Unorganized Diaries Entry 2 - (Let us just shut our mouths and move along)

I have been scanning through Youtube for good songs this evening, when out of the blue, there is this comment about a kid who has talent, so I looked it up, the kid was pretty young, but I was amazed by the number of Views in his videos; 500 Million Plus and counting. I was amazed, the kid was good (Fair enough for a kid of his age), and scanning through the video comments were very good messages of praise, I mean yeah he is good so he deserves those comments. But continually scrolling down I saw a certain comment which is very inappropriate, it was hating on the kid.

The comment was profound, senseless, profane, inappropriate & insulting. It wasn't the only comment like that, comments like and I am quoting. 'This kid is gay." , "His voice sounds gay.", "f****** auto-tuned". And many more. It is very heartbreaking to see people bash kids all around the Internet, especially aspiring artists. But what creeps me out is the immediate assumption of these people that kids with talent are gay. Well no. These kids have dreams and quite big, why not support them? Why not shut our mouths or control our itching fingers and stop commenting hate messages? Dudes there are better stuff that you should worry about other than the voice of a 8-10 year old who has talent. Why not do something that is worth your time? Why not do something that will help the world? Why not be like this kid who has guts to post his videos amid the wide number of negative thinkers and people in the Internet. Are we this childish? Are we this immature? To do this? Let us all be mature.

This is how I see it, I see it IN the eyes of a teen.

(This was spontaneous so sorry for any grammatical errors. Sorry grammar police.)
