Vine star Nash Grier recently sent out a pretty hateful video, and other stars are now responding to the since-deleted Vine. The teenager -- who boasts 8.7 million followers on the popular app -- sent out a video that featured a short clip of a PSA with people say that HIV testing is not a "gay thing" to which Nash replied: "Yes it is," and hurled a gay slur which we are choosing not to repeat.
Though the Vine has been deleted, it caught the attention of YouTuber Tyler Oakley who had this to say:
"Promoting a false stereotype that HIV only affects gays to his millions of teen fans is extremely dangerous. Call me and people like me 'fag' all you want, but spreading false information about deadly diseases is next level."
Modern Family's Ariel Winter also sent out a tweet expressing her disappointment that read:
"What I'm reading in the media lately makes me truly disgusted. @Nashgrier is what's wrong with this generation. That video was truly awful. Unfortunately, my generation will forgive @Nashgrier because he seems "cute" or "funny" (not to me). Ignorance is really all he displays."
Nash has since apologized, sending out this message:
"I apologize for anything negative I've said towards gays and for that matter anyone. I was young, ignorant, stupid, and in a bad place. I've moved on and learned from my mistakes and am truly sorry to anyone I have offended. I have nothing against anyone or anything that promotes equality. Sorry again."
