Welp Time to Abandon the boat! It was fun when it lasted without being fullblown guro (as much semi guro out of food stuff materials)! *jumps out of the scene*

Bit premature there, we can still hope this doesn't catch on.
(And we definitely have to be on a spaceship, cause no way the weird shit we see around here is terrestrial. XP)
I find that image of a yukkuri reimu being abyused and thrown down the stair, only to have the actual Reimu beaten and half dead in the last picture, far more disturbing than this.

My point of view is that, yukkuri is a kind of imaginary creature. Anything that makes it nonsense keeps it in the fantasy; anything that brings it to resemble things in real life leads to loss in the imaginary part. Destruction of the imaginary part brings yukkuri to destruction.
What could be nonsense to yukkuri?
Itself being an imaginary creature, round and fat and resembles characters' heads.
and is composed of strange, non-flesh materials like dough and bean paste.
Doing things stupid, silly, weird and nonsense in real world, like mitotic-multiplication in post #30409, reacts oddly in slot machine in post #48066, and more.
Parodies.
Interaction with characters in Gensokyo.
Slight-teasing and light-bullying.
Being childish and slow and not-so-smart and less than intelligent.
Take It Easy!
What could be uneasy for the imaginary part of yukkuri:
Mortality. The more the humans participate in their deaths, the more uneasiness.
Death due to natural disasters (at least in yukkuri-scale, like heavy raining and snowing) or predation is bad, because it tells the story that yukkuri lives like wild animals in real world.
Death due to torture is worse, because it brings not only death but also pain and despair.
Death due to justice (following offense to other yukkuris or human) is as bad as torture, because it brings yukkuri under ruling of common sense and morality.
Spawning
Asexual reproduction, like rubbing faces against another, is nonsense, so it may be good for the imaginary part.
Sexual intercourse, especially with the emphases on "imaginary" organs produced, is disgusting and resembles real life. So, bad of the fantasy.
Raping, especially with the emphases on the fate of the victims (often leading to deaths).
Vegetarian multiplication is not too bad for the fantasy, because in real life sentient creatures don't multiply in this way.
Mammalian multiplication, especially with the emphases on the pain in giving birth, is bad.
Being defined clearly that is made of (specified) food substance
Bad if it gets screwed by physics and biology in this way, say, dissolves in water or eaten by ants or dogs or birds
Having real-organism-like anatomy
Creature composed of moist dough as skin and bean paste as filling is fantastic and nonsense, so good for the fantasy itself.
Creature requiring food and drinks is not bad; but if it has to excrete and the instinct to avoid the excretion, it resembles real-life too much.
Creature with very detailed anatomy, like the core paste, guts, explicitly-emphasized teeth and eyeballs and "paste-tone" resembling muscle tone, as well as diseases like molding, injury to core, Anti-yukkuritis etc. are disgusting and resembles real life too much.
And many other things that are contradictory to the ultimate aim, "Take it easy!"
While it might have gone too far by considering its existence in philosophical methods, it's sometimes amusing to re-think about what is a yukkuri, and what is the "proper" behavior of a yukkuri. I'm not saying that people should stop drawing abuse- and torture- and justice- orientated arts, and I'm not saying that their effort should not be appreciated. But think about it: What is the nature of Yukkuri? What is its uniqueness? Does all the considerations stated above bring it to the real world, and is it uneasy at all?

Believe me, if yukkuris were invented by a wizard or something that wizard would have the most fucked up sense of humor imaginable.
Also, honestly, why is this so much more alarming than the millions of other pictures involving yukkuris being violently maimed? The only difference here is that this yu probably wouldn't taste as good as the others :\. It's the exact same concept; when you squeeze a yukkuri like that you are squeezing out its guts... you are squeezing out the substance that allows it too live. Just like with getting your guts squeezed out it brings about incredible amounts of agony and probably kills it. So really, just because it's more relatable to human internals that makes it more disturbing? I'd be willing to bet that this is just a literal representation of what a yukkuri goes through when you kill it like that; a look at abyuse through the eyes of a yukkuri.
