One that really gets under my skin:
Dude 1: Makes the news for dying. Cause of death never given.
Dude 2 (shocked): "What happened to him?"
Dude 2's comment gets deleted, his family curses him as an insensitive monster for wanting to know, because "why can't you just give the family a chance to breathe?" Everyone dogpiles on him for being a bastard for simply wanting to know what happened to someone he was once on a soccer team with. Because it's okay to be insensitive... but only when Dude 2 is the recipient of the insensitivity.
Random gal on the same Facebook thread: "Whoa? What happened?"
Gal's mother: "Natural causes."
The EXACT SAME CRITICS: "Eh, whatever. She's understandably curious. Everyone should just, understand that, everyone grieves differently."
Me: "But not Dude 2? What makes his grieving process illegitimate?"
The critics: "Shut up!"
