The reason people enjoy it is because violence is an extreme form of conflict and conflict is the root of all drama, going back to the Greeks and probably further.

Is viewing violence on tv good outlet for one's aggressive tension and therefore decreases the tendency to be aggressive in the long run?

No viewing violence is not a good outlet for aggressive tension because as many people watch it, what happens to some people is that the violence conflicts the person, so that in the future the person would like to get their anger and agression out using violence (like fighting) and that could lead to much more. It can strt like that and lead o something big, and turn you into an aggressive person. So no viewing violence is not a good outlet for aggressive tension. Hope this helped!

Why do people beat up people?

I personally think violence is never the answer, but some people are ghetto so they start to beat up people. Human behavior has always included violence. Generally, the violence is triggered by fear, anger, frustration, ignorance, or occasionally some form of mental disease or condition. Humans are prone to violence as a form of our innate trait to defend our lives. When a group of people gang up on a person to beat them up, it's a form of group empowerment, usually fired by adrenalin. But it still based on the triggers mentioned above. I have always hated violence. Brings up nothing. Makes everything worse. I think those people who fight have problems that's all.

Why do people like violence?

I think for many it is experiencing the sensation of being thrilled or scared in ways that most people do not get to experience in real life.

People also like watching horror films because they love watching something scary.
