I was too young to know what was going on, but it does seem like it was the tipping point in terms of mass public hysteria. Her death made the headlines because she was already making the headlines. Her affair with Dodi meant pictures on the front pages every day. Then in an attempt to escape the people taking those photos, she died. In a sense, the people who greatly mourned her death were also indirectly the ones that caused it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea that peoples lives are destroyed by one isolated incident for a second of momentary gratification of the person looking for social media clout. Any court report shared to FB about even the most minor of crimes will almost certainly have some seething Facebook maw demanding the death penalty, or at least a public flogging. Each of these threads will also contain loads of posts along the lines of "Wot abt peedos" as if the Courts should never prosecute any other crime in existence.

Aye, Diana's death was the first one I remember seeing loads of griefers rocking up at memorials crying floods of tears about a total stranger. Radio stations refusing to play actual music for days, DJ Nicky Campbell publicly naming and shaming someone on air who called in to ask when music would be back etc. It was probably the first time I remember seeing people being called out by these griefers for "not showing enough respect" - like a practice run for the Poppy police. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're always filled with folk who have no understanding of the legal system too. A murderer will be sentenced to a minimum of 18 years or something, and half the comments will be folk going mental like 'Only 18 years?!!! he'll be out in 6 months on good behavioiur!!!! countries a fkn joke!!' Also on Diana's death, Ronaldo made his debut for Inter later on that day, i mind hearing James Richardson on a podcast a couple of years ago saying Channel 4 genuinely had loads of folk phoning up asking why the game was still going ahead - as if folk in Milan would give a f**k about a British tabloid figure, and also thinking Channel 4 had the power to postpone Serie A matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 From the OP….I think it’s fair to say that Britain at some point lost its collective mind. Please share below any instances of how this manifests itself. You could point to so many instances, but, surely, the game’s a bogey for brand UK when this was awarded both an OBE then a knighthood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
