In case you’re new here, Chris Pratt has been called out by fans many, many times before.
The Tomorrow War star has been called out for insensitive jokes , the clothes he’s worn , and most recently for a viral post in which he thanked his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, for giving him a “healthy” daughter.
While the post seemed innocent at first, many fans took the compliment as a dig at Chris’ first wife, Anna Faris, with whom he shares son Jack, 9.
As fans may recall, Jack was born premature and has resulting health problems.
Back in June, Chris reflected on life as a semi “canceled” actor.
“You don’t ever wanna get caught complaining or anything. ’Cause I have so many blessings. I consider everything a blessing truly in my life,” Chris told Men’s Health at the time. “[But] why are they coming after me?”
“I said something like, ‘Find someone who looks at you the way my wife looks at me.’ And then I gave her some [expletive] in the thing and said, ‘But I love you. I’m so thankful for my wife—she gave me a beautiful, healthy daughter,'” he explained.
“And then a bunch of articles came out and said, ‘That’s so cringeworthy.'”
“‘I can’t believe Chris Pratt would thank her for a healthy daughter when his first child was born premature. That’s such a dig at his ex-wife.'”
“And I’m like, that is [expletive] up. My son’s gonna read that one day. He’s nine. And it’s etched in digital stone. It really [expletive] bothered me, dude. I cried about it. I was like, I hate that these blessings in my life are—to the people close to me—a real burden,” he added.
While this controversy has blown over, many fans were disappointed to see the actor reshare an article about his latest show “Terminal List” and how it’s “defying woke critics.”
“Chris Pratt now linking articles… that scream about “woke critics.” So I hope we can, once and for all, quite pretending he’s not a bigoted garbage human,” tweeted one critic.
“He’s implicitly endorsing the culture-wars framing,” explained one Twitter user.
“When I hear ‘woke’ as an insult (when it’s the opposite of asleep at the wheel), I know that person is a waste of my time because they’re ignorant, probably racist, almost always white, and very out of touch and culty,” added another.
