watching another person's suffering, even if it's fictional. I think gore is disgusting, and I don't understand why so many people enjoy seeing it.

I've tried to express these feelings on reddit before, but I'd always get downvoted to oblivion (partially due to my inability to express myself as eloquently as you have).
