I feel like you completely misunderstood my post. I wasn't referring to him having an opinion on Justin Bieber - because I share the same opinion as him; Justin's a douche and gotta face the consequences of his actions. However I do not approve of Jared purposely misgendering Justin, nor do I approve of his fans ridiculing anyone who doesn't take it as the joke that it was apparently supposed to be. I /get/ that many people have made that 'joke' (ahahaha womanhood what an insult) and that many other people have made comments that are worse (fx zach braff and other people making rape jokes) but that still doesn't make his 'joke' right and it does not give his fans the right to make themselves seem superior and better. which was what they did.

I also have an issue with the fans who defend Justin - and so does everyone else. But I also have a problem with Jared's tweet and his fans' way of responding to people who felt offended / upset by it.

Which was what my post was about because honestly, just look at the SPN fans' comments on this post, it's ridiculous. Just scroll through a few pages of notes. http://butgemma.tumblr.com/post/74309679854/shoutingsoloud-x-okay-so-if-youre-not

And yes, of course Jared can tweet whatever he wants, but that doesn't mean there aren't going to be consequences. Freedom of speech doesn't mean no one can critize you on your words.
