In a world of crowd, in a time of change, we still have a lot of backlashes. It comes in many forms but not a lot of people know that it can lead some traumatic effects on young and adult minds.

The rumors are not a big deal, the chats never hurt anyone, the whispers will die down, that's what we think; But still even one word might trigger years of unwanted scars, one word and the long forgotten misery can be turned into an open wound. And when people, strangers even family starts to believe that they can make comments and judgements on someone else's happiness or about things they cannot control then that becomes a problem.
"People need to stop thinking that they have right to tear others down, no matter what the reason is."
The object for the comment can be different, sometimes a good intention can lead to a harsh storm in someone else's mind, the real questions to be asked when commenting or pilling up your opinion on someone are pretty earthed down,
Is it true?
In reality is it actually true?, what you are saying or maybe even thinking, is it really the reality or maybe its the part of the coin you have chosen to see. Is it the only thing you understand or care about them, it that why you are making the comment. Always remember there a lot of more sides and factors exists of someone's life which you might be completely ignoring, so always remember no one ever tells everything; making judgemental opinions on someone just because how they look and behave is downright childish.
Is it Necessary?
So it might be true, but is it really necessary for you to point it out? For you to remind them again? No. Then don't, remember it doesn't really matter if you are a close friend, a stranger, a family member. They didn't ask, No need to tell.
Is it kind?
Even if they asked for you opinion, even if you have something true, valid and necessary to say, but yet unkind is never an option. Everyone has feelings and memories which can be triggered, things that aren't softly said can rewind some harsh memories. Always keep in mind that there is a person across the screen.
But humanity doesn't have the guts, at least not always to say things on the face, now do they? But speaking judgmentally in your circle, for fishing and throwing opinions on someone else's lives, even if you are with a friend is wrong. It is not necessary that the person you are talking about might even hear, they don't have to. Specking ill of someone tells a lot about you not them. A lot of the people out there use the phrase, 'Its just a joke.' Everything is fun and games until you've touched even a fabric of someone's insecurity. There is a thin line between what is a joke and what is disrespect. Negative Comments on physical appearance, sexual orientation, sexual preference, sexual appearance, colour, caste, religion are not just bullying it is also an offence on years of struggle.
"The world is filled with people ready to hide behind the screen. "
Honestly saying, I love that we are in age of Internet, so easily able to find our people who share our thoughts, or maybe just our fandom.
But a study on Online Trolling in UK shows that 31.4% of comments are made as an attack on the user and 24.6% to 30.2% of the other comments are cyber victimisation, which has made it one of the leading causes of suicide in the age group of 16 and 25.
Now all this is really serious matter and one of the many things that are wrong with the world, isn't it kinda ironic that we created internet to meet people and be close but some of us just found another way to pass judgement.
Sure saying something positive or appreciating something is a talent few of us posses, but if we can't say anything good let's not say at all right?
So we are not supposed to point out the wrong?
Well sometimes there are also people who have done the deed and deserve the lash fight. Although it is still irrelevant to talk trash about things they cannot control like their physical appearance, sexual orientation, sexual preference, sexual appearance, colour, or caste. If you want to be the court and pass the judgement, which I still say isn't the right thing, but if you do; do it in the accounts of real proof and real arguments.
