It feels like lemmy users are too shy because of reddit popularity.
I see you’ve never heard of the 90%/9%/1% rule of social media users.
90% are lurkers. 9% are intermittent posters. 1% are heavy use posters.
It’s not that people are shy, it’s that literally with a fraction of the userbase Reddit has, that 10% that actually makes posts is just a smaller number of people.
The photo first appeared in The Vidette-Messenger of Valparaiso, Indiana on August 5, 1948. The children looked posed and a bit confused as their pregnant mother hides her face from the photographer.
The caption read: “A big ‘For Sale’ sign in a Chicago yard mutely tells the tragic story of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Chalifoux, who face eviction from their apartment. With no place to turn, the jobless coal truck driver and his wife decide to sell their four children.
Mrs. Lucille Chalifoux turns her head from the camera above while her children stare wonderingly. On the top step are Lana, 6, and Rae, 5. Below are Milton, 4, and Sue Ellen, 2”.
Family members accused the mother of being paid to stage the photo, which may have been part of the story, but unfortunately, she was dead serious about selling her children. Within two years all of the children pictured, as well as the baby she was carrying at the time, were sold off to different homes.
This photo has also circulated on Reddit and elsewhere for years so most of us have probably already seen it and were aware of the true and dark history surrounding it.
