We need to protect all people, especially children, and stop the violence for good." While some followers appreciated her stance for its humanity, others criticized her for not using her massive platform to take a definitive position on such a critical issue. Critics argued that with her following, a post from Gomez could indeed "change the world," countering her claim that "a post won't."
