I definitely agree that this was a very informational video about cyber bullying. Being able to verbally identify the pros and cons of cyber bullying can help to identify issues we face with social media and also helps create a pathway for corrections to be made to fight against cyber bullying. Cyber bullying can lead to so many negative actions taking place in a persons life and being able to reduce the percentage of cyber bullying that’s happening could help make social media a better place considering that it has become a huge part of this generations way of communicating, living, and providing ways to experience life in a healthy and positive manner

[@madelinetate8163]

I feel like this video helps a lot of us realize how we are communicating online. Sometimes we get too comfortable being online and saying what we want. We have to remember there are consequences to something we say on the internet. We also can't read body language online so this video reminds us to be aware of these very important things.

I think that this is a very important topic since most of our children's lives are centered around social media. I know that kids can be so mean in person so it must be even worse with the so called sheild of a phone screen or the distance between the person they are bullying. And I know from personal experience how much word really can have an effect on the quality of someone's view of themselves. Words can lift you up or they can break you down.

[@amandawalker6279]

I think that the phones and video games and computers ect.... were took away maybe just maybe some of the violence and bullying would drop. Because thats where the kids get it is all the crime in video games and the internet. They only go by what they see and what kind of environment they are around and live in.

[@kimberlylopez5387]

yes I do agree as well. In our generation, kids are surrounded by social media for example we now have tiktok. Its easy for people send hate over the screen without facing any consequences.

[@iletad52]

This site should be in school classrooms to see how they look with being so rude to people who there to learn and not be bullied. The education in school is not focus on the importance of learning .It's all about fashion ,popular ,and not books. So now to have social media and computers a lot gets said and now you have or get the threats of people you don't know. Because it's a lot of info about all types of attitudes and gestures you can learn some very harmful threats and words to people quicker.

[@AboveTheNoise]

Do you act differently online? Let us know how!

[@AboveTheNoise]

@Justin O'Brien Oh awesome. Good tip for keeping yourself in check. It's so easy to say stuff you might later regret online.

[@adlockhungry304]

I try to ignore the “toxic vitriol” segment of the KZbin comments section, but every once in a while I fall prey to it and respond in kind. Also, sometimes I say things that don’t seem terribly kind on the face of it, but are things I would definitely say in person to a friend or acquaintance in some sort of disagreement. However, the body language and tone of my voice would make clear that I am simply calling you or your idea out in unapologetic but amicable terms in the spirit of healthy discourse. That can be lost when all we have is text on a page. Sometimes i recognize this and simply choose not to comment after all. Other times I try to convey the amicable intent via emojis though that sometimes runs the risk of coming across as patronizing. But, eh, whadyagonnado? (Shrug)

[@AboveTheNoise]

@@adlockhungry304 Yep, I think we can all relate to similar experiences like that. Sometimes it's really hard not to feed the trolls too!

[@jim4859]

I always try to be polite and correct in any written communication: Anonymity on the Internet is never guaranteed. Written communication can stay around a surprisingly long time. I try to filter out people who are obviously mean - they generally don't have much useful to say.

[@AboveTheNoise]

Good advice!

[@michaelkrause8753]

I always try and be polite as well. However everywhere you go, either in the real world or online, you will find people who cant help themselves. Its way to easy to sit behind a keyboard and say whatever spills out onto the screen with no real consequences due to the anonymity. Trying to respond to, or otherwise correct these rude and usually overly opinionated people almost always makes the situation worse. Its just better and easier to ignore them and move on with your life. Good luck in all your goals! Lets be good people.

[@elastic9906]

Sometimes you do have to be carful of what you say, you can say one thing and someone will flip out. The best anyone can do is just to be as polite as possible and sometimes you will have to avoid people. some enjoy bringing down others and lot of the time they are not bad people, they usually just have a hard life.

Cyber bullying has steadily been increasing because of the accessibility of social media. People have more access to social media and are able to target people more easily. Whether it's at random or targeted. Along with the constant trends and the new norms alot of people seem to be targeted or due to cultural appropriation or appreciation. I do feel that sometimes on the lower end people may read messages or posts from their inner monologue so it's key to really look for harassing, and bullying cues.

I wonder if part of it is also similar to why people are so mean to other drivers on the road. The documentary by John Cleese called "The Human Face" he talks about how when you can't see the face of the other person it's harder to empathise with them causing people to be meaner to each other. It's why people can effortlessly navigate a crowded space on foot and there's no foot traffic rage, but there is road rage.

[@AboveTheNoise]

Oh so interesting! We'll check out that doc. Thanks for the recommendation.

Cyber bullying is on the rise and just keeps getting worse sadly. It is so sad that this is the world our kids and future kids have to grow up in. The fact parents have to not only worry about their kids being bullied at school but online too is terrible.

