Content Warning: This article may contain sensitive content for certain readers. Hossler, who boasts over 8.9 million followers on TikTok, is facing outrage from critics across social media after two tweets of his were discovered that appeared to endorse racism and homophobia. One of the uncovered tweets, from 2017, was a quote-retweet of a post that criticized racism, which stated that torch-carrying members of the KKK wanted to \u201cintimidate community members at a Black prayer service.\u201d \u201cWhat does the world expect when we are all encouraged to do what makes us happy?\u201d Hossler replied to the post. Another uncovered tweet of Hossler\u2019s, from 2018, has been widely deemed as homophobic by critics, with Hossler writing, \u201cPlease don\u2019t be confused, true Christians should not ACCEPT the LGBT community, we are supposed to love them and be there!\u201d Unsurprisingly, Hossler\u2019s divisive tweets have since sparked controversy across the net, prompting his sister to speak out on the scandal via a broadcast on TikTok. \u201cI cannot sit here and watch videos of somebody spreading lies about my brother and let it lie,\u201d she said. \u201cIf you do not know somebody personally, and have a relationship with them, you cannot judge intentions or character.\u201d View this post on Instagram \u201cJaden is the kindest, sweetest, most loving, gentle human being you will ever meet in your life,\u201d she added. \u201cHe has a heart of pure gold, and the reason he has made it to the point he\u2019s at today is because he works his butt off for it.\u201d Hossler\u2019s sister continued her defense by claiming that she \u201ccompletely disavowed white supremacy\u201d and claimed she knew her brother would do the same if he had been with her during her broadcast.
