I've just made the mistake of reading some facebook comments under articles on the Paris terror attacks and it's bizarre how similar they are to the comments under cycling articles. Lots of "get their own house in order" comments, random selective quoting of the Qu'ran (/Highway Code), violent fantasies involving hypothetical confrontations imagined by the commenter. It doesn't seem to matter the magnitude of the event in question, the comments follow the same pattern. Have I stumbled on some sort of template for fuckwittery? Are these people actually bots controlled by the Illuminati?
