Re: Fake News: An Age 14 Boy Who Did Nothing but Smile is Vilified by the Media
The internet has brought out the very worst in human behaviour generally. Look at the social media and news reaction to this so called 'story' ......
A bunch of people, who are nothing to do with me, arguing over subjects that aren't dear to me ..... small snippets are posted and people construct an entire story around them completely according to their existing viewpoint.
Then a whole bunch of people go online, post aggressive gibberish and ill informed half truths, telling everybody else what to think. Eventually it descends - inevitably - into rape and death threats and shrieks of outrage. Some people build it into an elaborate analogy of 'the world today', some just like to get offended and everyone is just as intolerant as each other
You could write the same précis about most of these types of story every day
