Does The Facebook React Button Enable Bullying?

My question regards to one simple feature. The fact that people can now “react” to others posts. For example, someone posts something personal, or deep, etc, and someone replies with “laughing emoji, mad emoji, etc”.

Bullying will always be there. Social media itself enables humans. But these simple additions letting people react, trigger features almost, have made it easier for antagonizers to try and piss someone off. That is my opinion.

What do you think? I am not on social media much myself, just due to the fact there is so much hatred.
Hmmm I dont think placing a reaction such as laughing, mad or any other emoji should be considered as bullying. Looking on it as a childish criticism for lazy people. I also believe those who like to receive "Like" on their posts also like to receive no matter what kind of emoji cause you know, all they are seeking for is attention. Ppl shouldnt take it too personal but.. if by any chance they get mad/offended/depressed by emoji's well.. they should stop posting and problem is solved ?
I see nothing wrong with it personally.
It does seem the world in general has gotten way more sensitive than the past tbh.
If I made a post and someone reacted to it with an angry emoji or anything similar, I'd be fine with that because it's been on Facebook for a while now.

Most people that put those negative reactions usually don't comment, I feel I'd rather deal with someone with angry emoji reacts than commenting. But I guess it goes to the person personally.

You’ve been able to react for years.
If someone gets butt hurt because someone reacted to their post then they should probably delete their account.
I’d say so yeah. Whenever I see a Danish article on something regarding immigrants I always see the same old washed up 70 year old Danes reacting with an angry smiley even though the article is putting a positive story out.

I couldn't say it better bro
I doubt a reaction can be bullied with.
You can just block the person who's doing that and they'll be gone forever.
A old friend of mine has removed me from their friends list after i reacted to every single one of his posts with the sad emoji. Still don't give a fuck.
