Social Media Commenters



Hi all,

Been a minute, decide to stop the apologies, excuses and promises this year. So if you see here, very good,  you're most welcome to share my thoughts with you.

Recently, I've realized that a lot people are so fearful and insecure. I observed most especially with the social media buzz of freedom, how people are so quick to judge and bring people down. My Bible says, "the power of life and death is in the tongue" and it also says, "as a man thinks in his heart so is he". So, safe to say there is power in our mind and what we say with our mouth.

Scrolling through any of my social media page and i come across some very hateful, down-casting and judgmental comments on people's posts and I'm like, "why  so much hatred?!", and some other times i come across some seemingly "love hate" comments. And I'm wondering where are all these coming from. Its either they hate and are quick to judge or they throw "shady Love" that are not real in anyway. All the above mentioned are derailing in so many negative ways;
1. Its either the person being commented about suddenly gets a fame beget by lies
2. The person being commented about gets discouraged, fearful or even loose drive
3. Even the "commenter" looses a real sense of "self" and true individual identity.

Social media should not be a hate haven or a mask to bring people down under the guise of "freedom of speech or expression". I honestly find it difficult to make comments on some posts on social media cos I wouldn't want to be part of the "hate commenters gang" (*in @iamkanmi voice, check him out on IG he's hilarious). The world is full of so many coax on its own, lets not add hate or fake love to it. And remember also no matter how good or bad, you get whatever you give *please ensure its good.

If you need to make any comment, share with a simple open mind and not with the intention to bring anyone down.
Don't intend to say so much today, just thought i drop this here after all these while.
Till a next Time
