Following the departure of Ghostbusters actress Leslie Jones from Twitter after she was repeatedly harassed, the hashtag #LoveForLeslieJ started trending.

Chrissy Teigen took the movement a step further by aiming her frustrated tweets at the Twitter higher-ups, asking them to do "anything to show you give a damn."

The hate speech that was constantly thrown at Jones had escalated before the actress finally decided to call it quits, prompting the movement helmed by the hashtag #LoveForLeslieJ.

Twitter chief executive Jack Dorsey tweeted Jones about the discouraging issue, asking her to privately message him so they could discuss it further.

A Twitter spokesperson added, "We realise we still have a lot of work in front of us before Twitter is where it should be on how we handle these issues."
