How to deal with hate on Social Media
The writing Chronicles
I’ve been creating on Social Media for over 2 years now (X)
And obviously I received a little bit of hate.
The first time it happened…
I was stun locked.
Not understanding why
as I believed I didn’t do anything.
(I didn’t)
But you learn very quickly
That the internet can get very angry
EVERYONE has their own subjective opinions
That’s just a fact as a creator/consumer.
The second time it happened I was in aw
Still not really getting why?
But the third time?
Yeah I just brushed it off and laughed.
At that point a build a small name for me on X
And realized people are just envious on insecure…
But some of them just straight up stupid.
But amongst all that hate there is also love.
And I get 50x more love that I do hate.
Or At least I believe so.
Why?
Because it’s the only comments I will ever read.
Just like who you stand by (network-Network)
What you consume creates your character.
So the best thing to do
is simply ignore it.
But I’m not gonna lie.
Time to time I enjoy trolling.
But only if they say something objectively wrong.
So why?
Why react to such comment?
Two reason:
1: Protect your reputation
2: Grow thicker skin yourself.
FIRST: If someone is calling you a M*rder*r straight up
Then you’ll want to clean that up to protect your reputation
And even worse if a person with a bigger reputation does it,
But to keep these kind of conversations in the back end though
Not in the public eye
SECOND: If you want to fight your way out of hate..
You will need to grow thicker skin because-
Even if you cure cancer.. people will STILL hate you
Yeah it’s fkn crazy I Know.
And hate can really get to people.
So I like to sprinkle in a bit of trolling.
Why?
Because it’s Fkin funny bro.
Like you know when you’re board and you wanna be challenged?
Yeah shits fun.
BUT I would only do this if you know your mind can handle it.
Theses haters often try to get a reaction out of you.
Which could ruin your reputation.
So in short:
Best to avoid hate.
And make sure to surround yourself with supporters.
Because it is those people who really count.
Those haters are low life broke ah mfs anyway.
So stay hard Everyone
