"I'm not fucking apologising for that. I mean, for fuck's sake, I commented on one thing. I said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes. What I said was pretty damn factual, and I'm free to have an opinion, of course."
"I can get angry about misogyny and racist rhetoric and ALSO very much agree that Charlie Kirk's murder was absolutely disturbing and deplorable in every way imaginable. No one should have to experience this level of violence. This country is grieving too many senseless and violent deaths and shootings. Can we agree on that at least?"
"Thank God for Instagram. I was able to give some clarity, and it was about getting my voice back because I felt like it had been stolen and recontextualised which is what people do, of course."
Amanda Seyfried refused to apologise for describing Charlie Kirk as hateful after he was shot dead in September. The original comment, 'He was hateful,' responded to an Instagram Reel compiling Kirk's most controversial quotes and attracted widespread criticism. Seyfried later posted a separate Instagram statement on 17 September acknowledging that Kirk's murder was 'absolutely disturbing and deplorable' and asserting that no one should endure such violence amid a nation grieving senseless shootings. Seyfried emphasized that she made a factual comment based on footage and quotes and said Instagram allowed her to clarify and reclaim her voice after it had been recontextualised.
