Reject hatred without hating.

The haters and the trolls have always used me as an excuse to make fun of something that is out of the ordinary, something that doesn't necessarily make sense to them. For whatever reason, I have always been a target that people love to attack.

Don't hit people; don't let it get you too angry; remember that everything you do can and will be used against you. And take a breath and have some perspective.

Anytime you present a message that is seen as hate, you're going to have a negative impact.

People who are against me attack me personally. They attack the way I look physically, they attack the way I dress, they attack everything but what I say.

I do personal attacks only on people who specialize in personal attacks.

There's a certain logic to avoiding the haters, but as a strategy, it's utterly flawed. When you turn off the feedback, you lose the benefits as well as the drawbacks. It's like having a sore finger and cutting off your arm.

Of course there are certain things that get to me, but I try and lead by example and show people that, especially with haters, that you should just ignore them.

One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals. And so when I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don't invest any energy in them, because I know who I am.

I don't like attacking.
