Whilst other social media users remain less than thrilled with their ‘idol.’ Twitted one user on the thread: Seeing #WeLoveYouCarter trend honestly disgusts me. He doesn’t deserve anyone’s love and support, what he did was wrong. This being social media where trends come and go in a heart beat, a new hashtag this afternoon has stirred to life, perhaps to directly address those who see no wrong in Reynold’s behavior: #WeHateYouCarter That said, it’s not necessarily understood why so many followers have come to overlook Reynold’s sexist behavior and how and to what degree this reflects prevailing attitudes towards women and sexual harassment. Or whether as a star, even a 19 year old sexist social media idol can always rely on their fan base to regain shiny heights. See what you think …?
