Some people are just so vile ..
Jump to: Newest in thread
I dont go on book face much these days but I've just seen the news about Prince Philip's condition in hospital, and , reading between the lines , it doesnt sound good .
Now I'm by no means a royalist but some of the vile comments about another human being has stunned me . I'm kinda ambivalent in regards to the royals but this is a 99 year old guy who , although hasnt been perfect , is still entitled to a bit of respect and I for one hope he is ok .
I'm not really sure what my point is tbh , just wanted to share a bit of a rant I guess .
Hope he is ok |

Some people feel bad about themselves as they are not nice people.
There therapy is to make others feel as low as they are.
If they feel pain you must feel it too complex.
Keyboard warrior idiots x |

Facebook & twitter are vile.
I dont do social media, i quit facebook due to harassment towards me, i cant cope with the hate on both platforms.
Im not sure why people feel the need to be horrible. |

"Maybe people are jealous his son was allowed to visit when they can't visit their loved ones ?"
Yep, that would have ruffled a few feathers as it is a bit of a kick in the teeth to others who have elderly and ill relatives who they were not allowed to vist. |

I use Facebook and Twitter a fair bit. It’s easy to filter out people and posts you don’t like or want to see. Of course there’s a lot of rubbish there but it isn’t difficult to keep out. |

Me neither , it actually makes me sad that there is so much hatred in the world |

And I get that I really do , but some people were actually laughing and wishing another human being would die , and I just dont get that |

I use Facebook to keep in touch with my family who live in various parts of the world. I join groups now and again but as soon as I get a sniff of nastiness I leave the group. That way I can still use Facebook but don't see any of the awfulness.

When people see in hospital they're allowed visitors if they're at the end of their life.
I'm not saying that's the case here but if it is irs nothing to be jealous of |

Totally uncalled for. That is just nasty. |

Social media works on outrage. Upset people and they engage more with your products.
They've profiled you and worked out what will upset you. People are much the same as they ever were. Our views of the world are being skewed tho. |

"Are in hospital" that should say. |

I only use Facebook to see a few friends' pics and to keep in touch with my family who are abroad. I never post anything on there and get so upset at the hatred and arguments people have. I don't use Twitter or Instagram, Snapchat etc. I'm not really into the Royal Family but I would never say anything cruel about them. I must admit I did have some rotten feelings in my head about Mr Trump, but I wouldn't post anything about him; just my thoughts. |

They are allowed one visitor only where i work although one wife was so distraught we allowed her son in to comfort her. The other son and daughter were not allowed in. This was hours before the man died not a week or two. |

I don't know if it varies according to location but the ward my mum was in a woman was with her adult daughter night and day for about 72 hours. Obviously I don't know the circumstances and I wouldn't be surprised at all to find that the royals just do what they like. |

"Thats why I came off it, trolls everywhere thinking its their right to express vitriol."
When have you ever seen someone post:
"Oh...i didn't know that...I've now changed my opinion!"
People shout and don't listen |

Most of the hospitals do allow one visitor - not for Covid wards obviously. |

I thought only end of life visits were permitted, not general visiting. |

I deleted everyone off my f book in lockdown 1. Put 5 people back. 3 friends 2 family. But I barely open it so kinda pointless really.
It's so negative, people are vile, and the picture perfect lubes when you know the truth of it gets on my nerves.

Not on any social media anymore people should be made to stand infront of the person and repeat whatever they said online to their face . I read about all the abuse Sir Captain Tom’s family received after his death should be ashamed of themselves. |

I don't have any social media anymore either, it felt like a playground for bullies.
I am not a fan of the royals but I'd never wish badness or ill on anymore, just be a good kind person, so much easier than being a keyboard warrior gushing spite. |

Grumpy, I totally agree with you.
I rarely go on FB now as I'm sick of the trolls. I've seen a different side of some good friends - how can you actively wish someone would die??
Yes, he's a Royal, and a bit of a dick. Yes, I'm not a fan of them. But do I want him to die? Of course not.
And for those making comments about understanding "people" for trolling as they were not allowed to see relatives I can only say this - Is that his fault?? From what I can see, him & Liz have been isolating as someone of their age was required to.
(And many hospitals are now allowing 1 visitor - so it can be argued he's NOT receiving special treatment) |

I don't wish him to die, but I wouldn't shed any tears if he did.
He hit the jackpot 70 years or so ago and has lived in the lap of luxury ever since. In that time he's managed to become one of the most famous racists in the world. |

"People did the same about Captain Tom.
There's still some nice people in the world. "
Of course there are nice people still . Sadly its vile fuckers that get a rise out of deliberately upsetting people on a keyboard that sometimes get noticed more . It's what they crave , and it just makes them a sad pathetic individual |

Same here Tina.
But we're not actively willing him to die, are we? X |

"I wouldn't say this place is much different from Facebook
Nowhere near as bad mate "
I can see where you're coming from, its all relative. Women here recieve an unbelievable amount of abuse on a daily basis. Would they experience this kind of intensity on Facebook? I am not so sure |

I’m surprised people are so vile on Facebook. It’s got your name and whereabouts you live and often shows your family and friends on it as well.
So future employers or partners get to see your online presence and views. I’d think it would be a lot simpler to have extreme opinions on a site like this one, that shows your underlying negativity rather on a more public forum.
Each to their own I suppose |
