So quit Twitter and social media?
She flaunts her body like it's supposed to be something to admire, it's not. What does she expect?
Why doesn't she just quit Twitter and go live on that farm with her money and her man? Sounds like a comfy life to me. Much better than reading Twitter idiots all day every day.

Look maybe deep down, she knows shes not healthy. And instead of admitting that she focuses on her "bullies". If she didnt claim to be healthy then only a few outlier trolls would make fun of her. The O+A types. Fat is unhealthy.

I say this with a heavy heart that with the tons of abuse the internet pounds her with, she should get off the 'gram, and without an ounce of shame. It would be a huge weight lifted off her shoulders.

people like this are exactly why she wants to quit.

there's no reason to be nasty towards her because she flaunts her body. ignore her if you don't like it.

She didn't ask for it but she has to know how the internet is. It's not a kind place and it never will be.
My point is if it's making her miserable why does she still expose herself to it? She doesn't need that crap, she can find happiness without social media.
It's kinda admirable that she keeps fighting back but it's a losing prospect and it's not healthy.

Why does she keep causing people to abuse her by existing in the world? isnt as good of a rebuttal as you think it is. Youve already demonstrated the kind of toxic people she is talking about, no need to keep going on with it.

As a performer in 2023, she needs Twitter. We'll, socmed of some kind, and... somehow... Twitter is still one of the furthest-reaching platforms available.

Terrestrial radio station airplay and contests, or the local posters and TV commercials aren't enough to fill venues like it used to.

Kind of shitty, but that's the game these days.

Hayley Williams isnt as big of a star
Glover mostly writes and barely performs. I'm pretty sure he's done being Gambino
Frank Ocean is a weirdo and i love that dude.

Lizzo is a superstar and needs social media. Maybe people can just not be assholes?

People were able to have musical careers before social media. Another option is to do what many politicians do and have an intern handle their tweets.

They certainly were, but we no longer live in that era. In Western pop music at least, you're DOA without a social media presence.

Were speaking about BILLIONS of people with internet access and the ability to comment anything anywhere.

Personally, I get sick of the boo-hoo, the internet is mean pity requests. No shit. Billions of people.

You can go online and say something pure and kind and be met with hatred. We all live with this reality, so stop asking me to feel sorry for you when youre engaging with it. Its par for course.

Then theres the whole perpetual victimhood thats so prevalent nowadays.

Oh, heres a snarling dog baring its teeth. I think Ill pet it. Ow!!!! It bit me! Everyone, the dog bit me! GoFundMeStat!

That doesnt make it right.

Just on this board alone i remember someone made a topic about them mishearing a lyric of hers.

The topic was just posts of people calling her fat. Every topic about her is just people calling her fat. She doesnt even have to engage them.

Honestly she doesn't need to wear skin tight clothing, I mean its very naive to think people won't make fun of her. No its not right and it shouldn't happen but people are assholes so why give them ammo? Also its not "body shaming" to point out obesity. Acting like shes not or that its "beautiful" is harmful to everyone involved. She absolutely should not be made fun of because of her weight. But her weight also cannot be ignored...She has made it part of her image which I disasgree with. I hope she does find peace she doesn't deserve to be ridiculed.
