Jeremy Bieberis getting put in his place online after stepping into a chat about the LGBTQ community during Pride Month.
Justin Bieber's Dad Is In Hot Water
The father of one of the most famous singers in the world decided to speak up for a cause; too bad it is offensive. Jeremy took to Twitter today to share a message from his heart. "Don't forget to thank a straight person this month for your existence," said the statement.
It was on a rainbow backdrop and ended with two condescending finger peace sign emojis. The shocking message led followers to hop in the comments and trash the life out of Jeremy.
One follower wrote. "Says the man who abandoned his girlfriend and son and only returned when he was successful. I feel sorry for you if that's what "family" means to you. Don't forget to thank Justin for all the money you have; you're nothing without him:)."
Jeremy Bieber Share More Anti-LGBTQ Messages
The Canadian native isn't claiming to be hacked or not knowing better. He doubled down on the hate and, leading up to the prideful month, had been sharing more offensive messages about the community.
In March, he wrote, "Who are they," seemingly referring to the They/Them pronouns that people in the LGBTQ community and beyond have adopted. Then, in May, he tweeted, "Family isn't important; it's everything!"
Jeremy received a lot of love and support for the message because followers believed that since he wasn't around to rear Justin as a child, he was happy to have him around again. But then he tweeted a similar message a few days ago with more clarity.
"We need to celebrate families. U know the reason we're all here! The things this generation glorifies are unbelievable!" Jeremy was annoyed by what he saw as a change in the traditional family dynamic.
Jeremy Bieber Received So Much Backlash
The gym rat was bombarded with exciting messages from people who were allies or part of the LGBTQ community themselves who needed to get some things off their chest.
"How about you thank Usher for being a better father figure to Justin than you'll ever be," wrote one follower,
One person attempted to recreate the colorful posJeremy's colorful post. Instead they used a picture of the "deadbeat" dad and wrote over it, "Don't forget to thank Justin Bieber this month for your paid bills."
They also left the finger peace sign emojis that Jeremy used in his post. One person wrote, "Imagine a GROWN man acting like this. It's sad." Many people reminded him that he abandoned Justin and has no place speaking on the importance of family.
"Don't forget to thank your son for all the money u have, the same one u abandoned as a child."
Believe It Or Not, Some People Support Him
Some of Jeremy's followers agreed with his post, "zzz.. all the comments on this. I apologize for my generation. All love, brother, ignore them.. have a wonderful day."
And another agreed with his values about family being everything; they couldn't understand why the truthful statement upset people. "I don't understand how this is offensive. Lol, it's the truth!"
Unfortunately for Jeremy, the hate is only beginning as his post is picking up traction and upsetting many people.
