At least, that's what my newsfeed on Facebook will tell you.
Every 4 seconds, another one of my friends shares a post that includes a picture of something so adorable, sad, or interesting. These pictures include instructions: "SHARE IF U WSH CANCER WAS GONE 4EVA!!!!!" or "HIT LIKE IF YOU WANT EVERY BABY TO BE BORN WITH TWO LEGS AND TWO ARMS!"
A good amount of these posts are innocent enough ("like if you see the hidden message"), but recently, these posts have become malicious and personally insulting. I've seen way too many pictures that say something like "Share if you love cupcakes, keep scrolling if you're a racist Nazi baby-killer."

But the worst kinds of these pictures are the ones that tell a story next to a picture of a sick orphan that ends with something like "Her doctors have agreed to save her life by performing the surgery she needs only if this gets 452 likes! THIS IS NOT A JOKE." well, part of that's true. It's not a joke. That's just a lie.

How do you know if the post you're sharing is obnoxious? Well, go by my one rule... When in doubt, close your laptop and throw it in a fire. Or, just STOP SHARING THEM.
