Social media mainly consists of two kinds of people. One that communicates decently with other users using good behavior. The second group consists of rowdy users. They are keener on spreading hate and exchanging expletives in the comments section. If you use YouTube as a channel owner, then maybe once or twice you may have had the misfortune to face such creepos in your comment section. These guys don’t just target anyone person. They randomly spit venom at anyone they don’t like. To deal with them the best way is to block them or their YouTube channel.

It means a lot of people use YouTube but they may not know how to block someone or report an inappropriate post. There is absolutely no reason why you should keep getting hate from some cyberbully.
