Thousands of people are using the hashtag #jesuisbruxelles to show solidarity with Brussels and the dozens of people killed or wounded in today's deadly terror attacks. Repeating the French 'Je suis' phrase that became a hallmark of support for France in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo attacks, some 80,000 people have now used it to send their support to Belgium. Many of these are in the form of illustrations or cartoons in the Belgium national colours next to the French tricolour.

Enough of this meaningless, spineless crap.

Let's all hold hands while our head are being chopped off.

Sitting down at your computer or thumbing your smartphone relieves you of any moral obligation to punish the savages who did this, or to prevent such predations in the future.

Call it Twitter Salvation.

Too bad that Social Media doesn’t have an army, intelligence service or police force to actually do something beyond engage in an orgy of self-indulgence.

If Twitter had been around during the 1930s....they would have hashtagged him left and right. Even when the Americans and Brits arrived at the Concentration Camps....they would have hashtagged that.

It means literally nothing.

Gestures such as this are the SAFE and EASY thing to do. Nothing active nor risky on their part. It’s akin to seeing someone ‘naked and hungry and wishing them good cheer’. Pathetic indeed......

Slactivists back in action! FB & Twitter better cue up a lot of Watermark flags to put over your Profile picture because this is not ending anytime soon.
