The hierarchisation of triggers - The taxonomic classification of harm to bodies and the normalisation of violence
A mainstream media case:
When violence against pets takes place there is usually a strong trigger warning (TW) or content warnings (CW) before the act is shown/described on the mainstream media.
These warnings are supposed to avoid distress or trigger flashbacks in information consumers. It is giving them time to brace themselves in a hostile world or curl up in their inner bunker.
* When it comes to animals, such as pet abuse or injured wildlife there is often a warning by the ABCNEWS >

Dumped wildlife and
depressed and suicidal vets: excessive workloads and out-of-hours work, unsatisfactory remuneration, client abuse, and unclear regulations.A "report found a lack of consistency with local governments and unclear legislation had led to a public perception of vets as "the default drop-off location" for injured wildlife and other found animals, despite the responsibility lying primarily with local and state governments."
"Six of the 32 recommendations related directly to challenges faced specifically by regional vets, including an "unreasonable level of responsibility" for the care of lost and unowned animals, such as injured wildlife...Wildlife is one of those things that we're all deeply passionate about, that we want to help our native wildlife … but it does come at a strain in the cost to the clinic that is, at this point, not covered at all."
"Vets say daily abuse and a lack of understanding from clients are one of the biggest factors causing them harm." >>

Motorists killing road workers? Money over lives?
We'd rather not know"The way road trauma was classified contributed to that visibility problem."
"A traffic controller killed at a roadworks site does not appear in a public 'road worker' category."
"...While Queensland published weekly road toll figures, there was no one publicly accessible source that integrated public road fatalities, work-related road deaths, serious injury hospitalisations in one place or in near-real time. Road workers are especially vulnerable because they are exposed on high-speed corridors where a single reckless decision can have catastrophic consequences."
"Tragically, one afternoon Suzanne was struck by a truck travelling 106km/h in a 60km/h zone. The truck drove on the footpath and killed her." >>
