Addison Rae slams trolls after Chase Hudson\u2019s worrying Instagram posts Instagram: Addison Rae \/ Chase HudsonTikTok star Addison Rae has hit out at people leaving hate comments online, after fellow social media star Chase Hudson, a.k.a Lil Huddy, posted a series of concerning stories on Instagram. While TikTok has experienced an unprecedented boom in the past year, with over 700 million users worldwide, it\u2019s no secret that its huge user base brings with it some inevitable toxicity. Even popular singer and rapper Taio Cruz abandoned the app entirely after only one week in September due to the influx of vicious hate, saying that \u201cnever in my life have I had a more negative experience than my past few days on here.\u201d If the trolls scare off an industry pro such as Taio, it\u2019s no wonder that many young influencers are feeling the pressure of daily access to violent hate comments, and it\u2019s taking a huge toll on their mental health. 18-year-old Chase Hudson, who has over 25 million followers on the video-sharing platform, had fans worried when he uploaded a series of Instagram stories that seemed to reflect a decline in his mental wellbeing. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CFwvvG6gc34\/ \u201cWhat is my worth here?\u201d he wrote in one post. \u201cWhat is my purpose? Why do I feel so alone? I\u2019m surrounded by so many f**king people everyday that I love.\u201d In another post was a picture of his shoe simply with the words \u201cI\u2019m empty inside.\u201d Addison Rae took to Twitter on the same day to share her thoughts about online bullying. \u201cTo everyone who comments hurtful things on mine and others\u2019 posts\u2026 What do you truly gain?\u201d she asked. to everyone who comments hurtful things on mine and others posts\u2026. what do you truly gain? I know it can feel as though bringing someone else down will make you feel better but it\u2019s only temporary. love others and bring them up. being kind is so much more fulfilling!! \u2014 Addison Rae (@whoisaddison) September 30, 2020 \u201cI know it can feel as though bringing someone else down will make you feel better but it\u2019s only temporary. Love others and bring them up. Being kind is so much more fulfilling!\u201d In separate tweets, in the days following, she stressed that \u201cbullying people isn\u2019t comedy,\u201d and questioned the advice she was receiving to just ignore the problem instead of dealing with the people at the core of the problem. I hear a lot of people say \u201cget used to mean comments and hate because it\u2019s just the way the world is\u201d but isn\u2019t that just normalizing\/justifying being hateful? idk I\u2019ve always thought about that and it makes sense to me but probably not to most people \u2014 Addison Rae (@whoisaddison) October 1, 2020 \u201cI hear a lot of people say \u201cget used to mean comments and hate because it\u2019s just the way the world is,\u201d but isn\u2019t that just normalizing\/justifying being hateful?\u201d she suggested, going on to say \u201cI\u2019ve always thought about that and it makes sense to me but probably not to most people.\u201d Addison Rae is one of the most popular creators on TikTok.
