Britney is a human just like us with feelings and the right to express herself

[GlitterRain]

I’ve been seeing a lot of negative comments on here about Britney and how she chooses to express herself. Let’s not act like all of us has never spoke our truth, been in a fight or made a shady post about someone before. It certainly doesn’t stop some on here from making shady posts about other users? What’s the difference when Britney does it? Because she’s a celebrity? No. She’s a human first, before being the celebrity and she has feelings just like all of us on here. 
 

We all get offended, sad, mad or upset and can express ourselves. She shouldn’t be labeled as this horrible person that’s doing something wrong for also having feelings and expressing herself… Let’s try and remember that Britney is a person and has endured so much in her life. Let’s remind ourselves that we too can say things that we don’t mean or say out of anger, except we don’t have the entire world watching and waiting for us to make a mistake 

 

We love you Britney and you have every right to speak your truth 🤍

people here are more worried about her "image" than she is, and it speaks volumes to what and how they value her. i'm all for britney expressing herself however she chooses to. she's a grown woman, if she makes a mistake she deserves the grace to learn from and it and grow, like every other human on the planet. not be shamed, by her own fans nonetheless, and told how she should behave. that's for no one to decide, or judge, but her. regardless if she's a public figure or not.

I have less than 500 followers on Instagram, and I would never think to weaponize them as a way to channel my anger at certain individuals, my anger at supposed slights, or post *****. Of course, that is just me, but in being a semi-active Instagram user, outside of Britney, that seems to be the way most people use the site: as a place to post a cute pic, to promote their brand, or just to socialize about the pleasant things.

 

Britney's life and what she has gone through has been traumatic, to say the least. But that doesn't mean she can't take a few helpful words from her fans and supporters who are just earnestly trying to protect her from a mix of cringe, online hate, and loss of broader support. For the briefest period of like 8 months in her 25 year career in public life, Britney Spears was universally respected, adored, and recognized for the legend she is both in music and in her personal traumas post Free Britney. As fans, it is understandable that we would want to protect her from losing that since (because she will never stop being a public figure) the alternative is a return to the near universal ridicule and hatred she received in 2005, 2006 and 2007 which landed her in this mess to begin with.

 

Whether it's fair or not, human beings are a judgmental group and will sooner put you down than forgive your eccentricities. If any fan is fine coddling Britney so as to not hurt her feelings, that's fine. But some of us don't want to see the World turn against her again, knowing how fragile her emotions are already.

Genuine concern isnt being negative. We don’t have to fawn all over everything she says or does. It’s the ride or dies that feel the need to attack anyone with a difference of opinion that are the negative ones. This is a very sad and difficult time to be a Britney Stan.

what's also really frustrating is people think this is a new thing.   it's been going since 1999

EXACTLY.... it's never stopped.

Everything this woman says/does/wears/sings has been picked apart since day ONE 

Can we just finally let her breathe ?!

Agreed.

I don’t know about this. You say we all get offended or sad or mad and want to express ourselves, but I’ve never publicly called someone I know a “piece of sh it” and told them “**** you bich”. To me that’s quite a horrible thing to do!! I’d have to seriously hate someone to do that and I’d also make sure people knew what they’d done too, which Britney hasn’t said, so it’s hard to know why exactly she’s lashing out like this.

As human beings we are all hypocrites in some way, shape or form. At this point though, I don’t really care what Britney does as long as she’s not a danger to herself or others. You do you girl. 

[Daniela.tomasseli]

I don’t really care or mind, she can do whatever she wants she is a free woman and welp.. the public is once again turning against her due to the way she has freely chosen to cope with her issues.

Like someone pointed out above.. it was nice for a while having the public and media huge support during and briefly post #FreeBritney. Now it is awful to be a "stan" having to watch how the public and media are mocking her behavior on social media.

She is free now and that is all I care about.. even if I do not sympathize with the way she handles herself.. at least she is free and as a fellow human I wish her peace, healing and happiness.

It’s upsetting the number of gay men that have loud opinions about the images of female nudity. If you can’t appreciate the artistry of Britney’s beautiful portraits, keep scrolling. These pics are not for you. Get over it.

WE ALL ALREADY AGREE WITH THIS but she is making things 100x harder for herself despite the freedom and right to destroy your reputation. She needs to find other outlets. This is not helping her heal. It’s drawing a lot of negative attention. Why can’t people understand this.

How is she ruining her reputation? Britney is being celebrated in the feminist and art communities for her Instagram. 
Why are people offended by her portraits?

Britney will not allow herself to be blackmailed by the threat of "leaked" n00dz. The chick is brilliant

I can only speak for myself but for me it's more so the constant need to bring up her mental health. You can disagree with her choices without saying she isn't well. 

It's a stigma people have used on women for years and as a woman it's offensive. I certainly didn't agree with her going after xtina but not once did I mention her mental health. 

It's like she can never say or do anything without someone thinking she is losing it again and the argument that comes up the most is the general public is going to see her as crazy and its like WHO CARES! Like seriously why do we care what they think. You're either going to support her or not.
