Criticism and hates speech...

The news of Elon musk taking over Twitter is by now known to everyone. From what I read, the deal hasn’t been finalized and in the wake of so many controversies going on, Twitter might not be worth what he is offering. It is said that about 5% of twitter accounts are run by bots, contrary to this about 20% are bots.

It’s a common thing to see offensive comments on tweets. A typical example is the massive attack on Bitcoincash promoting tweets by the Marxist. Sometimes I wonder how people sit to type the numerous horrible things but I think the use of bots is a better explanation.

Another issue going on is the “Basic right” - Freedom of speech. Is there truly something like that. Twitter censorship and control have helped in reducing the trolls a lot. I sometimes pity the celebrities that are subjected to criticism and abuse daily. People say so many horrible things not minding the effect on others. I indulge in football bants too but I’m always careful not to cross the line.

To see various leaked videos by different people working at Twitter, just search #TwitterExposed on Twitter. These videos will most likely be taken down in the coming days. Says much for the freedom of speech they are preaching.

These celebrities are also human, they have no bulletproof for abuse. Let’s say their accounts are managed by professionals and they don’t see most of these hates thrown at them. What about the common man? So many people care so much about what the public will say. The fear of what people will say, what Social media will say, how many likes will I get is stopping people from going for what they want.

Public opinion is usually negative. The public likes to criticize, self-righteously feeling their opinion is correct. For example, when a wealthy or famous person makes a mistake, the public takes pleasure in criticizing them. If you base your life on what people think or say about you, then you will live a life filled with sorrow. The only opinion that matters is how you feel about yourself, not what others have to say.

I am not saying that there is no such thing as "good" public opinion, but oftentimes they are just a couple of people with a lot of friends making a big deal out of nothing with their never-ending comments and criticism, ready to throw a punch at the barest provocation.

We aren't all born equal, talent isn't handed out equally. Some are born with it, others have to chase it down and fight tooth and nail to claim it as their own. Some people were born a certain way others have to work for the same results. We can choose to sit on the sidelines, comfortable with our failures, afraid of what people will say or we can get up and fight for what we believe. When you choose the latter you are taking a chance, an extraordinary chance at success. When you choose the former, you're choosing mediocrity.

Not everyone is motivated to succeed, not everyone dreams of being great, and not everyone is willing to work hard to achieve their dream.

Life is short, live your own life and do what makes you happy. People are always criticizing and judging but in the end, it's their life. They will only make you miserable in your own if you allow their opinion to affect your life. The hate speech and trolls will always be there. No matter how good you are, no matter how nice you are, people will always have something negative to say about you. Instead of being scared of the faceless cowards hiding behind the keyboard, stand up and take a step towards actualizing your dream.

When the trolls clap at you, instead of clapping back., let your success clap back at them. And if you’re also one of the cyberbullies, it will be nice if you stop now.