[@voiceofreason2691]

As much as this makes totaI sense, I want to say, the *biggest* reason why ppI are getting meaner is because of KZbin comments disappearing too often even for the wrong reasons. You can’t even express your feeIings/emotions anymore, so we have to keep everything inside!😡🤢

[@abriellaguna2320]

I highly agree with the argument. we should most definitely stop every once and a while an thing before we speak because without doing that we can start an online argument based off of emotion.

[@kimberlylopez5387]

Yes I do agree that the internet can make you meaner. As Myles said, most people who bully or say mean full things over the internet would probably never say in person, they feel protected by the screen between them. It is important to think before we hit send because the same way words can build someone up can also tear someone down. It better to choose to support one another and build each other up, there's is enough hate going on around the world so why no spread a little positivity.

With growing online social media presence cyber bullying is at an all time high because people can talk and post negatively things without anyone knowing who they are.

Heh. Back in the early days of the Internet (back when it was still Capitalized), a good flame-war was considered an art form. I once got into a technical disagreement with somebody in England (I was right, BTW) that quickly ascended(?) from doubting qualifications, to negative labeling, to family heritage references, and on to name-calling and personal insults, after which it got silly in the extreme, where we were just trying to amuse the others in the forum. After we came out the other side we found common ground. To the point that he nearly got me a software R&D gig with a Swiss bank! Part of the fun was, indeed, wondering if the other person was serious or trolling, and trying to play both sides at once while avoiding being indecisive or in the middle. Today it seems emojis take the edge off. I think the one emoji we need most is for: "Sorry, not sorry."

[@destanyoestreich5869]

With a growing online social media presence cyberbullying is at an all-time high because it is the top concern for student's safety when using the internet. Cyber-bullying has been one of the main problems for student's using technology, it includes posting or making up rumors, and/or threats, vulgar remarks, somebody's personal information, or any other rude, unacceptable behavior online. It's almost ranked just as bad as regular bullying, with it comes mental health disorders, suicide, and poor self confidence in other students/peers, causing overall problems everywhere they go, (school, library, grocery store,, etc...) We could reduce cyber-bullying by teaching students gratitude amongst one another, and their selves, encourage them to notify a parent/guardian the moment the problem starts, you could also set a good example, "follow the leader", for example. Teach them right from wrong the first time, and correctly, and they will always treat others how they want to be treated, especially with a prime example as yourself!

[@keyannawillis6372]

It definitely can be a safety risk, We need to find better ways to protect everyone. It's scary how far cyberbullying has progressed, our elementary-aged children aren't even safe on the internet anymore.

[@Vallinen92]

I'd like to point out that another reason for increased hostility online; it's a lot easier to misunderstand someone and project a sinister motivation on whomever you're talking to. Someone might be browsing a forum on their 10 minute break at work, type something quickly and press send without realising it's pretty aggressively worded. As a lighthearted example; it's a lot easier to get mad at someone writing "Only idiots like pinapple on pizza" than "I don't like pineapple on pizza".

Honestly you can be a bully without knowing your being a bully. Example posting meme's online some people take them the wrong way and you may hurt Somone's feelings without knowing. I myself have posted these but I add a disclaimer. To help with cyberbullying think before you post same as in person think before you speak.

Little tip: there are things called "tone indicators" that you can use when communicating online to clarify your tone! For example: "I loooooove internet drama. /sar". /sar = sarcastic. So you know they're being sarcastic about loving internet drama. You can easily look up a list of tone tags (that's another name for them) if you're curious.😁 Hope this helps! ❤😄 /lh /gen /info (lighthearted, genuine, information)

People always act different about a point when its not face to face. Been this way thousands of years before the internet. And to think i came here to learn something new.😉💭. Booyah.

[@AboveTheNoise]

Oh good point! Totally forgot about how mean we were with those passenger pigeon messages 😉

[@keyannagunter758]

Cyberbullying is at its all timed of high right now, its really sad how people can take their feelings and hurt and and just bully someone because they're unhappy with themselves.

[@tashawager1446]

I agree

[@meghanhawkins165]

Yes I agree, cyberbullying literally is just a mask for people to show their true colors and their insecurities

[@CaureenHanssen-mu6df]

i agree if you know its not true you shouldnt waste your time anyways

[@kayinbradford8176]

school making me watch this check

[@isabellabaird8034]

And this is why I don't have social media

[@lashawnbush4588]

I believe that cyberbullying is at a all time high because some people are very unhappy with themselves so they choose to make someone else unhappy. Cyber bullying has been on a rise because half of the people that be online now days are new to it, they dont fit in with the crowd that they are online with and they might have a lack of knowledge. Things people post can be interpreted for example I could make a joke on my social media page, not about anyone directly but things that people will do is general and someone can take it the wrong way. For instance I could post a picture of Beyonce' with no hair just for laughs and someone will get offended. to lower the growth of cyberbullying we could help by teaching those with lack of knowledge and stop it by addressing it right when it happens.

