WHY DO YOU FOLLOW PEOPLE YOU DON’T LIKE? SAVE YOUR PETTY CHEAP COMMENTS FOR YOURSELF!!!

I must say that I am probably a bit past livid right now and my angst level could be very high as I sit behind this screen and write.  However that is why I love having this special page on my site.  This is where I can let it all hang out!! Now first and foremost let me state for the record that I do a lot of the social media.  I may do some social media that you may not have heard of.  And that is okay, but being an artist and also a business owner and entrepreneur I reach for as many ways as I possibly can to get ME, my brand out there!  I truly do!  But it is also with great disdain that I am compelled to write today for the haters, dimwits, dummies and the pure silly wabbits that place themselves on the seat of self-righteousness!

I may not agree with a lot of pictures, tweets, comments on Facebook and so forth and so on.  However it strikes me and behooves me that a person(s) would “follow” a person they DO NOT know but how they are compelled to do so because of WHO THEY are.  So of course Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and many other apps and social media plug-ins give us a glimpse into a celebrity or stars life. Which a lot of us love.  Some of us get that feeling that we are close to them and they have things in common with us.  Though many celebs, singers, rappers, actors cannot get back to all of us. However it does feel good when a celeb “re-tweets” our status or responds to a comment we made.  Oh how we shine and smile and will call our friends and express the love and admiration we felt when this did happen. 

Let me also state for the record that I do “follow” some celebs, celebrity hair stylist, actors, singers etc., etc., and why do I do this?  Well because I am in the entertainment business.  Because of the business that I do run and own that is in part promotions, marketing and advertising.  I really enjoy “following” some celebs, promoters and DJ’s because therefore I am given VIP to a lot of events they promote and will be attending.  So if I am in the city that the celeb, promoter or DJ is at.  I am sure to get on the guest list and attend just so that I can network.  Far from star struck like a lot of people. I know that industry lookey –loos will be there and a plethora of movers and shakers behind the scenes.  Yes, I “follow” some celebs and others to get a glimpse inside where they are, and what they are doing.  So now that I have gotten that out of the way, let me get into to the rooter and the tooter of this blog!

As I go on to my Instagram and I look at a pic of a pretty young lady.  Who I will say has kicked up a lot of dirt and doesn’t have a great rep only because she allowed cameras in her life to be shown over the world. I will say she is quite the character and she does act out on the show.  I read allllll the many negative comments and harsh words that were thrown at her!  Why?!  Because you feel that there is no other way to tell her how you feel? OK, let me say this.  There are many people I see on a daily and talk to on a daily and I do not feel the need to speak up and say,”I don’t like how you are acting!”  Neither do I say, “I do not like what you are wearing!” Oh and neither do I shout out nasty antidotes of crassness!  Nope!  We alllll see many things that we all would like to say something to.  We know of our family, friends, co-workers that are cheating and doing foul things.  Do we find the need to express those opinions on social media?  Well let me say that some who are messy and unattractive will do so.  However as a rule I was taught that you stay out of other people’s business!  Meaning that if you see something that you don’t like such as cheating.  You DO NOT get in the middle of that.  Now if you are a very close family member or very close friend and YOU feel the need to step in and say something.  Of course it is your choice to do so and I would say if you feel comfy doing so then do so.  But all these haters and dislikers that “follow” people they don’t like just to throw stones and say hateful antidotes to that person is WRONG!  Look I see pics, sentences, paragraphs and much more of these people.  Some not even celebs!  But let me also state for the record.  I say nothing under their pic; I don’t feel the need to tweet, fuss, and throw darts of hatred.  You are doing you and doing what makes you happy!  But let me also state, DO NOT follow me if you DO NOT like what I post on any of my websites or social media just to bring me down!  Come on!  Don’t follow me if you don’t like me!  What is the point in all of that?!

