- monkey_monkey 6y agoActually it's you being emotional and childish. Calm down, dear.
- gadders 6y agoHardly.
- smcl 6y agoThe original commenter is an Indian who would have more reason than most to despise the Royal family and, frankly, the UK in general. Yet they showed genuine compassion and goodwill towards Philip. This was surprising and I thought it interesting to share that as a Brit I have nearly no feelings at all (other than my general dislike of the monarchy). This is a forum, we interact and share our opinions through these comments and what I said was pretty uncontroversial. If you are bothered by his passing then fine, I'm sorry for your loss. But maybe trying to pick fights on HN is not the most productive way to grieve.
- gadders 6y agoTrying to be edgy by talking ill of the dead isn't either.
