147 People in Kenya have not been murdered this week

I am actually astonished that people keep posting this onto Facebook and saying how terrible it is that no one is talking about it:

147 People in Kenya have not been murdered this week

Maybe it is because you were too lazy/idol/stupid to bother to read the facts that this happened in April and are just off stating things that maybe appeal to how you see the world. Maybe you want to create sensational news or propagate it. So many people have said that the reason it has not been mentioned is because no white people died, maybe it was hardly mention in mainline news is because it was not news this month…shock horror eh.

Just goes to show how a simple algorithmic fuck up at the BBC starts pushing a story to the top of the most read articles and then the story gets reinforced.

The reality  is the reason why the Paris murders are all over the news is because it is rare for this thing to happen, especially in a Westernised city that so many Europeans or Americans  know and probably have been too. Most Europeans or Americans have never been to Kenya, Syria. Egypt, Yemen etc and sadly atrocities of these kind are more common place nowadays in these countries….hence the headlines are no longer headlines….sad but true.

Note that when the murders happened in Mumbai and few white people were murdered, the story was headline news around the world. Because in India there are few mass murders.
