Renowned show host, Frank Edoho, recently shared his perspective on handling social media trolls, emphasizing that blocking is an act of cowardice.
During a candid conversation on the Bants and Boujee podcast, hosted by Tolanibaj and Moet Abebe, Frank elaborated on his approach to dealing with online negativity.
According to Frank, he considers the act of blocking a troll as counterproductive and a display of cowardice. Instead, he shared that he opts for a different strategy to handle online criticism.
In the podcast, Frank revealed that rather than blocking individuals who troll him, he identifies the most vocal or prominent trolls, referring to them as the ringleaders.
His approach involves directly addressing and dealing with the ringleader, aiming to neutralize their impact. Frank believes that by targeting the leader, others are likely to hesitate before continuing down the same path of negativity.
This nuanced perspective on handling social media trolls was captured in a video snippet shared on Twitter, where Frank asserted that blocking people on social media is an act of cowardice.
