9.10.15 Queen + Adam Lambert Rio Press Conference, more news

Why do we all read comment sections on articles? We KNOW they are frequented by trolls and strange, disturbed individuals who enjoy stirring muck and making outrageous statements. This is not just articles about Adam. Read a news article about some terrible tragedy, and there will be sick comments making fun, blaming the victims, and spouting their own strange agendas.

Besides, why do we CARE what some total stranger says or thinks? I am not talking about subject matter experts or those with direct knowledge about the situation. Those people might have insight we could appreciate. But why do we care about the opinions of whoever has a keyboard and an internet connection?

I do it, too. I am guilty of reading and elevating my blood pressure. I know better! Recently, I have made a resolution to just STOP reading comments, letters to the editor and opinion pieces. There is nothing I can do about the ignorant, cruel, vicious, and ridiculous comments, so why read them and get upset? You have my permission to remind me when I break my resolution in the future.  Or just tell me to watch this YT again.
