"We'll never make the same mistakes as them..."

Nothing much to say today but something really caught my eye and then I just...yeah. So basically, this 14 year old girl committed suicide after receiving hate on her ask.fm and her parents are really enraged about this whole idea of ask.fm and they urge parents to never let their kids be exposed to things like that. Hmm.

I think this whole thing about ask.fm is that it's just a fad. It's like a platform for people to ask questions anonymously and that's the whole idea: anonymity. It's supposed to be "fun" I guess, and since no one knows who's asking the questions and stuff like that. But then when people bring it to a whole new level and start spreading hate and then the whole system just screws up. 

I'm sure the creators of this thing never did plan for stuff like that to happen but this entire thing about spreading hate is a problem itself and I don't see it being solved any time soon especially when we live in a society like this. There's this thin line between keeping it to yourself, expressing it, and SPREADING it. Oh c'mon, there definitely will be this certain person who gets on your nerves or whom you utterly cannot stand the sight of. And then you rant to your friends and stuff like that. But then it stops at your friends and unless it goes around, the person never really knows I guess. Nowadays, people are going a step further and actually informing the people they hate about why they're being hated and I think I shall sum it up with one word: despicable.

Who likes waking up every morning feeling hated and useless and unworthy? I know it sucks and I hate that feeling but at least I don't get told in my face constantly that I suck or anything. I've seen accounts of people and the things people say are ridiculous. Saying that someone is stupid doesn't make you smarter; saying that someone is ugly doesn't make you more beautiful (in fact I think you're the ugly one); saying that someone is fake doesn't make you any more real. 

And here comes the irony of anonymity. I guess it's an extreme case kind of thing. To receive compliments from a complete stranger or someone anonymously definitely makes someone happy (: Like, who doesn't want to be complimented? But then people think that because there is this phone/computer screen hiding their identity, they can use such platforms to slander and talk shit about people? Really? How old are you? Are you like, three? (Not insulting anyone who is really three and reading this btw) When you're going to complain to the world instead of your mum about someone who did something you didn't really like? I think some people really need a wakeup call that NOBODY CARES WHAT YOU THINK. Really. Who cares if you think someone is fake? Just because you say it, is it going to make the other person turn her life around 180 degrees just to please you? Hell no.

Get a life. If you really had the balls to post something like that, then have the balls to man up and own up and tell the person in their face. If you have no balls then shut the hell up and live your own life. Please perfect your life first before deciding to comment on someone else's. And what are you doing with your life? Don't you have better things to do? Go study or something, instead of camping at your phone and waiting to see if the person replies your hate or not -.-

I'm not a saint and I think I rant about people a lot. But the only time I did post something anonymously on someone's ask.fm was to tell her that she's beautiful and that even though she's going through something tough, she should carry on and stay strong. Some people here are really great. They're nice people and they don't deserve all these comments. I hate to see people crumble and feel upset and wonder if setting up an account was a bad idea in the first place.

Nevertheless, please, take it that I'm begging you, don't be so stupid to go around doing things that obviously make people dislike it. That's like inviting all the wolves and foxes and tigers and lions to eat yourself up. And that's very very stupid.

I was going to comment about the waste of young lives because that girl's only 14 and why was she so foolish. Then I realise that I can't blame her because the fact that she thought that suicide was the only way out is just devastating. How? Why? She's only 14 for God's sake and she's been pushed to take her own life? What is this world even thinking? She's never going to get married and have kids and see her children grow up, and she's never going to study anymore and get into a good school and have a bright future. All these are robbed from her because people urged her to take her life? What is wrong with this world.

Staying angry isn't a good feeling. Having hate dominate your words, actions and your lives isn't anywhere better. It's okay to hate someone, but it isn't okay to make someone feel hated. This isn't the kind of world I want to live in. 

Yepppp, that's all.

xoxo,

me.
