auto-mourn

The automatic, often insincere, 'mourning' on the Internet which begins immediately after a celebrity, politician or other noteworthy person expires or is diagnosed with a serious medical condition.

Learning of John McCain's diagnosis of brain cancer, people on Face book went into the auto-mourn mode.

Automorn 

When a celebrity or otherwise publicly known person dies and all the bitches take to Facebook/Social Media to act as though they're upset and it's so devastating when in reality by the next week nobody remembers and they really didn't give two shits anyway but feel it's socially required to post to social media.

Oh no Bobby Sue, Anthony Bordain died, my life will now be incomplete from here to eternity so I'm gonna have to automorn him and express my grieving to all my friends...

Hey Ron, did you hear David Bowie died? No way, how can I ever go on living, it's devastating.
