Internet, you can be a cruel mistress at times!
The story goes with Alif Aolani, he’s a Malaysian lad that was born with a disfigured face. He has quite the following on his Instagram page with almost 6,000 followers! Teach me senpai!
Unfortunately not all of them are nice folks like you guys! Some of them practically make a living trolling his page and post nasty, hateful comments. Why, you ask? Solely because he was born disfigured.
The poor boy had to endure countless nasty remarks about his looks every day. He even posted a heartbreaking status saying,
“Things like this make me feel so not human being and I had to go through this all day every since I was a boy (calling me names, teasing me with their ‘faces’ and probably one of the reasons why I wanted to fix my face and actually look normal.”
“But I’m glad what this anonymous told me that how ugly I am and I gotta accept it because that’s the truth. Sometimes I feel like, I made people uncomfortable when I’m with them and I’m sorry for that. Reasons why I never believe that I’m not special when people be telling me that cause I know it ain’t. And I’m sorry I had to put this through the social media. I’m sorry.”
Yeah, you couldn’t imagine what people had to say!
This is by far one of the worse ones out there! And this isn’t even rare, scrolling through his feed shows many nasty comments all ridiculing him for his looks.
He says that these snarky remarks makes him “feel not so human being” and recounts how he was bullied as a child because of his looks and how he wanted to undergo corrective surgery just to fit in.
His even apologized because he feels that his looks make people uncomfortable! 🙁
Thankfully for him, his post pretty much set social media ablaze! Twitter made this go especially viral and support began pouring in from all over!
The fact there are so many strangers who dropped him these heartwarming messages just melts your heart.
It kinda made this whole thing a little bit better seeing that much positivity flowing onto the lad! Also, fun fact, this guy is a rapper! He goes by the name of Airliftz and you can check out his tracks on his SoundCloud!
It’s playing loud in the office right now! From us at WOB, we’d like to urge y’all to pop by his Insta and say hey as well as to share this out to remind everyone that bullying isn’t cool!
