Kim Kardashian slammed over ‘tone deaf’ Instagram post

The reality TV star and cosmetic mogul joined her famous family in sharing a message on Instagram – and it’s sparked backlash among fans.

Kardashian fans have slammed what they call a “disgusting and tone deaf” post shared by several members of the famous family.

In an Instagram show of unity, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, along with famous momager Kris Jenner, called for “cancelling” Fourth of July celebrations, reports The Sun.

In response to the recent Supreme Court ruling that upturned Roe vs. Wade, thus limiting abortion access for women in the country, the family called for an end to the American holiday.

Online, the reality show family members shared a note that said: “4th of July has been cancelled due to a shortage of independence. Sincerely, Women.”

While the stars were mostly praised for their message, some slammed the family for politicising the holiday – while still using it as a day for special “deals and discounts” on their own merchandise.

One fan commented: “Anyone else find this disgusting and tone deaf? Disappointed to be a fan.”

“‘F**k 4th of July. Anywhoosie … here’s my 4th of July sale!’” another person posted sarcastically.

“Money is the motive, they care about nothing else,” one person said, while another added, “They’re so hypocritical with everything.”

And one follower doubted their sentiment: “I just KNOW they’re secretly celebrating and just not posting about it, like they did when Tristan threw that 4th of July party back in 2020.”
