Twitter users jumped on the statement and began dragging Lovato for it. There were many who disregarded Lovato entirely and said her words showed that she was too ill-informed, delusional, and unrealistic to take any meaningful action:
@stormknowlss: "No girl please, you can speak out whatever you want, we appreciate you using your platform but we don't need no songs about it."
Some thought mockery was a better way to prove a point and made jokes at the singer's expense about her arrogance in thinking that a song she sings is going to subdue political turmoil:
@d_lovatoroses: "And what do expect this song of yours to do? End systematic racism? Call out Trump again and state the obvious?"
@flopasaurusex: "I understand the sentiment honey but please leave the studio and go home."
Others suggested to the singer that instead of being in the studio, she should be making a difference in a more tangible way:
@d_lovator: "Girl just open your f**king purse and donate some money... it does a lot more than writing and releasing songs then keeping the proceeds or profit made... like..."
Some stans argued that Lovato was using her talents to make a difference but they were argued away by the vast number who thought the singer's privilege to be blinding her judgment.
