The act of trolling on social media is one ‘expensive’ joke every social media user would want to avoid because it can either make you popular in a good way or destroy you and your personality entirely.

We have seen many social media users becoming more popular after a troll with some even emerging as social media influencers/ celebrities after they were trolled on social media with a classical example being Supa aka Ghana’s Tupac and musician AY Poyoo who gained much attention to his music career after a troll on social media.

But in most cases, most people stand a chance of losing their status or popularity after social media troll to the extent of most of them deleting their social media accounts and resulting in mental breakdown.

Well, a social media user who seems to have gone through a troll has revealed the most heartbreaking part of it. He said it’s not just about the insults on your timeline when people are dragging you on social media but rather, the ‘clout’ it gathers.

He added that the ability of a trolling post to gain ‘Likes’ on social media is so heartbreaking that you will begin to wonder if you have offended the people ‘Liking’ the posts of insults aiming at you on your timeline.

The thing about TL dragging isn’t the insults. It’s the clout the insults gather. Telling me I am a fool won’t pain me. But telling me I am a fool and having 2,000 likes. That mean 2,000 people agree with you that I am a fool. Ayeraye o.
The worst part is when you now scroll through the likes and see people from some only-God-knows-where country. Why should you let a Bahubali_djome from Oman agree that I am a fool? What did I do to you? Did I take your partner? You could have just dmed me
All of you that do this thing intentionally, God will judge you o. Honestly. Because I don’t know why I will make a good thread on the TL, you’ll enter my dm to tell me that I am smart. But when it is time to drag me, you will set me up for drags from Bahubali. E shunu ni?
