‘When that turns into trolling, that’s when we’ve got to look at it like when do we create boundaries? What do we do to protect people online?'
The A&E doctor and UK Youth Mental Health Ambassador pointed out that although the ITV dating show overhauled its duty of care protocols, there is still an onus on sites like Twitter and Instagram to prevent trolls from posting.
‘If you got rid of Love Island, would that get rid of the problem [of trolling]?’ Dr Alex asked. ‘I don’t think that changes the issue.’‘I run an Instagram account with 2million followers on it, I’m not going to have all 2million agree with me all the time,’ he said. ‘But I would expect people to voice that in a way that’s respectful and create reasonable arguments.
‘The campaign has revealed a clear disparity between different generations, not only in their willingness to discuss how they’re feeling, but also in their ability to describe what mental health even means.‘The real concern is that if there’s a generation that doesn’t fully understand mental health, how can they recognise it in themselves and therefore ask for support.
