I agree. If you are secure with yourself, you don't need to tell people you don't like them, nor do you need to tell others what you think about anyone else. Speaking to people directly and privately is best. If they aren't in your circle and don't touch your life, aren't your reasons for disliking them actually about you? What does your opinion about them reflect about you?

So true Katrina! I completely agree. I just don’t understand why people get so annoyed by people who they’ve probably never met.

Yes yes I agree. There is a reason I left social media years ago before everything was blowing up. I really give props to celebrities these days. They have to put their whole life out there like a piece of raw meat and they can’t please everyone it’s beyond me. People are great on a face to face level. They will never say what they just posted on a thread. Having to express your thoughts without consequences is so liberating these days that people forget how to have manners. I remember going down that little rabbit hole myself and I found myself saying things to strangers online that I would not say to their face and I’m one of the most blunt people I know to your face. I only have YouTube and I hardly ever look at comments because you can easily go down that hole. If I would have seen that comment on lying about your age I would have reacted not too kindly. I just don’t know why we just love breaking each other apart. If you don’t have anything nice to say then don’t say it at all. I have seen some videos that I don’t like or just that I didn’t enjoy but I never insult the creative who made it. I just don’t watch anymore. Problem solved. Everyone has something to say even when they don’t. Who knew.

Isn’t it crazy that you probably come across people who actually ‘troll’ people online but you’d never know it face to face?!

All the time. It’s so sad.

I’m confused. Just because someone is a woman doesn’t mean you have to like them? I support many women, and I dislike Meghan.

You’re right - no one said you have to like every woman. My newsletter wasn’t about forcing people to be BFFs with women they dislike. It’s about the strange obsession with publicly ridiculing women they don’t even know. Dislike Meghan all you want...that’s your prerogative - but why the need to post about it, tear her down, or make assumptions based on media gossip? It’s fascinating how some people can’t seem to resist turning their dislike into a public spectacle. Maybe the energy could be better spent elsewhere? Just a thought.
