    Daily Fail or Stormfront

    Upvoted comments on Mail Online versus posts on neo-Nazi message board Stormfront.

    Can you tell which is which?

    You scored 10/10!

    You're brilliant at telling the difference between Daily Mail comments and Stormfront comments. Awkward.
    hmmm...

        8/10 - Generally the more racist, sexist and bigoted comments are from the DM. I kind of realised that after getting the first couple wrong.

          Poor efforts; I got 10 by looking at the grammar. The content of both was equally revolting, but the Stormfront reactions were grammatically better. I find that a bit disturbing.

            8 out of 10. Despite what the site tries to imply, it's generally quite easy to tell the comments apart. Those StormFront comments have a malevolence and often a conspiratorial weirdness beyond anything you'd be likely to see in the Daily Mail or Sun etc.

            I bet a similar competition could be produced comparing Guardian or New Statesman comments with some hard left Stalinist forum.

              You mean StormFront views are more of a doctrine rather than just an ill thought out comment.

                Got 5/10.

                Stormfront seems less extreme in their views...

                    Tricky test - all answers COULD have been on Daily Mail.

                    Somebody needs to run a test
