Instagram Influencers Are Flocking to the Site of the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster. Oh Boy…

We live in very strange times, friends. Because of the success of the hit HBO show Chernobyl, naturally now Instagram “influencers” are descending on the site of the 1986 nuclear disaster in Ukraine (and risking their health) to have their photos taken. Seems like kind of a disrespectful place to showcase your fabulous lifestyle, doesn’t it?

The show’s creator even tweeted this message out.

It kind of reminds me of this story about people taking “playful” photos at the site of the Auschwitz concentration camp.

Get a load of these photos. Very bizarre…
