Looking at this thread I have to say I don't get why it's so hard to understand for so many that yes, taking oh so hilarious selfies with random grave monuments is disrespectful to some people. Different cultures have different aproaches to burial and mourning and there isn't a "better" or "worse" way. Just because you like something more doesn't mean it's the only right and acceptable way.

Her own family's graves- sure, she can do whatever she wants with them. But if someone objects to a person doing this with other families' graves? It's really not that hard to respect that.

it's also really not hard not to throw a shitfit about it. it's not that big a deal.

Nobody said that throwing a shitfit was the appropriate response. But there are plenty of people ITT going "omg I don't see why this would possibly be disrespectful" which... really?

I think it's down to the post going up early enough that Europe got to participate before the post died. This isn't something most Europeans would even consider possibly being viewed as disrespectful. Our cemeteries are parks and green spaces and usually not even a little somber. There are benches for resting and enjoying the sun or the shade and bins and public facilities. The nicest rose garden in my county is at the crematorium where people often scatter ashes and that is something that is a positive event celebrating a person's life and giving their family and friends closure in a final goodbye. Cemeteries aren't about grief and loss, just remembering and living. In America it is like it is only about grief and very somber and sad.

Not everywhere in America, because I live in the US and a lot of the cemeteries around where I live are like that. They have benches and paths for walking and a lot of people go jogging/take walks there because it's nice and quiet. One of the ones nearby even has a beautiful garden that's a pretty big tourist destination. It was designed specifically for people to come and visit and enjoy the plants and the peaceful atmosphere.

But they were her family's graves, dude.

Get the fuck over yourself, people are only throwing a shitfit because they want to be offended.
