Hi, I have posted some pictures of malnourished children here with the objective of reporting and keeping the sense that we have to act, but actually I’m not feeling good about this.

I ask myself weather this is abusing the child pain. It’s not a very logical reasoning, because it’s only thru reporting that people feel the urge to do something about it, but I really feel bad about it some times.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks

    I vote yes, but just make sure to keep them under not safe or work tags and blurred out so people don’t get surprised by them.

    It’s important to keep reporting on the terrible state of things. If we don’t talk about it, it won’t get addressed.

      I always tag with NSFW. You mentioned blurrying. Is this an extra option? How to use it?

        Nsfw is what i meant, it should blur by default!

        I didn’t mean to imply you weren’t. I was just noting in context :)

    Yes. Post it. Nobody gets to look away, especially here in this place. Tell their story, silence is complicity. Shout it from the rooftops.
