She should be reminded that those people are just scum. Twitter is such a public place. There's no way not to get offended. You're searching for topics close to home and away from it as well. There are cruel people in this world. I deleted my person on twitter years ago. It's also the reason why I never stayed on Facebook either. If I have to live away from someone knowing who I am than I rather it be my tag name.

What do you get out of expressing this sentiment in a thread like this exactly? Not the place dude.

Seems Zelda saw the image being spread around and is dropping from Twitter, possibly forever.

I feel fucking awful for her.
The damage is already done, but it might help her a tiny bit if someone could get a hold of her and tell her it's fake...
It's not about you, it's about respecting his family's privacy.
I feel fucking awful for her.

If it was me, tbh it wouldn't comfort me learning that either. The damage is done. The fact that it's being put out there as truth is as bad as the act. Were it my father...
It's more then that pic, bunch of twitter ppl harassingI feel fucking awful for her.

Some people are absolutely vile. It surprises me every damn time. What exactly kind of high do you get out of being so torturous to a grieving daughter? Taking time out of your day to tear down someone who's not even part of your life...fuck me...
Somebody linked a picture to her? What the actual fuck is wrong with some people?
Get out of this thread. We don't need this toxic shit in here.

This is the only celebrity death that has ever gotten to me.
This is extremely hard to believe.

If you search someone's Twitter handle in terms of posts instead of users, you can see what messages people are sending to them.
edit: I guess she did mention it as well on her handle before deleting the message.
I don't get people can behave like this. I hate how social media had given idiots such a large platform to express themselves. I kinda wish there was a way to upvote downvote twitter accounts for example. The lower your rank, the lower you'll appear on feeds, and if it's low enough, then you can't post content anymore.
I don't either. Had a person do this on private RO server a long time ago when we thought a friend had died. This guy made me angry for the first time in a long time, I wanted to reach through the screen and punch his face in. Finally a mod showed up and IP banned him but it wasn't enough! He kept coming back until the mod decided to IP ban the entire area for a bit.
These people hit all sorts of buttons in me. You never speak ill of the dead and use that to hurt their family and friends.

As if intelligence and number of followers have a positive correlation.
What a gross thing to say.

The cold-hearted, standoffish stigma regarding suicidal tendencies and depression is an unfortunate reality that many suffering people have to deal with.
When you tell a depressed / suicidal person to "suck it up," that they "should just get help and get better already," or that "they're a lesser person," it tends to just push them deeper into despair.
As we have seen from the tragic passing of Mr. Williams, even the most beloved actor and comedian can suffer intensely. It isn't something that's easily fixable.
So please...be sensitive about the situation.
Who talked about followers?

Those two that were sending Zelda the picture have had their twitter accounts suspended at least.

Even if the pic was 2yrs old, why the fuck would anyone photoshop that?? Some people...

The brain is just an organ, things can go wrong with it like with anything else. If they do, the way your mind thinks changes too.
Depression isn't just someone being sad or weak. It's a disease.

It's going to be extra hard for her to escape hearing about her dad for a while. I hope she's able to find a way to get some privacy.

That's awesome. Was there a connection between Apple and Robin Williams?
The part where he talks about depression is heartbreaking.
Whoever is linking those pictures to Zelda can go fuck themselves. I wish ISPs could track those people down and cancel their service forever at the very least. It's clearly harassment. I don't mean just because she's a celebrity -- anyone doing this kind of bullshit to someone that just lost a loved one deserves nothing but my contempt and maybe a thorough asskicking.
Moreso than that though, I wish there was a way to reach out to her and her family and find some way to offer support. She is a fantastic woman, as was her father. This is so upsetting.

Well put. Losing respect for someone who commits suicide while not in their right mind is tantamount to losing respect for someone for falling asleep. There are biochemical issues going on in the brain. The very core of what helps you make decisions and be yourself is compromised. No amount of mental fortitude can combat that.
To imply someone who commits suicide while depresses is a coward is, at best, to lack any semblance of empathy, and at worst, downright ignorant.

Those pictures are so fucking terrible.
RIP Robin Williams, your memory shouldn't be tarnished like this.

I'm not sure how they figured out how old the pic is, but a reverse Google image search leads back to a Spanish Tripod.com site about strangulation.

wow we really are the dumbest species living on the planet
Well, it could be fake, or if it's real, it could still be of anyone else right? Still pretty pathetic and baffling. People who do this kind of shit are suffering exactly as much as Robin was probably. Can't explain this shit with just "They're evil.".

Germany's biggest newscast yesterday
I know it's rather unimportant, especially within the thread's context, but I want to stress out that this is not a CG set. This approx. 20 Million Euro expensive baby is the finest news studio I've ever seen. Pumped with great tech and good ideas.
That's pretty reassuring, thanks.

I'm glad you don't know what true suffering is, and I actually hope for your sake that nothing will force you to change your view on this. What you say is pretty hurtful to people who do understand this however. Please keep that in mind.
