In response to the tragic Instagram post about a man and his four friends who passed away after eating a meal prepared by his ex-girlfriend, some comments have taken a troubling turn. One such comment reads, “Your ex cook for you. You chop? Una just too mumu for this life,” shifting blame onto the victims for accepting the meal.
This type of victim-blaming not only adds to the grief of those affected but also normalizes insensitivity toward tragic events. It dismisses the complexity of relationships and overlooks the fact that trust can exist even between ex-partners. During times of loss, social media should serve as a space for support, not mockery or misplaced judgment.
