How did THIS happen?

This is the most benign thing ever to cause someone to leave social media, leaving us to believe trolling has gotten WAY outta control. Demi Lovato was live-Tweeting during the Super Bowl and commenting on how boring it was -- which is what we were ALL thinking -- and posted: "So far 21 savage memes have been my favorite part of the Super Bowl." No biggie, right?

Well fans disagreed! Rapper 21 Savage was arrested for overstaying his visa Sunday and when news broke, people were shocked to learn their favorite Atlanta "native" is actually a British citizen.

Well Demi posted to her Instagram story to explain that this is the meme to which she was referring ...


Pretty harmless, right? Well Savage fans didn't think so. Some responded with scathing critiques like: "Go shoot some more heroine [sic] Demi. She’s a hypocrite let’s pull out the heroin memes and see if this bitch doesn’t get emotional." Rapper Wale Tweeted: "Why is somebody freedom funny … I don’t get the joke. A lot of people were sending you love, light, prayers etc. When people were making jokes about u at a rough time. A lot of people. Bless up."

Demi responded: "Wasn’t laughing at anyone getting deported. I know that’s not a joke.. not have I EVER laughed at that. The meme I posted/was talking about was of him being writing with a feather pen. Sorry if I offended anyone. But it’s no excuse to laugh at someone’s addiction let alone their OD.” She went on: "Lastly, I wasn’t making fun on [sic] anything having to do with deportation or even anything against him. I was laughing at who the f—k knew 21 was British? Literally no one. That’s it. It doesn’t go deeper than that. I’m sorry if I upset people truly."

Has hating gone too far, people? Is finger-pointing being cloaked as political correctness or is Demi really at fault?
