It's a very poignant, lovely photo, my dear OriginalGeek.

Tainted by the shenanigans of Instragram Influencers Tik Tockers & YouTubers who stage these photo events to garnish likes. They often crash funerals, trash flower pastures and gardens, pose next to memorials for those who have fallen, pretend to be helping the poor or contributing to the community, when it's just a mere photo op, like the one Paul Ryan did in the already cleaned food kitchen.

There are videos and news articles all over the web that call out many of these people, but of the ones they call out, there might be a thousand that go by unreported. It's such a shame that our society has become so shallow that people do these things for clicks. Of course, the more clicks means the more their 'brand' improves and that translates to more dollars they make.
