Lisa Cuddy Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I was scrolling down my newsfeed the other week when a video started auto-playing of something I found rather horrific - I reported the link but was informed by Facebook that it met its standards as it was trying to raise awareness (or some other sort of pish !!) The only awareness it actually highlighted was how much of a cock the original poster was !! I've reported pornographic videos on facebook before for "nudity or pornography" or whatever category it comes under. I've also been told that it didn't fall outwith facebook standards! I've reported racism and "hate speech" and been told the same thing. It's fucking bizarre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In case you do http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2714169/Photographer-takes-heartbreaking-photos-stillborn-baby-grieving-family.html I have some sympathy with these. Many parents to stillborn babies feel the need to share their child with others as a validation of their child's life, a way of showing "yes, s/he really did exist" and to have photos of the child is something tangible and permanent, they can't forget the child's face and how big/small they were and so on. It's really not unusual or odd and the practice of taking these photos dates back to the very early use of cameras. It only seems strange because we're all far more squeamish about death these days. Sharing on Facebook or in national newspapers just increases the knowledge of the child's existence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
