This past summer, Yahoo! Entertainment breathlessly reported the outrage over actor Chris Pratt’s Gadsden’s flag t-shirt. The supposed outraged stemmed from four — four! — tweets (including one that was deleted).
Well, The Independent has clearly learned from Yahoo!’s embarrassment, because they’ve found a lot more evidence to support their hit piece on Pratt, which is based on his good-natured ribbing of his wife Katherine Schwarzenegger:

The Independent smelled a scandal, and they got to work manufacturing one:

“People.” Meaning “a handful of randos who have literally nothing better to do than smack Chris Pratt for being a typical husband.” Guess they have that in common with The Independent.

But “people.”
And you know what? Even if “people” were pissed off about this, that’s on them.

Y'all suck. Mind your business. Lighten up. Go outside.
It must suck to be perpetually offended. https://t.co/ZJhRcKlklg
