Khaby Lame shuts down critics after posting anti-racism message to Instagram Instagram: khaby00TikTok star Khaby Lame is unbothered by users who unfollowed him on Instagram after getting upset at an anti-racist message he posted to the platform. Khaby Lame is one of the most popular content creators on TikTok right now. Hot on the heels of Charli D\u2019Amelio (the most-followed individual on the app), Lame boasts over 114 million followers and has a slew of humorous videos destroying \u201clife hacks\u201d to show for it. While he\u2019s an increasingly popular influencer, he\u2019s seen a few angry fans unfollow him over on Instagram, where he has garnered an equally impressive 48 million followers. The reason for this exodus appears to stem from an anti-racist message he posted to his Instagram stories, which included the phrase: \u201cSay no to racism.\u201d Khaby Lame responds to backlash over anti-racist post Apparently, this message prompted some of his fans to turn tail and take back their follow \u2014 but Khaby isn\u2019t bothered by it. He hit back at their reaction in another post where he urged his fanbase to create a positive impact on the world. \u201cI\u2019m seeing a lot of comments where people say: I unfollow you because you did this video,\u201d he began. \u201cI don\u2019t mind guys, we are almost in 2022 and people still use racism because they have nothing to do in their life. Be happy, follow your dream and save the planet.\u201d \u201cYou can also unfollow me,\u201d he continued. \u201cI don\u2019t care about the numbers, I care about your hearts! If you do think of something new, do it right and in a positive way!\u201d Khaby then directed his followers to a charity they could donate to, instead of \u201cwasting time writing negative comments criticizing.\u201d It seems that Khaby is turning a negative moment into a positive opportunity for people to give back and help others, paying no heed to follower count and instead focusing on making a difference in wake of the backlash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
