Seriously Now
I was just on Facebook. By “just on” I don’t mean I was just telling the world about my new fridge and the precise temperature it manages to maintain and how amazing it is and how everyone should know it because, well, who wouldn’t want to know that? No, I mean I was just on it looking about and checking my messages, seeing what my friend Adam had to say about his brand new Gastric band and all that (he says it’s wicked and thoroughly recommends it). I don’t really go in for Facebook to tell you the truth. One of the things I especially don’t like about it is when people write things that are particularly offensive, I mean outrageously so. It isn’t so much the offensive things I mind as the people who comment on the offensive things. That really offends me!
The comment in question was a joke; it was about the recent Cumbria shootings and, while I could see how a certain type of person could find this sort of thing vaguely amusing, it was sick and unnecessary and altogether out of order. It got me wondering: what are the people at Facebook HQ doing allowing this kind of thing? Fair enough if it was a one-off but truth be told there are loads of outrageous things said on Facebook, and someone should at least moderate it.
I might sound like an old fart, and maybe I am, but honestly, is it so hard to police this sort of thing?
