Unforgivable Cruelty

I've just read the news of the suicide of a person related to a royal European family. Although I know nothing about any of them, I was struck by some comments to the article. Such meanness, such unbelievable wickedness in people who call themselves "human beings" and who possibly even believe to be "religious". Why? Why do people - yes - so many of them shelter such hatred towards other individuals they have never heard about. Not only. Why do they feel the need to spit out their venom publicly? Is it because these strangers are possibly rich, maybe famous? Is it a matter of envy, jealousy? Do other people's more opulent lives make them feel a failure? In whatever case... how sad! What a dreadfully degrading image of mankind. I wonder what opinion might Aliens have of us. If they exist, what they see should certainly make us blush.
