I just watched a clip where someone was shamed for their age. This isn\u2019t just about age\u2014it\u2019s part of a larger trend where we shame people daily on social media.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He labeled such behavior a \u201cpsychological issue,\u201d suggesting that critics like Adil project their insecurities onto others. \u201cThey mock someone\u2019s age, looks, success, or confidence because it triggers something within them. Shaming is a defense mechanism to avoid self-reflection,\u201d Zafar added, urging a shift away from toxic online culture.<\/p>\n
