As a young individual and influencer, ivchas knows that hateful speech cuts wounds so deep that they often never heal. Those words haunt us until they own us. And even though we know they ain’t true, when repeated over time, they become our reality.
You are who you are, and you are beautiful! ⭐ And words are only words unless you give them a meaning. Remember this!
👉 This is what ivchas shares with us today:
"Online bullying or cyberbullying is one of the biggest issues that we face in the era of the Internet. Many people have been victims of online bullying, especially in their teenage years. Harmful bullying behaviour can include posting rumours, threats, sexual remarks, a victim’s personal information, or insulting labels. As much as putting someone down and making fun of them might look cool or funny in someone’s eyes, it is also really dangerous. Victims of cyberbullying may experience lower self-esteem, increased suicidal ideation and a variety of negative emotional responses including being scared, frustrated, angry or depressed.
It’s very important for all of us to always take action when we witness such behaviour on the Internet and in public. Not only we should always protect the weaker members of our society but we should also fight against any type of hateful and aggressive behaviour. I would personally advise all of us with children, or younger siblings at home to take a minute or five to talk about this important topic and to prepare and advise the youngest among us on how to handle cyberbullying and how to protect themselves."
So don’t let other people’s insecurities make you insecure. And protect those who cannot protect themselves.
We as a society can make online bullying a thing of the past, but only if we work together! Thank you, ivchas, for being part of our fight! 💖
