South African actress and media personality Pearl Thusi has shared an inspiring message on how to handle online trolls.

In a recent Instagram video, Thusi revealed that she used to be affected by negative comments but has learned to rise above them. She emphasized the importance of not giving power to such comments.

“I had to remind myself that these things only have the power that I give them to affect me,” she said. “To you, consider whether this thing deserves that power to affect you. Is it true? No. Is it nice that it’s being said? No. What does it say about the person who is saying it? But the most important question is, ‘Should you let it affect you?’”

Thusi’s candid approach and wise words have resonated with fans, who praised her for her resilience and positive outlook. Her message serves as a valuable lesson for anyone struggling with online harassment.
