Snapchat, I think you already know that you are not among my favorites. I just want to understand what was the point of this story. I’d like to call it ignorance, but I know you’re not stupid. You spent money to make animated characters who deliberately would discredit those who have become victims of violence, and laughed at them. It’s not about my personal feelings, because not many of them. But you humiliated of children, women and men who are victims of domestic violence– said Rihanna in her Instagram Stories.
