There are only 50-60 real, active users here. The morons come in, act like morons and their engagement falls to zero fairly quickly. Since these style of people feed on attention and drama, and since Hubski is really good at denying them this oxygen they desperately need to live, they go elsewhere.

If you want to post bestiality or other terrible stuff? There are multiple other sites where that style of content won't stick out and even some where that content would be encouraged because outrage and shock are 'funny' to some people. I'd list a few that I've run across but doing so helps them in the Google rankings, so no.
