Apparently, right up to the moment of somebody choking to death, it can apparently give a lot amount of pleasure. I’m not saying you or anybody should try this (my english teacher told me this to warn us not to do it which is weird for her to even say). This is why strangulation play is liked bc the feeling right before you actually pass out/ choke to death is apparently really good and ppl like it
Erotic asphyxiation does have its extreme risks if it's not done safely. Breath play can feel pretty good when done just right with the trust of your partner. So I think your problem with this is because the strangling was non-consensual, which is key when performing these kinds of kinks in the bedroom You're right that it is disturbing that the dude didn't ask if he wanted to be choked, but this is just some hilarious erotica. As long as you're not copying or learning anything from this, don't take it too seriously and just laugh at the absurdity ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
There's more people than you think that don't know how to do it properly is what I can say. My english teacher mentioned that she knew young people who died from it, and it's not something to risk your life for. I'd say the safest and proper way for people who know how to do it are in this sex or BDSM industry or frequent them enough to know how to properly do it. Watching stuff on porn is the worst way to learn about sex education and the kinks to it but there are people who don't know that and believe what they see is safe.

I find it uncomfortable. Maybe because they forced themselves at each other. Or bc strangling is so disturbing even when people really do have this fetish. But when they feel like dying. ...(⊙…⊙ )
