MEDIA BULLYING
I was pleased to hear that Melania Trump, about to become our First Lady, will focus on stopping media bullying on Twitter and Facebook. Great goal, and I admire her taking this on. Too many of America’s children are being intimidated and bullied by classmates who only want to force their own perspectives down other people’s throats. Not cool. I wonder where these kids picked up such a crazy idea as to shame others into compliance with their social view?
Perhaps they learned it from their parents on Twitter and Facebook who re-post hate-filled and disparaging posts about the people who would soon become leaders of the United States. Isn’t that what veterans fought against in Europe 70 years ago? Paul said, “Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear” (Ephesians 4:29).
So, I’m cheering for Melania. I wish her success on her new goal and hope her first successful project is her husband.
