Rub\u00e9n Dom\u00ednguez is a Spanish fashion specialist \u2013 as he describes himself on his Instagram profile (@ruben_dominguez94) \u2013 who has received a ton of criticism on social networks. The reason? As you may have guessed, he took pictures of himself with an haute couture bag at different spots of the former Nazi concentration camp, in Poland, where a million people were murdered during WWII.<\/p>\n

The images, that are no longer uploaded on Dom\u00ednguez\u2019s profile, were titled \u201cAuschwitz Day,\u201d \u201cStreet style in Auschwitz\u201d and so on. They had several hashtags such as #Gucci, #fashion, #menwithstyle, #influencer, etc. In the pics, the Spanish youth is seen posing with brand clothes and bags in the most well-known places in the concentration camp.<\/p>\n

Some have seen this refusal to apologize as a sign of egotism. What is true is that today, Instagram has a few less horrible pictures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
