Miami women’s basketball player Hanna Cavinder took to TikTok recently to defend her boyfriend — Georgia quarterback Carson Beck — and others who are attacked on social media.

Cavinder went after trolls online who talk negatively about athletes for their play, looks, etc.

“OK, I’m just going to get this off my chest, because this shit just like literally fires me up and annoys me so much about social media and society nowadays,” Hanna Cavinder said. “I don’t understand why viewers or fans or whatever it is get satisfaction from commenting on a person or athlete’s look on social media or like roasting them and thinking it’s OK to just comment about what they look like, come at them, tear them down like these people aren’t human beings.”

Athletes are criticized regularly on social media, and Carson Beck certainly received his share after struggling at times in Georgia’s loss to Alabama over the weekend.

Hanna Cavinder made it clear that she is annoyed by the negative comments.

“It’s actually sickening nowadays how society can just, you know, we just turn a blind eye to someone commenting at what a person looks like online, and it’s just sickening that people all get satisfaction of humiliating someone by their looks,” Hanna Cavinder said. “It just like doesn’t sit right with me. It makes me sick to my stomach that people can go out of their way to comment on anyone’s photos anonymously or literally with not even a burner account and be like, ‘This person’s ugly’ or commenting on people’s weight or whatever it is.

“I mean I get it all the time. I think it just is absolutely ridiculous how people can go out of their way and do that. And it just fires me up. So I’m trying to get on here and tell you guys if you have anything not nice to say to a person, maybe just like shut up and don’t say one word, because it affects people’s lives. We’re all human beings.”

Cavinder went on to say that she doesn’t know what happens that makes people act like that.

“And like, who raised these people is my question?” she said. “Like I would never have the nerve to go comment on what a female looks like, what a man looks like, on social media. And just be OK with myself being like ‘I don’t like what this person wore. This person looks a certain way to me.’ I don’t understand how you were raised to do that and think it’s OK to do that as human being to human being.”
