The comments section can be a dangerous place on the Internet, and Chrissy Teigen has had enough. She’s finally decided to take a stand against the in-fighting among her 6.5 million Instagram followers.
Over the weekend, she vented her frustrations over Twitter.
.@instagram needs an option to disable comments for the sanity of my followers who go absolutely bonkers on each other for HOURS on end.

I can’t have people threatening each other and losing their minds in extremely HARMLESS photos. It isn’t something I will take anymore.

Several people responded, pointing out that Teigen has the option of reporting offensive comments or blocking certain users; but given the thousands of comments each post yields, that is far from realistic. With comments targeting her, her fans and one another, Teigen’s solution is: “NO MORE COMMENTSSSSSSSSS!”
“I know that in the grand scheme of things, it’s such a silly cause to launch a tirade against, but I am just really bummed to see it all day,” she added on Twitter.
Regardless, we’re glad the model is speaking out. Teigen’s Instagram is a place where she shares photos of the things that matter to her, like food and her family. There’s nothing about these images that warrant any sort of negativity—so can’t we all just be nice to each other?
