Also weird as fuck to be sneaking photos of children like this.
EDIT: I am ABSOLUTELY not defending child labor like this. It's all kinds of messed up. But it's also not an excuse to photograph children, and put their image online without their consent.
Is it "weird as fuck" to document archaic and abusive systems?
Nobody s documenting anything with that photo. It's an out-of-context snapshot. Could be anything. Part of a make a wish with a cancer patient. A school thing to experience five minutes of adulthood. A prank. Staged. You name it. What exactly is documented here?
So yeah, just posting some picture is weird as fuck.
I don't see how this was since one doesn't see children working at Culver's. OP wasn't aware that it was part of a fundraiser for some school thing... So now it's weird. They probably had signs up and OP missed it.
