Trolling Needs To Stop

Before learning about it in school, I did not think of trolling as a negative action. I never really took the time to learn or understand the true definition of trolling. It seems that technology has brought many negative contributions to the world of media. There are a good amount of people online who are viewed as trolls who are not necessarily concerned with the feelings of others. Whether it is someone you may be close to or a complete stranger, people online like to find a target and take their shot. What causes a troll to bring all of this negative energy to the online community? I feel that it may be that the troll has some insecurities on their own so much to the point where they find themselves so unhappy that they want to spread unhappiness to others who they may feel deserve to be unhappy. What makes a person want to terrorize someone to the point where that person goes into a deep depression? Some trolls do not know the feeling when a bunch of notifications show up on your phone with negative comments. Some do not even know how it feels when your account is hacked with someone acting as if they are you. What about trolls who do know? These are the trolls who want people to feel the same pain they felt when they were once the victims of trolling on the internet. Why would one have the audacity to put someone through the same pain? In all honesty, we need to come together as the human race and continue to treat each other better. The internet has a strong influence on today’s society and we need to start making the web safer and welcoming to use.
