If you’re someone that has been following social media over the past several days, you are probably well aware that numerous celebrities have been posting Black Lives Matter content, supporting the movement and encouraging folks to donate their time and/or money to the cause. And because it’s 2020 and there’s a large portion of the US that is awful, posting a simple message saying “Black Lives Matter” can be deemed controversial, as Seth Rogen experienced.
Recently, Rogen went on Instagram and shared a simple picture of the words “Black Lives Matter.” And as a caption, he said, “If this is a remotely controversial statement to you, feel free to unfollow me.” Of course, as mentioned above, people are terrible and there were a number of folks that took it upon themselves to comment on the picture and say they were either unfollowing Rogen or that they support “All lifes matter” (their spelling, not mine).
Because the actor-writer-director-producer obviously has no problem replying harshly to the idiots, trolls, and racists, Rogen’s Instagram comments turned into a hilarious feed of expletives aimed at those people. Some of the comments include simple replies such as “Get fucked,” “Eat shit and fuck you,” and “I mean fuck YOU and your father.”
To one particular commenter that used #alllivesmatter and went on to victim-blame the people being brutally beaten by police officers, Rogen went out of his way to not only insult the person but also tell them to not bother watching his movies anymore.
He replied, “Fuck off. You don’t deserve my movies anymore. Stop watching my shit.”
So, if it isn’t already abundantly clear, if you have a problem with the Black Lives Matter movement, Seth Rogen doesn’t want you as a fan and doesn’t feel like you deserve his films. And you know what? Kudos to Seth Rogen. More celebrities should be as upfront and honest, especially when it comes to supporting a worthy cause.
And if you hate Seth Rogen, then you can donate to the Anti-Seth Rogen Fund here. The more money, the better. Really let him know how much you dislike him with large donations.
