President Biden 5,898 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020  I mean he doesn't HAVE to do anything. Really, itâs fine if not every celebrity chimes in. Especially if they feel not educated enough on the issue. Itâs better to have legit info spread than someone misinformed spew nonsense.  So good for him. Nobody is REQUIRED to speak up and do anything. Thatâs his right. I mean, heâs not even American so...... I got drunk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartz 11,923 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I mean, speak out if you need to. Calling out people who aren't is not necessary. Silence is their choice. Maybe eventually they will, who knows. Inside, we are really made the same. đ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikolai Barrow 1,337 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Honestly they have a point. In times like these silence is siding with the oppressors. It's our responsibility to become informed if we are not well educated on the issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillieGOAT 4,911 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I think people should take celebritiesâ silence as whatever they would like, and then move on. Thereâs no use in bashing people for not posting on social media because you donât know what theyâre doing for the movement behind closed doors. It is more productive to praise the celebrities that are supporting the movement and then continue to push for change. Distracting yourself with tearing down famous people who might not be supporting BLM in the way that you would like them to is not doing the movement any favors Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

codymonster 8,006 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Yes, letâs attack someone for not speaking out, thatâll make things better  I agree, people should use their voices, but letâs not attack or call out people who donât choose to. We have no idea their reasoning, and have no idea what they ACTUALLY are doing. Letâs stay focused on the actual problem and the people using their voices for evil; not whether KJ Apa is tweeting or not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of that, when have yâall spoken up against the treatment of natives in New Zealand and the pacific in general? Are yâall suddenly supporting all thatâs been done to them because you havenât posted about it before? Can I see your posts and support for the natives that live in West Papua? These double standards are so easy to point out. Itâs not this guyâs responsibility to be vocal about every global issue, and that goes for you also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUtterfield 8 38,812 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Lol goodbye if youâre silent youâre part of the problem unless you are being threatened to stay silent, speak up please we need your voice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
