There is a difference we need to be careful of between posting something you know or suspect to be harmful directly to those it would cause harm to and posting something generally that causes harm that you are unaware of the potential harm.

What if you posted a video of a family disco, replete with flashing lights etc and someone sensitive stumbled on it and it caused them a problem?

We already have issues with "hate speech". If you say something that someone else finds hateful it can be construed as such.
