Maybe not irony but can't think of a better word.
Someone has posted on Facebook about an incident at our local playgym. Apparently, some 'Romanian women' were there covertly taking photographs of others people's children playing, for the purposes of child trafficking according to the poster. There was a confrontation which resulted in a fight with chairs being thrown and the police were called. The poster has urged everyone not to take their children there anymore as it's not safe and to share the post.
Cue hundreds of people tagging each other and freaking out about how you can't take your kids anywhere, nowhere is safe anymore, how they'd handle it by beating the women up and a few racist posts just fit good measure, etc etc.
Most of them have pictures of their kids in their public profile pictures
I despair, honestly. Dying to post something along those lines but I'm resisting so far
