Actress Chloe Grace Moretz took to Twitter to slam the haters who "hide behind" their computers and comment other people in mean and hurtful ways.
The 19-year-old "Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising" star said these trolls need to sit back and realize that the person on target has feelings too, reported People magazine.
"When will people hiding behind computer screens get tired of calling someone 'fat' or 'masculine. Does it make you feel good typing your hateful comments ? Does it fulfill you in some dark way?" Moretz wrote.
"Sit back before you fire away commenting ignorant things and imagine the real HUMAN BEING you are commenting about. He or she is a PERSON, with feelings and thoughts and a life that you are affecting so negatively," she added.
Moretz then used herself as an example of someone who's been on the receiving end of some social media backlash.
"I've spent my whole life in front of cameras growing up with miscellaneous people judging and critiquing every little thing about myself.
"And it's time we all stop hiding behind keyboards pretending we know even the smallest thing about the people we judge. That's all - have a nice taco Tuesday guys," she concluded.
