Sexist Facebook Group Takes Credit for Forcing Kelly Marie Tran Off Instagram
Kelly Marie Tran deleted all of her posts from Instagram last week after trolls harassed her for months. A Facebook group called Down With Disney's Treatment of Franchises and Its Fanboys is claiming responsibility for forcing Tran offline. The group was previously removed from Facebook after creating an event called Give Black Panther a Rotten Score on Rotten Tomatoes. The group, seemingly motivated by racism and sexism, made a statement that has now been deleted. "I along with many others (some of whom I inspired) helped force Kelly Marie Tran from Instagram. And it was bloody glorious!" said a post by Down With Disney's Treatment of Franchises and Its Fanboys, captured by ScreenRant. Tran has gained over 50,000 new followers since quitting Instagram. Costars have expressed their support for Tran on social media as well.
