Bullying on social media is now a sad normal state of affairs. Football professional Max Kruse from 1. FC Union Berlin has now verbally countered.
Berlin (dpa) – After hateful comments on the Internet against his girlfriend, soccer professional Max Kruse made the author of the message verbally.
The 33-year-old striker of Bundesliga club 1. FC Union Berlin published messages from the user in an Instagram story – and condemned this approach. “That’s stupid. I have to be careful what I say (…). “Afterwards, Kruse countered the statements of the user about the girlfriend with drastic words and went on to say:” When it comes to me: I don’t fucking care. But leave my girlfriend out of it. “
Later the man apologized to Kruse and withdrew everything, “he probably got a little scared. You should think about it before you write something like that. ”Kruse did not accept the apology and wrote:“ Honestly, I don’t give a shit about your apologies. Why are you apologizing to me If you should apologize to someone, it is to my girlfriend. “
People who spread hatred on the net would always only notice what they were doing when they were insulted, said Kruse. “But death threats are totally out of place. Let’s not go down to that level. ”Because apparently the hate report writer himself was threatened afterwards. “I think he learned his lesson, let it be. He saw his mistake. Because if we do exactly the same as he does, then we are no better than him, ”said Kruse.
