Khloé Kardashian wants internet trolls to stand by their negative comments, especially when it’s in relation to her daughter’s skin tone.
On Thursday, the Keeping Up with The Kardashians star tweeted her frustration about critics who delete their negative comments after she responds to them and stands up for herself.
“I dislike the fact that people are allowed to comment on my daughter’s skin color but as soon as I comment kindly back and praise her for all that she is, the comment gets erased,” Kardashian, 34, wrote.

The Revenge Body host, who shares 5-month old daughter True with boyfriend Tristan Thompson, then elaborated on the hate directed at her daughter — responding to a user who said, “I love seeing people stand up and compliment black/mixed skin tons definitely don’t hear it enough.”
“We need to learn to praise all skin tones/ethnicities!” Kardashian revealed. “Our beauty is in our differences. We can learn so much!”
“So proud of every human who is confident in who they are,” she added. “I’m in my 30s I think I’m just finding this confidence. So I am patient with others. But allow me to voice mine.”
She told another supporter: “We will not be defined by social media. And I don’t mind the critics but please just stick with what you have to say. Don’t erase.”
