HATERS ARE OUR MOTIVATORS

The fact of the matter is, is that trolls don't seek attention, they seek silence, silence in all of their victims. Trolls want to shut down all of the diverse voices on the internet so that theirs is the only one that's heard. They choose to waste valuable minutes of their life, eating at people's self-esteem and self-worth. They have nothing better to do than spew distasteful things at those they are envious of, that is why we must not give them the fire that they want. They want us to respond to their hurtful words. They want us to react as if we are bothered by what they say. They want us to feel just as disgusted as they are with their own selves. We are the ones who ultimately get to choose whether we want to spend our time writing a paragraph scolding them or ignoring them. It's doubtful that they will change, and even if they do, there will always be other trolls preying on their next target because people are haters. Don't stoop to their level of hatred and bitterness, just be the better person and move on. Trolls don't deserve our time and energy because they are irrelevant and we have more important things to worry about. Just remember that they are the ones without a life, who coward behind a screen day to day, while the rest of us are continuing to grow into better, more mature people. They are stuck in pool of tar, and we are progressively evolving. HATERS ARE OUR MOTIVATORS.

  1. But what if they are empty souls trying to fill it with hate, when they really need a wake up call. I don't really believe in not trying to resolve it and ignore it method because it doesn't help us al all. How are ever going to be the better person if we ignore people who clearly need help. where not helping society if we ignore each other. It doesn't erase all the hate email, it doesn't stop the threats. I'm believing that your the type of person who hasn't been bullied, harassed, raped, or abused. And that's good I'm not saying that's bad, but people having a higher chance of not knowing the pain it causes when they've never experienced it. in some cases, it is true that some trolls are just senseless animals waiting for prey. But there are those who do it without a reason. I know where not there mommy to scold them, but in Lindy West's case, she couldn't take it. All her co-workers told her not "to feed the trolls" but she didn't feel like that would ever help. so she decide to tell her troll out and the outcome was positive. Instead of ignoring them and "not feeding them", we should instead think outside the box and realize that everyone can be changed. no matter how unrealistic that sounds we can HELP these trolls so we can stop the hate. I know your title say HATERS ARE OUT MOTIVIAIORS but you misconstrued it through out your blog post. haters aren't our motivators if we just ignore them and let them kill each other. how are they going to motivate us if the majority don't feel that way? we shouldn't say these things if where not going to be helped by it, we should instead help the haters not be haters. But I guess that's just my opinion and that you must take it that way.

    1. I think what Jasmine means when she says they’re our motivators is that by having people hate on you it means that what you say actually affected someone, that your voice is actually being heard. Someone is disagreeing with it but at least someone has heard you and that can give you the motivation to keep doing what you are doing because you know more people will listen.
      I actually do agree that by ignoring in a way you can live more freely. I know it’s sad how that is true but this is the world we live in; some people cannot be helped no matter how hard we try. We can give someone all our time and attention to try to make them a better person but if they’re happy with the way they’re living it’s almost impossible to change their state of mind. Additionally, if we want to help others, we have to help ourselves first; no one goes to a mentally unstable person for advice.
      The best thing we could do to our haters is to show them what they hate most, our happiness. We could devote our lives to change a person’s opinion of you, or we could just try to enjoy the years we have left on this earth. No hate, just love.

  2. I totally agree with you jasmine I think your words are so wise. Trolls do want us to react like as if we are bothered by what they say. Trollers are nothing but full of negativity and trolling needs to come to an end!!

  4. I definitely agree with you Jasmine. I do believe that trolls are cowards that have nothing else better to do with their lives. We should not give them any attention because they don't deserve it. We shouldn't waste our precious time and energy feeding them exactly what they want. I do agree that we should move on and not be bothered by it because words from those who doesn't matter to us shouldn't matter to us as well. Your words are truly inspiring. Please keep up the good job Jasmine and thank you !
