Adrian Grenier Made An Unpleasant 9/11 Tweet, And Gets Hit With Backlash From Twitter For It

I saw hundreds of people posting and tweeting the same quote on Friday. He was most likely just riding the wave and ended up catching the brunt of the backlash. Sucks for him.
 
He deleted it ?

He should've doubled-down with a retweet that said "But if Donald Trump would've said it, y'all would've ate it up. FOH"

Freedom of speech is not allowed for minorities if you become a celebrity. Word to Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, MLK, Bill Cosby, Che Geuvaro, Huey P. Newton. Anyone that's said any truth about the fake Jews and has been called anti "semetic".

Didn't see anything wrong with the tweet

Agree in theory, but then...

these are the same motherfuckers who like to say "all lives matter".

Exactly.

There is nothing wrong with the sentiment in the tweet at all...but you can't really tweet that on the specific anniversary of 9/11...a day that has come to be used to remember those who actually died in the terror attack. Wait a day or a week or a month and then get on your soapbox about the fucked up shit we did to Iraqi citizens. When you say it as a comparison to the terror attack victims, this is what happened.

It ain't rocket science.
 
If you think this is stupid, you should have seen the backlash Capcom got fro releasing a new Arab character in Street Fighter on 9/11. The character isn't a terrorist or Muslim extremist. He's a tech geek that's trying to save his friend, and his release was supposedly disrespectful to America. These white people actually think that all Arabs should be forever shunned on that day.

Nah, bruh, thinking like that is how we ended up in a pointless war against Iraq to begin with. Of course you want to remember the victims of 9/11 on that day, but it's also fair to remind everyone that our government used that tragedy to push an unrelated war that led to the deaths of millions of innocent lives. Saying that people should have to wait a couple weeks to bring that up is like saying only the American deaths that happened on 9/11 matter.

I PERSONALLY don't think you should have to wait. Because I'm intelligent and discerning enough to understand what he meant by the tweet. My point is that you HAD to know how that tweet was gonna be taken. Either that, or he isn't very intelligent.

Just because I disagree with the people who tweeted him in outrage doesn't mean I don't understand where they are coming from. Even if it's stupid.

And I don't 100% agree with you either, but I'm closer to your side than their side.

Are we going to have to remember this shit every year for the rest of our lives? And then with remembering comes the pointless arguing of who was behind the attacks. At this point nobody does more than shout out a meaningless internet r.i.p anyways. People died I'm over it.
 
If white america has refused to accept the mistreatment of blacks in america every century, what makes you think they'll acknowledge the atrocities they commit overseas
 
The real number is nowhere near that. It's bad, but things that are blatantly wrong perturbed me.

Although the Iraq War was stupid as hell, it is a dick movie to post that on 9/11
