thoughts on Cyberbully (movie)

so abc family came up with this movie and aired it a couple days ago. i saw the trailer for it and i became interested in it, so i decided to watch it. just finished it a couple minutes ago.

Cyber-bullying is “the use of information and communication technologies to support deliberate, repeated, and hostile behavior by an individual or group, that is intended to harm others”.

so many thoughts going on in my head, thought to myself, “hey, maybe i should write this down?” lol. so here it goes.

*btw, i didnt bother with the grammar and spelling stuff. so bear with me.

i dont wanna give out spoilers so this will just be very vague. but you seriously have to watch it for yourself because my words will not do it justice.

i dont even know where to begin.

at first i thought the movie came on too strong. like, they make it seem so bad. they took it to the extreme and pushed it as far as they could. but in the end, it was super effective.

when you think about it more, the stuff on this movie, it’s happening. it happens in real life. it’s not just a made up story. and i know it might seem a little bit extreme.  but this is real. people are getting hurt, people are actually thinking of killing themselves, and some people have. i can’t even imagine what they’re feeling and what they’re going through.

the movie was really intense, but it got to you. or at least it got to me. at first i laughed at how ridiculous it was because they took it a bit overboard but then i realized that this stuff do happen. it was a serious matter. and i actually found myself crying at some parts.

in the end, i felt so overwhelmed.

i thought about how wrong this is. and i thought of spreading the word. it’s not much but it’s what i’m capable of doing right now.

but then i thought how there’s soo many many other things that are going on in the world that are soo wrong and messed up.

suddenly i felt like i had to do something about everything.

it’s kinda funny. call it being inspired, or being crazy. but this movie sparked something inside me.

i was FURIOUS. the world is soooo messed up, and we all have our own little problems and our own lives to deal with, then all these messed up things are happening. human kind can be so ridiculous sometimes. i feel super overwhelmed right now. i’m not even talking bout the movie anymore. but that movie was what inspired me to write about something, my feelings, my frustrations. i just had to let it out.

*siiiiiighhhhh*

if you’ve read this far.. you, my friend, are awesome. lol.

so what did i learn from this movie? that you shouldn’t believe everything you read online. and that you should NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER say bad things about a person or say bad thing TO a person online. it’s just mean. and gosh, why would you even spend time and energy and effort into something like that?! have you no life?!? like. c’mon. there’s gotta be something better you can do that be mean to someone? jeeez.

sometimes, i reaaaalllyy hate how flawed human beings are.
