What Wikipedia says

A shock site is a website that is intended to be offensive or disturbing to its viewers, though it can also contain elements of humor or evoke (in some viewers) sexual arousal, or which contain hate speech and dehumanization which causes the site to target people with their social identities such as gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, age, skin color, disability/neurodiversity, nationality, body type, appearance, height, weight, and more.
