Bollywood Celebs Quit Social Media Citing Toxicity

Bollywood Celebs Quit Social Media Citing Toxicity

via https://youtu.be/uuvAWnKu-g8 Twitter was quite abuzz on Saturday with as many as five actors deactivating their accounts citing negativity, reported Hindustan Times. It all started when Kriti Sanon lashed out at social media toxicity in Sneha Ullal's recent post after the shocking death of her Raabta co-star Sushant Singh Rajput. Social media is the fakest, most toxic place. If you haven’t posted RIP or said something publicly, you’re accused for not grieving. It seems social media is the new real world and real world has become fake. Filmmaker Karan Johar, who’s being massively trolled for promoting nepotistic after Rajput’s death, un-followed everyone on Twitter, except eight handles (four of which are of his production house). The double-edged sword I’ve stayed away from social media because there’s a lot of negativity, and trolling, which I don’t buy. It has empowered a lot of useless people with an opinion, without any repercussions. Also, they do it all anonymously. A place where if they comment or post, or don’t, nasty feedback are bound to come their way. Social media is toxic, no two ways about it. Sometimes, you get rattled mercilessly, even a spelling mistake can get one trolled. Pressure to post Experts also point out that once a person is on social media, s/he is expected to post on whatever is happening around. Pakistan Ka Showbiz
