Henry Winkler Gets Backlash After Tweeting About Divided Country

Henry Winkler received a bit of backlash after he tweeted what seemed to be a call for unity in a divided country. “We are So divided as a country … only a cataclysmic Event , that makes us depend on one another again , can bring us back together,” the former Happy Days actor wrote in a tweet.

That’s when people all over Twitter reminded the actor that the U.S. had already endured “cataclysmic events.” One fan responds, “I love that you are this idealistic, but over half 1 million Americans have died of Covid. If that didn’t work, nothing will.”

Another fan writes, “The last one was 9/11. I don’t think we should do that again.” A third adds, “What exactly are you wanting, a super volcano? We’ve had a killer virus, brush fires that burned through Australia and the US. Huge heat waves, ice storms, mud slides, tsunamis, hurricanes, giant F5 tornados.”

While there were plenty of fans that continued the same, there were also many who knew the point he was trying to make. “Henry Winkler is one of the nicest celebrities I’ve ever met. A genuinely good person. He means well with this tweet, so give him a break,” one person writes.
