This isn't meant to be a post about how awful Facebook is in general - I like it for the most part and ignore most of the crap!!
However this has bothered me, sorry for the long post.
Last week my local BBC ran a pretty minor news story, Daily Mail sad face style. It ran on the local website and on the radio. A phone in comment was held, most people thought the woman was being pretty daft - she was ill advised in her moaning, possibly insensitive.
Today a few friends have shared a post by the family who have been left upset by this woman moaning. I should add that this family are in no way identifiable by the woman's complaint and they are not the ones the woman is upset with, their upset is because of an emotional situation.
In the post the 'moaning woman' is herself pictured, and named, she has a photograph of her property and the road she lives in next to that and her profession which makes it incredibly easy to pinpoint her place of work. Personal things are said about her and accusations made that have nothing to do with her original BBC story.
Cue lots of shares, loads of comments agreeing what an awful person this woman is, how many posters would have punched/slapped her. People will refuse her if they come across her through her work etc, etc its pretty horrible.
AIBU to think this is pretty awful and surprised at Facebook for not removing it (I reported the post)
