They get more attention with negativity.
It’s a skill that everyone knows.
A gentle story no one cares about.
A cruel one spreads fast.
Someone shares kindness with a stranger.
The post receives only a few likes.
Someone posted a film of an argument in a public place.
The views keep climbing with no end.
A girl argued with a waiter in the restaurant.
Somebody quickly took a video of this scene.
And then they put the video on the social network.
Soon the face of the girl was known widely.
The topic said, ‘Look at this rude customer’.
The comments were full of anger and hate.
Nobody knew why the argument started.
Everyone was eager to share their opinion.
The video just showed part of the story.
It just showed the bad side of the girl.
Thinking that the waiter was harmless.
A small and simple misunderstanding made people bored.
Many angry abuses were what people who sent the video wanted.
Thousands and thousands of comments.
The people who posted this video have earned enough money.
On the internet,
Since someone wanted her to lose her job.
They sent and shared the video with their friends.
More and more people joined in attacking her, following the crowd.
Later, another video came out.
Showed the entire process.
The waiter was treated unfairly.
He shouted at the girl for no reason.
And did not listen to what the girl was saying.
She tried to explain, but the customer did not listen.
She was calm but was blamed again and again.
The girl only defended her rights.
Suddenly, the story changed.
The girl should not be criticized.
But those people who spread the video first.
Some people deleted the video or comments.
Others pretended they had not seen.
The truth was ignored.
The lies stole the spotlight.
The person who first spread the video.
Never admitted his mistakes.
Instead finding another negative story.
To keep viewers from the argument and get attention.
There is another stranger tomorrow.
Another face will be criticized.
The name and the stories will be different.
But the internet always plays the same game.
We say that we care about the truth.
But always share before that.
We judge a person by an incomplete video.
Move to another negative show.
So, when you watch a negative video.
First, think about this: is it a complete video?
Then, think that if the truth does not catch attention.
Will you say that aloud?

I really love how you wrote this. I think the way you have each sentence as an individual line works really well, and you really bring the reader into this world of criticism and point of view. I especially like the line “We judge a person by an incomplete video,” because I think it truly captures the scope of society and judgement.
