Possibly the saddest aspect of the passing of the Duke of Edinburgh (aside from the grief of his family, of course) is that people on Facebook I thought I knew a bit has turned out to be complete strangers, not to mention monumental assholes. In particular, one waste of good sperm who has been relentlessly trotting out the "royal parasite/never done a days work in his life" drivel... which is ironic in the extreme given that said individual, since walking out on his marriage of 20 years and more some 15 years ago, has basically sponged off his high-earning partner and hasn't, to my best knowledge, done a stroke of work since then.

People are complex, contradictory and to at least some degree hypocritical.
I’m sure it was somewhat off putting to read such things, but must that undo everything else you knew about that person?
Someone who writes such things might do so from a place of discomfort or dissatisfaction with their own situation and impotence.
It doesn’t sound like they were able engaging in a legitimate discussion about the merits of the royal family, so in the end all they’ve done is embarrass themselves whilst posing zero threat to the institution...and they’ll likely continue to embarrass themselves for as long as they’re written off as a waste of sperm.
And of course the internet is the arena in which people often show their worst selves and this may just be another manifestation of that.

I beg your pardon, I shall try to be a more perfect, understanding individual. As soon as I can find a f*** to give.

I wasn't so much wanting to be personal about it. I was just curious about what it might mean when people behave like that and what drives them to do so. You're an experienced guy so I put my musings out there to see if you had any thoughts.
