Given his son’s celebrity status, outraged fans flocked to Jeremy’s latest post to condemn his offensive message.
One fan reminded Jeremy where his platform came from and told the father: “dont forget do thank Justin Bieber this month for your paid bills.”
“No one is going to thank a straight person for the existence of the lgbtq+ community. We’ve always existed, y’all just never knew. Stop spreading dumb s—. You’re a father of one of the biggest pop stars. Act like one,” read another scathing reply.
