Haters Gonna Hate

Why people are so mean online and how to deal with cyberbullying

Tempestuous Twitter threads and fierce Facebook feuds – most of us have witnessed or experienced online bullying. We asked Russian bloggers with millions of followers why they think people have become so aggressive these days.

With the proliferation of smart phones, anyone on social media can become a victim of cyberbullying. Internet trolls resort to name-calling, sending explicit images, spreading rumours, and sometimes making threats.
Why are people so mean and rude online? Explore the origins of online bullying in our new film.

Watch the premiere of Haters Gonna Hate on RTD's site this Friday at 14:00 GMT.
