I am speechless. At first I thought it would be some kind of shallow selfie that would portray this and sure in some ways it almost is that. But who would do such a thing and how and why would they ever have an idea cross their mind that this was something photo worthy in such context? It is appalling. And then it isn’t the individual either that’s the problem actually. Thank you for bringing this into the bigger picture - how all of us especially the youngest ones are plagued by this never ending thirst for social media approval and “fame”. It is so hard nowadays to connect with other humans in a meaningful way. Social media is making sure we are far removed from any true human connections and only aims to erase even a potential of any meaningful connections in the future for us humans worldwide. So sad and heartbreaking. I truly hope we will get out of this and turn a corner for the better some days away from such shallow meaningless social media desires.
Thanks Lina. Yes, it hurt me as well to see this, especially with what is going in the world today in terms of anti-semitism - front page of most major newspapers.
