Recently I’ve had a connection to a couple of situations which have been in the news. The social media commentary from complete randomers who made statements confidently as if they knew the facts but were massively wrong has made me wonder what goes on in people’s minds when they post. It was pretty upsetting when the connection was to a death and people were (incorrectly) talking about the cause of death.
On another (but connected) note, where a crime has been committed and people state with huge confidence what the police should be doing, as if the police don’t know the basics of how to do their job.
If you do this, I’m really interested to know why, I’m sure no one means to upset anyone. I’d just like to understand better.