I am personally notorious for “unfollowing” people on any of my social media.  Also ‘unfriending” people as well on my social media profiles.  I tired of some of the postings I witness.  For me I do not want to see the constant profane language.  Someone throwing SHADE at a “friend” that they know will check what was recently posted because the both of them follow each other.  Or the infamous tagging one can do when they post something.  Which you can do on majority of the social media outlets.  For me the constant venting, ranting and raving.  The hateful words, the negativity, the random bitterness of who they are and what they do and where they go.  Of course everyone has freedom of speech!  Oh yes of course we all do and that it was I love about what I do! However I do not prescribe to the endless negativity and neither do I want to be flooded with porn pics of women and men constantly.  For those who are into this, I say enjoy and do you to the fullest!  But this is about me and how I feel! I do not want to be tagged in any BS on any social media!  Keep me out of it!  If I am following someone that may post something I do not like or a pic that is not what I feel attractive.  I am not going to slam the person by being crass or rude.  Some people I “follow” are seriously off the chain!  I expect them to post what they do.  However if it gets to be too much then I do what I do and “unfollow”  

I get a bit peeved and perturbed at the mudslinging because I have actually gone on some of these people’s personal profile and can instantly tell they are far from angels and have the audacity to speak they way that they do!  I say get a life!  I say get your life right and focus on what you need to do and get right in your life! I say stop taking the time out of your life and trying to be PC and you are not!

Listen I am not saying that we are not all judgmental because we alllll are!  We see and hear things that we disagree with all the time!  We all have our own opinions.  Truth be told I have my opinions of a lot of things I see and hear and don’t agree with.  However this is how I look at it.  We all in this world have a say in what we feel.  However to follow people and discredit them over and over and over to humiliate them is not acceptable!  If you do not like a bully then you stay away from bullies!  If you don’t like children then you don’t come or go around and even hang around people who have children.  Makes perfect sense to me!  Listen I have a few people in my life that do things that I do not indulge in.  I say birds of a feather flock together.  Some do and some don’t.  However is it really important for us all to have something harshly negative of individuals we do not like and then want to be cruel and self righteous?  Come on people.  The ironic thing is…when I go onto Instagram, Twitter and other social medias.  One person will make a crass comment and then a person that sees it will say just what I am writing about. “Why are you following if you don’t like her?”  So many people complained when Bush Jr. was re-elected for a second term.   When the people who put him back in office that had children in the armed services and they were dying overseas!  Ohhhh now it was a problem!  Now you wanted to protest and act an azz and get plain ole indignant!  Noooooo you followed him, you wanted him in office.  You believed him.  But now that sons and daughters were being captured, killed and coming home mentally and physically beaten.  Many protestors came out of the woodworks! But you all knew the first four years in office what he was all about yet you continued to support the man!

So here is my beef, you know who they are and what they represent when you started following.  You had an opportunity to see all sorts of postings.  You viewed the pics, how they talked, and the way this person presented themselves in the media.  What was going to change?  Were they going to just change for you over night because you left a nasty word on their profile?  Maybe they relish in you giving them the attention that you do.  Maybe they like all the negative things that are said and scoff and laugh at you while they laugh going to the bank.  I have encountered a few haters in what I do.  But guess what I am not as famous as the ones they all “follow” and love to follow because they are all nosey as hell!

But I love those who follow me!  Hahaha!  Yeap I do! Keep following me!  If you don’t like following me then stop!  Because I am me and will stay me and continue to be me and do me in all my glory.  I can say this once my fame does spread and I do become Americas most wanted and others get nosey.  There will more than likely be some that will have something harsh to say.  I am so sure!  But until that miraculous meticulous majestical magical moment occurs!  Stop all that unnecessary hating! Also for the record I do not have an issue with bloggers that have gossip sites and report the negative and positive of celebs lives. This is how they make their living, this is what they want to do. Get your coins! Get your money. Freedom of speech, it seems so oxymoron in some cases. However, it is just like the news which is a huge social media outlet and has been one for years before we got to the age we are in now. But my rant is onan entire other level. It is easy to sit behind a keyboard, a phone or a screen of some sort and cast jusdgement and on others that you KNOW you don't like and disagree with their lifestyle! If you do NOT like a certain TV show or that is on, wht do you do? TURN THE CHANNEL! Catch my drift?
