Unfortunately, history knows a lot of such people who completely undeservedly received mass hatred.

1.
Macaulay Culkin. For people old enough to remember, the young *Home Alone* star got a bunch of hate for being a spoiled brat when he sued to divorce his parents. Truth of the matter is his father was a physically abusive a*****e, and his parents were going to take the $15-20M he earned from acting and leave Macaulay with nothing. -
2.
Brendan Fraser, after the trailer for The Whale was released the fat acceptance movement had a go at him. Fat activists went on and on about how fatphobic it supposedly was that he was wearing a fat suit instead of gaining the weight for the role. They tried to "cancel" the movie and said that as he was a "small fat" he shouldn't have played a role that was made for a "super fat" actor. The way I see it, Brendan Fraser is one of the few unproblematic celebrities who got the opportunity to make a come back after years of not acting, he made this comeback after being open about being a victim of abuse, and he doesn't deserve to be welcome with more hate and more abuse, especially from people who could make the choice to change themselves instead of moaning a out everyone who happens to be slimmer than them. -
3.
The "hot coffee" McDonald's lady. The story that I had heard and believed for years was that some woman burnt her tongue a little and sued McDonald's for not marking clearly that their coffee was hot. When the reality was that McDonald's raised the temperature of their coffee way higher than normal, it spilled on her when getting it in the drive through, and her burns were horrifically severe and she needed skin grafts. She was suing for so much because it literally how much her medical bills cost. But so many people ridiculed her and the case for years. -
4.
Janet Jackson - a dude rips off part of her costume and SHE gets cancelled? Also - it’s a titty, why the uproar? Titties are great. -
5.
Alan Turing. You’re not being forced to salute the Nazi flag because of him and the very people who’s a**es he saved drove him to suicide. -
6.
Ignaz Philipp Semmelweis. He was a Hungarian physician and scientist, described as the "saviour of mothers". He proposed the practice of washing hands with chlorinated lime solutions in 1847 while working in Vienna General Hospital's First Obstetrical Clinic, where doctors' wards had three times the mortality of midwives' wards. Some doctors were offended at the suggestion that they should wash their hands and mocked him for it. In 1865 he allegedly suffered a nervous breakdown and was committed to an asylum by his colleagues. In the asylum he was beaten by the guards. He died 14 days later from a gangrenous wound on his right hand that may have been caused by the beating. His findings earned widespread acceptance only years after his death, when Louis Pasteur confirmed the germ theory. -
7.
Sinéad O'Connor. Tried to expose the abuse from the churches and pretty much lost her career. People used her as a punching bag at the time, but nobody ever apologized to her. -
8.
Honestly: Britney Spears. The way we treated her after the breakdown is downright sad. The fact that more people don't crack under the pressure she was going through baffles me; imagine your life is televised almost 24/7 and you couldn't even feel sure that you had privacy in your own home. Not even gonna get into the conservatorship. We really did her dirty. Regardless of what you think about the music, she deserved and deserves to be treated with more respect than she got. -
9.
Corey Feldman over his comments about childhood sexual abuse in Hollywood. Barbara Walters treated him like s**t and basically told the world he was a liar. -
10.
Y’all probably too young to remember when Keanu Reeves was a late night punchline for years. In the 90’s every reference to the man was about how stupid he seemed. -
11.
Monica Lewinski -
12.
The girl plying Ellie in the Last of us live action. It’s disgusting how people are bullying her for her looks. -
13.
Leana Headey, according to an interview she received a lot of hate when she played Cersei in game of thrones. I guess some people can’t separate reality from film. Shows how great of an actress she is -
14.
Jimmy Carter. He was an OK president during some hard times. And now we know that Regan's people delayed the release of the Iran hostages until after the election. -
15.
galileo galilei. he was just speaking facts -
16.
Amy Winehouse. Once “rehab” hit and she became that pinup girl with the drug problem icon, it was all but over. Media played her out like Britney or others, but in reality she was a talented musician who wrote all her own songs and brought a modern style of jazz to what was otherwise pop b******t at the time. Didn’t help her father and partner used her for all she was worth till the end. -
17.
Lindsey Lohan- overworked and pimped out by her parents -
18.
Linkin Park, but more specifically, Chester Bennington. He was bullied severely in high school for being skinny. He was also sexually abused as a child, so he wrote about his feelings. He was addicted to several drugs before he even turned 17. He did so much for his fans like even with a broken hand he continued to perform, but then the band changed genres went a little less heavy more softer instruments, but the lyrics were just as deep. The loudest fans didn't care they hated it. They bullied the band intensely. In 2006, Chester had a cyberstalker who wouldn't leave him or his family alone, the reasoning she gave when she got caught? "I was bored," she tortured Chester, put him on edge even after she was caught -
19.
Salieri. Pretty chill dude. Mozart's biggest supporter. Lent him his libretista so he could write Figaro. Took care of Mozart's kid after he passed away. -
20.
The guy who played Kid Anakin He was bullied so hard that it ruined all the love he had for Star Wars. -
21.
Marie Antoinette. A well meaning, polite teen with next to zero knowledge of a world she wasn’t let near (by those who made the decisions for her). And then she was killed. -
22.
Fatty Arbuckle. He went to prison for years when the DA tried him for death of a starlit. Later found innocent he was no longer welcome in Hollywood. -
23.
Guy Fieri. People dog on him for no reason. He has a fun tv show and I've heard he does a lot for charity. -
24.
Tara Reid. She did not drive drunk. She did not kill anybody with her car. She did not get arrested. She partied a lot and her boob fell out. That’s it. Also, if memory serves, she was treated horribly by Carson Daly. -
25.
Sulli. She was a k-pop idol who was driven to suicide by from malicious netizens who hated her for being outspoken in a conservative society. When she passed people even said she was just too weak. -
26.
Greta Thunberg. -
27.
The guy who played Joffrey Baratheon (Jack Gleeson) -
28.
Michael Phelps - IMO, he could have denied that picture of him smoking marijuana was actually him since it was unclear. At the end of the day he didn’t deny it and lost some serious endorsements if I remember right. Not a big deal. -
29.
Rebecca Black. Got ROASTED hard at 14 years old for the song Friday. Patrice Wilson was the producer and got paid by both Black’s mom and a good chunk of the proceeds but he flew under the radar from the abuse. Granted, it’s a dumb song, but the hatred was immense for a 14 year old kid. -
30.
Rob Pilatus and Fab Morvan. They weren't told until after they had already signed the contracts and spent an advance from the record label on new clothes and hair extensions for their promo shoots that they wouldn't be singing on the album. They couldn't afford to pay back the advance so they said they would stick with the label until they made enough money to pay them back. When the lipsync scandal went down they got all the blame for it. -
31.
Paris Hilton’s ex sold revenge [sexual content] to a legit publisher and got away with it. She somehow got treated as if she was responsible. -