Cber cullying is mean i have a nephew how gets bullied at school sometime in the bathroom he comes home and tells me all the the i told him he needs to tell a teacher but he says im scared so he decides to bully back but not the right thing

[@CaureenHanssen-mu6df]

With the online social media presence of cyberbullying is at an all time high because theres all kinds of different people and everyone likes social media because it has everything you like on it. It has been on the rise because social media has been on the rise too. Some things are not real for example someone can look like they have bands but they really just took it out of there account for a photo. I think to help lower the growth rate you can ignore or block people that are not worth your time.

[@KyriaBates-y8k]

Great video, thanks for sharing your stories and I’m glad I watched all the way through to understand more about cyber bullying

[@PrettyTreats]

Exactly. Because it gives the negative and the positive sides of cyber bullying as well you know.

[@tiarawatts3781]

Cyberbullying is at a all time high! People ahould try to be more nice . Anonymity is what most of the cyberbullies use to hide behind fake pages just to make fun and/or hinder people.

[@donalddarnard6760]

I see many emails thru the week, some are not so good. To me this is a challenge, here where I can take a not so good thing and hopefully turn someone's day around. let's make it a good day together.

[@joshuafisher9781]

my school told me to watch this I think no matter what there will be bullying because us the people will never grow up

[@AboveTheNoise]

Thanks for watching the video - even though your teacher made you! What do you think it might take to make someone "grow up"?

[@sharekiagreen8062]

With the growing online social media presence of cyberbullying is at an all-time high because so many people get the right to speak their mind on certain individuals because of who they are their position or popularity, looking at some of my old classmates posts I then realize people can change with their lifestyle or job they have over time, to help lower the growth rate of cyberbullying, we can have a point system for when a person with a negative attitude posts something disrespect it would get review with a star or symbol to let other people know.

[@Rachelkruisenga]

Cyberbullying has grown bigger in last few years. Many people dont realize that they may be the attackerwhen it comes to bullying online. A bunch of articles online that proove to be cyberbullying. People end up being personal online amd some use it against them. We need to think before we speak on the internet. Think about the way ypy wpuld want to be treated.

[@rebeccadeaton3823]

I like this video and all of your comments about how the school making you watch this video I’m glad the schools making us watch this and how we can learn from what we say to each other’s comments on here I read bout 100 of the comments and I agree with all of you how this video helped show how ppl act differently online. When they hide behind the internet. Also how it helps be yourself and make a cool channel that people also get interested in. And I do think cyber bullying is a serious problem because most of the time its ignored and especially in our high school kids. But great comments I never comment on videos but great video to keeps u interested.

[@AboveTheNoise]

Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave this encouraging feedback! We appreciate you.

[@sharekiagreen8062]

With the growing online social media presence of cyberbullying is at an all-time high because so many people are using social media for different reasons like video games, Facebook and Instagram. cyberbullying has steadily been on the rise because of hatred, jealousy is one of the biggest reasons and popularity. looking at some of my old classmates most recent social media posts I can see how one could misinterpret my posting because of lack of understanding people feel safe saying what they want to say online. to help lower the growth rate of cyberbullying, we can get people permission before posting pictures ask questions in a polite way and if it don't stop block or report them because it's hard to tell if a person is joking or not.

[@Bessgolf]

Great show Mr.Bess

[@AboveTheNoise]

Why thank you!

[@Bessgolf]

@@AboveTheNoise your welcome buddy

[@lovinsmurff24]

Cyberbullying is at an all-time high because of. The anonymity provided by online platforms has fueled a surge in cyberbullying, reaching unprecedented levels in today's pervasive social media landscape and it is a lot of hurt individuals who have not dealt with the trauma life has caused so this is their form of fighting the demons within is by attacking the people that use trigger words expression.

[@EuropeanQoheleth]

Well I express my opinion with strangers on the internet which I sure a heck don't do offline.

[@guest_informant]

I'm not sure people in general are meaner online, isn't it, at least in part, that those people who were always/already mean now have a platform, a megaphone, and an audience. They're setting the agenda. But it seems ridiculous to suggest that human nature has changed in the last five or ten years. If people really were mean, then they wouldn't care that they were mean, and videos like this wouldn't get made. There is a huge centre ground, I think we have to re-learn how to ignore extremists, and take back conversations.

[@AboveTheNoise]

Yeah, to clarify, the online disinhibition effect goes both ways-- people can act meaner than they would IRL, but they can also open up more online. Research shows that there can be benefits to online communication, Check this article out for more on that: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4283587/

[@wolfpup8923]

No, I would say everything to a persons face as well as online

[@EnaTenkiyoGamer]

How daring lol

[@jeremyglass7874]

I really enjoyed this video. It really makes you think about how your words are coming across to the person you are speaking with.
