With an astounding 430 million followers at the time of this writing, social media users questioned the idea that her voice lacked influence. They emphasized the substantial reach her platform provides, given her past efforts to address issues such as mental health, gender equality, and the conflict in Ukraine.

Some followers noticed that despite her assertion that a single post cannot change the world, she later shared a message that said, 'Having a sister every day has made me tragically sick. I would do anything for children and innocent lives.'

Although Gomez did condemn the atrocities and violence, expressing a need to 'protect ALL people,' the reactions online, mainly negative, on Monday indicated that a significant portion of her fanbase was dissatisfied with her statement.
