Topic: Does the Internet Attract Morons?

This site has many classic examples of photojournalism at its best.

Each photo is accompanied by commentary from internet surfers.

But this post is not about photography.

It's about stupidity. Sure most of them are just trolls, but those aren't the ones i'm worried about.


Take any of the photos depicting tragedy and read some of the comments.

Yeah, but from what I saw, the moronic comments are in the minority. Considering the implications of the Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory, I find that rather heartening.

you know...it's a shame really. Here's a site that posts all in one place pictures of historic nature, and there are some of the most ignorant comments I've read in a while. Then again, the site programmer should have made either no comments or at least moderated the comments.
