We’re betting Selena Gomez will be trying to “Kill Em With Kindness” after her latest Twitter misstep.
Sunday night (July 17), Gomez posted a tweet questioning why people aren’t speaking up about things that matter. In response to her comment, Twitter user @prasejeebus presented the Revival singer with a question that is particularly pertinent to the current state of our nation.
Good question! Why haven’t you or Taylor not said a thing about #BlackLivesMatter or police brutality? https://t.co/p5RkwnU0l9

While the question was reasonable compared to most Twitter Troll activity, the former Disney star took offense and in an effort to dismiss the fan, she managed to undermine the entire #BlackLivesMatter movement.
Baby girl @selenagomez did you hit ‘delete’ by accident? Don’t worry, I took a screenshot for ya pic.twitter.com/OU0os8siQ4

It seems that Gomez interpreted speaking out about Black Lives Matter as choosing a “side.” She since deleted the problematic response and has yet to publicly respond to criticism on her comment. Taylor Swift, who @prasejeebus’s question was also posed to, has remained equally mum.
