Olivia Wilde is among the celebrities who are talking about the Ukraine invasion, but she got dragged on Twitter.
Actress Olivia Wilde is not a fan-favorite right now.
Here’s what happened. Just like any other person today, the actress hopped on social media, and shared something she thought it would be relatable. In this case, a poem.
But the poem, called “We Lived Happily During the War,” had been first shared by actress Sarah Sophie Flicker, who added that it was actually written by an Ukrainian author. She captioned it: “Ilya Kaminsky was born in Odesa, Ukraine. He wrote this poem in 2013. My heart is with my Ukrainian loved ones and the beautiful country of Ukraine.”
And Wilde re-shared the poem on her Instagram Stories, along with two other short videos. Now Twitter is dragging Olivia Wilde for her views on Ukraine, because she’s reportedly blaming America for not doing enough.
Check out some of the tweets:

The amount hate I’m seeing for Olivia Wilde, just because she posted a poem on her Instagram makes me feel like we kind of deserve WW3 to obliterate us all 🙄

I don’t understand how people can focus on canceling Olivia Wilde who just posted a poem about an important topic which CLEARLY none of you care about. wake up. read the news. and check your priorities.

while you all are trying to cancel Olivia Wilde again, look at what’s going on in the world. Get your priorities straight, it’s embarrassing.
