Kylie Jenner being a self-made billionaire teas lmao. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daylight Jokers 14,958 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 What's wrong with what he said tho? I thought he was just grateful to be having all the luxuries during this time of crisis unlike some other people so he empathises with them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphaz 7,956 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 There are fortunate people and there are less fortunate people. That's just how life works. Some people can handle the truth, because sometimes truth hurts. Some people feel everybody needs to be compassionate towards others in this kind of situation, but it's not compulsory for every individual to do that. Luckily we stan the modern Mother Teresa.

People are bored but it’s getting annoying that everyday someone is getting backlash over something regular people do and say all the time. It’s just “celebs” can’t do or make any statements anymore without ridicule of some sort. Lol I disagree. We're only now realising how important vital jobs are! Never ever could I've imagined that the system that we know in the western world could be broken, now is the time to act, speak out and change the economic system! Yes they don't need to backlash all these celebs but some of them (Hi Ellen) say dumb things Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it just further proves how much of a division there is between the classes. Rich people talking between themselves about how privileged and lucky they are for being in that position. Or at least that’s how I see it. So I guess it’s understandable that people got upset with what he said. I think it's understandable people were a bit upset, but the level of outrage (from what I've seen) is ridiculous. On a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the worst, it maybe deserves a 1 or 2....but the media is treating it like a 10. People are raw and angry, but it's being expressed in the wrong ways sometimes.

Yes I know. I was trying to rationalize the sentiment of those people, but reactions on Twitter are always overblown to a max anyways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered if this was the reason ppl were upset... Still he acknowledged his privedge and said he felt bad about the people struggling he literally said nothing wrong I bet u 99% of these twitter trolls that love to drag famous people for everything make more problematic statements themselves on a daily basis Celebs are literally held to an impossible standard these days. I would hate to be one at this point And for the record I'm not a Bieber fan and I think he says and does problematic things all the time. But this clearly is not one of those situations Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least he's acknowledging that people are suffering and that he feels blessed and appreciates the things he's worked for. Can't fault him here He lives in a different world. No one works as hard as him and that's why he's in the position he's in? incredibly delusional. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they don't need to backlash all these celebs but some of them (Hi Ellen) say dumb things My thing is this. People take a positive statement as if it’s an attack on something. I don’t even like him tbh lol but sayin” I feel for those who aren’t as fortunate as us.” Shouldn’t be reason to be outraged. Annoyed maybe but to “cancel” someone for saying that... it’s too much for me. Someone will always be offended by something a celebrity says, yet there friend Jessica can say it without any lashing? Bill down the street can joke about Corona but a celeb can’t? Just makes it seem like we hold celebs way to powerful in our minds.. idk just my take but I respect your opinion May I Read You? 😎 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumzy3000 7,387 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Hard work does not equal stability or money or anything to be honest. There are many people who work very hard but will never be as rich as the top 1%. I think this is why people are upset at his comments because it does come of as ignorant in a way. trolly troll troll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
