QUOTE
The internet is a bit like a soap opera, in that the dialogue often seems
phoney. As a human, you know this. You know a lot of that squabbling and
babbling just doesn't ring true. No species that angry could have survived
the invention of fists. Online, even a whimsical chit-chat about the cutest
part of a kitten can rapidly descend into a bitterly entrenched civil war
that tears families apart, with brother turning on brother while their
mother looks on, weeping. Resolving Palestine looks like a piece of piss by
comparison.

Timely, (keep your fists in your pockets folks).
