The virtual world became a platform where people expose their frustrations. If you post something positive, you will not get reaction. Ignorance is mostly present when you express your happiness. If you post something that irritates people, you will get negative reactions.
Many young users use internet to write negative comments, put dislikes and troll others. We are witnesses to young generation who is angry, passive and without a purpose.
You Tube opted out dislikes for public. You can see in your private statistic a number of dislikes.
Some people have a bad humor and don't have a clue how their reaction can hurt others.
You will tell me this is a freedom of speech and free choice, but also as an owner of my profiles in social media I have right to restrict negative comments.
I am against censoring and dictatorship and every critic is welcome, but I don't tolerate rude and abusive behavior.
Besides, if someone leave a negative, rude comment, that gives an ugly example to others to do the same.
I bet many of you faced with negative reactions or rude behavior, so how to react to this?
Ignore. The first step is ignore and delete, to give a hint to person who posted it.
Block. Use block option if a person repeat it.
Report. If this is exaggerating behavior, report it. Nobody has a right to abuse you.
Spread a word about an abuser. Your virtual friends have a right to know who is a bad example.
Continue to post your stuff, show your power and strong attitude. Your haters should not know they upset you.
Celebrate your victories. If you had many visits, awards, or book sales, if your stuff is well noticed, celebrate it public.
Understand that every hater is an unhappy person. If you waste your time to spread your hate or frustration in the virtual world, that is a proof of your misery.
