The only powerful tool people uses to cause violence online, is words, people often times, uses their words, like what they say online be it spoken or written, to cause problem on the internet. However, knowingly or unknowingly to them these hurtful words, people uses online against one another can lead to some several effect which include;

  • Depression; This is when one is always feeling sad and moody. Today, the social media has been the major cause of depression, a whole lot has happened lately on the internet, were people are roasted online, and in turn it causes people to go in state of depression, which can leads to one committing suicide or even worst.

  • Taking wrong act; Online violence could lead to one taking wrong actions, this is usually done out of anger and hate.

  • ** War**; One of the harmful effect of online violence, is war, sometimes, abuse words between countries could lead to physical attack. In today's world, what mostly lead to war, if you check back, will be violence from online, every war nowadays starts from online abuse, then it leads to war.

However what I really think about online violence, after considering the harmful effect, Online abuse or violence has taken much life through war and depression, therefore, people should learn from this, instead of promoting violence, they should rather use it to help and encourage others who are down, in other words, help building a better community and nation.
