Insulin?
No thanks, I’m fine
So you also have an issue with people breast feeding in public?
The human body is not something to be ashamed of, the only reason why you think injections are bad is because of war on drugs, people inject themselves or get injections with legal stuff all the time. Vaccines…?
I'm not sure how you got here from there, but that's a pretty weird take.
Many people, perhaps even a majority, are grossed out by needles, in a similar way to blood or other physical injuries. I think warning someone about that is only fair.
NSFW should be used to warn against things that are visually disturbing, not ideas or concepts.
And people don’t have trauma related to drinking?
Do we need to nsfw spiders? What about other phobias…?
What you find non-disturbing other people will. That’s a very ignorant take.
I don't have any trauma related to needles, and I've had plenty of injections and blood tests over the years. I still find needles gross, like I would any other wound, and based on what's happening in the thread, I'd say that's a pretty common belief.
Yes and I’m pointing out that other people have other fears, which you’re ignoring.
Quite the hypocrite eh?
You mentioned people having a fear of dogs previously. Do you think a dog actively biting someone should be NSFW?
Do you not think a dog bite victim might not respond to an image of a dog the same way you respond to needles? You have a very ignorant view here.
Censor it! Most things can be unsafe for work. What if you are a formula one driver?? You should not be breastfeeding while driving a gazillion miles per 860 seconds
I’m sure most race tracks have breast feeding places actually. Lots of workplaces embrace it, sorry. It’s also legal in public… so…
Yes! This is all about being offended by breastfeeding! Everything is about breastfeeding!
No, it’s about the human body, injections and breast feeding are both normal things, but for some strange reason a portion of people get their panties in a bunch when people need to do these natural everyday things.
Most people who need insulin administer it very differently from people injecting heroin, for example. I am sorry for people that do need insulin injections, but I don't really want to see that without any warning on my frontpage.
Diabetics I have known that do require insulin injections also usually have a device that covers the needle similar to what an epipen looks like. The needle itself is not actually very visible, and the injection site is often clean and not swiss cheese.
Basically, I don't exactly want my frontpage to assault my eyes with heroin addicts posting pictures of themselves shooting up because they think its totally fine to post that since there is no rule requiring that to at least be NSFW tagged.
An injections an injection. I’m sorry you think there’s a difference.
I don’t like seeing people drinking on my feed, that’s a drug too. But ones apparently acceptable and ones not? Its probably because of people who think for some reason that natural human functions are to be looked down on.
People draw arbitrary lines for everything, smoking a cigarette is fine, but a joint isn’t for those same people. You are apparently part of this hypocrisy group.
One involves poking a hole in someone's skin, which a lot of people get the heebie-jeebies about. NSFW should be used on things people find visually disturbing.
Lots of public advertisements depict people getting vaccines.
Oh no, it’s a needle!
People find spiders disturbing, do we need to censor those? What about people with dog trauma? You are extremely ignorant if you don’t think people can’t be traumatized by anything. Needles aren’t scary.
That's a very privileged thing for you to say, I think. It's also a bit bizarre how much you've dug your heels in over this.
No it’s real life, people are scared by spiders. We can’t just stop posting them because a few people get the heebie jeebies.
Public advertisements show it, on the TV even!
You want accommodations for your fears, but scoff at others. You’re just a hypocrite, like I already explained.
You're a strange fellow.
I’m just wondering why you seem to have a specific issue with needles, but don’t seem to have an issue with pushing the same trauma if someone has a spider or other phobia?
I said everyone has a line, yours is needles, others is spiders. Do you want them to accommodate spiders and other phobias and traumas too?
I've explicitly said I don't have a phobia of needles, my point was any injury should be flagged NSFW.
You said you find needles gross, what would you call that other than a phobia…?
And since when are needles an injury? Needles are first aid, and first aid is nsfw…? That’s the strangest take I’ve seen in this post yet, wow.
Are you actually suggesting everything I find gross is a phobia? I also find vomit and dog slobber gross, are those also phobias?
And vaccines are first aid?
What?
So you would want dog slobber and vomit censored too? I asked a question, don’t dodge it. Those are even more natural bodily functions. Why are you so ashamed of the human body and its functions?
Of course vaccines/injections are first aid, a tetanus shot is one of the first things they give you if you get a laceration or stab from something potentially infectious. What about local freezing? Epi-pen…?!
