I found the outpouring of emotion and grief at the death of Princess Diana to be a very strange reaction, but I find the expression of solidarity and compassion with those experiencing grief or loss a heart warming, uniting and overwhelmingly good thing.
No doubt you would just dismiss it as mere virtual signalling.
I think I’m pretty empathetic and sympathetic in general, and I also found the response to Diana’s death strange. But I’m not sure showing compassion for people experiencing grief they don’t really have a right to experience is appropriate.
By the way, this was my best mate. 21 years old in 1988. Several more followed. I’m not without feelings!!!
