#like i said i don't stan or idolize celebrities but some actors and musicians i really love are bisexual and it makes me feel happy!!
Note
random but sometimes i think about all the bisexual celebrities that are out there and it's like...damn. we really do stay winning.
it really is kinda like omggg to think abt all the bi celebrities out there like i don't really like "stan" celebrities or anything but when someone comes out like i can't help but to be feel excited <3 there are probably so many more celebrities who are bi or lesbian or gay that aren't even out! and it's like kinda reassuring in some ways like we're everywhere lol!

Yer to that anon Tom never said he's just a kid so doenst speak about issues that was that weird magazine reporter that said 'it's easy for tom to say he's just a kid so won't speak about issues but he did speak about BLM, but not the US election'... that was such a weird thing to include in a movie interview anyway especially as he is not American,, but anyway just wanted to clear up Tom never said that so check your reading skills anon.
And PERSONAL OPINION from me: I feel like it's a very US thing for celebrities to be expected to use social media to talk about social issues. I find it to be a weird expectation. You can praise people for talking about 'woke' things, but don't then turn around and point fingers at those who don't? To me they're just actors or musicians or whatever- that's what they're experts in, that's their job and therefore they have loads of followers that come with the job- that doesn't automatically come with the instinct of oh I need to make a post about this social issue, oh this is happening in the world let me go on my phone and post about it! I think being a stan especially it's easy for these fans to forget life goes on outside the apps. There's so many experts in social issues who are working and fighting everyday because theyre in the thick of it and know what the fuck theyre talking about, so GIVE THEM PLATFORMS! Literally off the top of my head osopepatrisse, Rachel.cargle etc. are top activism and social justice accounts on insta that deserve bigger platforms, but people don't actually care enough to follow people like that, instead they want actors to speak about stuff that happens that they're literally seeing and learning about the same time as the rest of the world, when actual activists are right there with th best possible awareness, knowledge and advice? Make it make sense.
Tom uses the platform he's been given by fans for good- sorry if it's not up to peoples standards or in the exact way you want him to use it lol. But literally the first thing he did after the Civil War premiere was create a charity... He's handled the rise to fame with all the eyes that come with it amazingly, I think I would have deleted all public social media by now if I were him cus I could never stand these expectations of what I should post and when I should speak.
I'm tired and this was a rant sorry haha
No worries for the rant lol.  I do feel that US may differ on what we expect on social media maybe compared to others in different countries perhaps? I don’t necessarily mind when celebrities speak out on various political or social justice issues.  I know some hate it, but I don’t mind it. I figure, they are a citizen of this country just as much as I am, so why shouldn’t they speak out on politics if they want to?  It’s a “free country” with “freedom of speech” right??  🥴 Or is it just that they aren’t saying things that you agree with? 😏
Anyway, I do agree on some level that people should be focusing on REAL activists, and not celebrities.  But at the same time, I can see a die-hard fan of a celebrity wanting that person to speak out.... Not to get “brownie points” but because some like to feel like the person they idolize and love are people who align with their own values.  In addition, actors, musicians, artists etc may have certain professions, but they are still PEOPLE who live in the same world that we live in.  It’s nice to know that their fame and money hasn’t completely blinded them or  made them tone deaf to certain world events. So, I can understand why some like it when their faves speak out or at least acknowledge certain things.
