I saw plenty of comments -- and entries in their own journals -- from people I know personally offline, as well as from my LJ friends and acquaintances. Some I had sort of half guessed, others were surprises. The surprises, while still painful, became less surprising as the scope was driven home. Along the way I started realizing whom I feel the most protective of. And that I don't usually know what to say.
"Showing no signs of slowing down" ... Something very powerful has happened here yesterday and today. Does anyone have even a remote guess how many other journals contain discussions sparked by this, that are still going on or just starting up?
We're going to need a lot of buttons.
The part that truly mystifies me is the existence of the trolls. I cannot wrap my head around their mindset. I get "irreverent", I get irony, I get "naughty", and I get black-humour, but I can't fathom the trolls.
