Welcome to another blog post!

Here is where I talk about something serious, should be serious

Anyways, lets begin!

I feel like people dismiss the fact that cyberbullying can go a long way. Words hurt, it's stronger than any physical bullying. People commit suicide because of cyberbullying and it's ways. People who cyberbully don't see that they are harming someone. Because talking online is so  one sided. You may think that the person you are talking to can be a blondie but is actually a brunette. Their character, avatar, pfp is a boy but they are actually a girl. Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, etc. People may look or seem as they portray themselves, but simple editing, photo cropping, and even word changing can change the whole scenario. They may talk with outgoing words, being funny, and being all talkative. But in the real world they are shy, socially awkward etc. I had people I know or related to would look at a picture of someone online and start saying how cringey, weird, ugly, overweight they look. Right to my face! It is because they know that the person they are talking about will never hear what they are saying. If you have the ability to disgustingly say these things about someone to another soul. You have the abilty to harm, hurt, or ruin someones life. It seems like nothing to some people. I kid you not, there are people who do not at all care. If you think that it's fine if someone died because of cyberbullying and or bullying. Then you are selfish, greedy, a "psycopath" for all I care. Yeah, harsh words. If you are not concerned. If you are not concerned that someone lost their life because of bullying and cyberbullying. Then what are you concerned about? What if that person you were putting down liked to be a little overweight. You like putting innocent people down with your lame comments. Why bother them? Sometimes people don't know they are hurting someone with their words because they may think it's just a simple joke. Granted, it might be a simple statement that anyone would laugh at and it wouldn't be harmful. But we are all different. If it could be harmful in any way and the victim tells you that they don't like it. Then stop, if you mean no harm then stop. Yes, people may say, "Your a sissy!" Or "Stop being so dramatic". Those people are ignorant and you shouldn't tolerate their existence, most of the time. If you said something that might have hurt someones feelings then tell them, "Was what I said okay?" or "Is it okay for me to say that?" Even if it is the silliest things. It still shows the person you care. If you truly hurt them and you never even asked, they will think you meant those things, and they might start believing it. A lot of people are scared to say that they don't like what the bully is saying, because they think that  the bully will make ruder comments and bother them even more. That might as well happen, if you are a true bully. People bully because they think their ''cool. ''Yeah your friend group might think so, but the whole world would think a different way. It is relieving to see that there are nice people out there and that we did not lose hope, yet.

THAT WAS LONG :D Hope this was.....interesting? I don't know. Tell meh your thoughts!
