After sharing that she is \u201con the spectrum,\u201d Judge expected understanding and connection with others. Instead, she says, she was met with harsh comments and online trolling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI thought I was helping people,\u201d she explained. \u201cBut the hardest thing is seeing these people say such nasty, horrible things \u2014 and then call me mean. It makes you want to say, \u2018Look in the mirror.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"748\" height=\"496\" src=\"https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-19.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18197\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-19.png 748w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-19-300x199.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Judge, who is also the founder of Vena CBD, didn\u2019t hold back when describing the current state of social media. She called platforms like Instagram \u201cgross,\u201d pointing to a culture where users frequently attack others over their appearance, weight, and even go as far as issuing death threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Judge, executives at Bravo advised her to ignore the negativity, telling her that the harshest critics represent only a small fraction of viewers. \u201cThey said, \u2018Don\u2019t worry about them \u2014 they\u2019re only three percent of the audience,\u2019\u201d she recalled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"655\" src=\"https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-20-1024x655.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-20-1024x655.png 1024w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-20-300x192.png 300w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-20-768x491.png 768w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-20.png 1208w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still, the numbers offered little comfort. \u201cOnly three percent, but they\u2019re the loudest and the meanest,\u201d she said, emphasizing how those voices can have an outsized emotional impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The backlash intensified after her initial comments about being \u201con the spectrum\u201d went public, ultimately leading Judge to delete her original post. Now, she\u2019s advocating for a broader shift in how people engage online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-21-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-21-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-21-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-21-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-21-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/topkeynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-21.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI understand everyone is entitled to their opinion,\u201d she said. \u201cBut who actually behaves like that?
