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.
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.
If this was a playground or doing normal childhood activities, then yeah, but this is a fucking Culver’s (I think)… This is not normal.
Are we supposed to take OP at their word or something? “Guys there’s a kid working fast food! I would have taken a picture but it would have been weird. My Canadian girlfriend who was in town that you all have never met urged me not to!”
You take photos of extraordinary sights. I’m sure the shitheads who have allowed this to happen would agree with you since they want to normalize it.
I’m hoping there’s a legitimate, innocent reason for this.
There was an innocent reason apparently, from the now top comment:
“This is Culver’s. They’re a burger fast food joint located throughout the Midwest and have things called “Scoopy Night” where a percentage of the proceeds go toward a specific cause. Schools, dance groups, etc can partake and the kids who attend that school/dance group/etc help take orders and deliver food to tables. Not quite as dystopian as OP has made it seem.”
Oh my fucking god it’s a kid working behind a register in full work clothes, in broad daylight, surrounded by people. There is absolutely nothing about this that suggests predatory behavior except possibly some Capitalist tossing on a shiny wrapper for a reason this happens at all. Which, btw, this image circulates periodically. You can find explanations even in this comment thread.

Is it “weird as fuck” to document archaic and abusive systems?
