To not be comfortable with

[livsmum4]

People taking selfies auschwitz and posting them on social media ?!?

It’s gross

Same as people who take selfies at the World Trade Centre or any other place that a tragedy has occurred

YANBU-words fail as to how anyone imagines that is appropriate.

I went and felt the same. I didn't take any photos.

It was distasteful in the extreme to me.

Thank god it’s not just me.

A few people on my social media uploaded photos of them selfs infront of signs and of some of the items there and I just found it so distasteful and disrespectful.

Not selfies no, but museum photos are freely available on the internet.

We went last year and it sickened me, seeing that kind of behaviour. I did take a couple of pictures as advised by our guide but not with people in, just one of the gateway and the train line and they will never ever be shared they are in an old fashioned photo album to serve as a reminder of one of the most humbling experiences of my life. I truly believe all school children should go, it's a more worthwhile trip than skiing etc, and so much to learn in Krakow itself too.

We went to New York in 2002 and went to pay our respects at ground zero, I was absolutely disgusted at the groups taking photos of themselves grinning and pointing at the boards on the fence (that told the story of 9/11) People are morons

That's just a creepy and weird thing to do.
I visited Ground Zero New York a few years after the event. It wasn't my reason for visiting the city, but it seemed wrong not to go and pay my respects whilst I was there.
There were a group of tourists taking a lot of pictures and it just felt horribly wrong. Why? Seemed a weird thing to put in your photo album.
And here's where we visited the site of an atrocity that's still a mass grave....
Why?

I understand wanting a reminder of how humbling these types of experiences I just don’t get the posey Facebook posts.

Each to their own I guess. I just needed to no it wasn’t just me not comfortable with this as others were commenting on how lovely the poster looked and hope they had a lovely break.

All those bodies, awful. So disrespectful to ignore the significance and history of these places.
