Congratulations again to #GuillermoDelToro. They\u2019ll have to rename the #Oscars and celebrate them in #Tlalmanalco instead of #Hollywood. How many years in a row now? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet sarcastically suggested moving the Oscars to a Mexican town due to repeated Mexican wins. Critics viewed it as dismissive of Latin American achievement in film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Justification of Anti-Muslim Views Using History<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cCu\u00e1ntas veces m\u00e1s la historia tendr\u00e1 que expulsar a los moros de Espa\u00f1a\u2026 todav\u00eda no nos hemos dado cuenta de lo que significa esta amenaza de civilizaciones que constantemente ataca a la libertad y coherencia del individuo. No se trata de racismo, se trata del islam.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How many more times must history expel the Moors from Spain\u2026 we still haven\u2019t realized what this threat to civilizations means, constantly attacking liberty and individual coherence. It\u2019s not about racism; it\u2019s about Islam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gasc\u00f3n referred to the historical expulsion of Muslims from Spain to defend her stance. She framed her views as cultural concern, though many labeled it as anti-Muslim rhetoric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Criticism of Adele\u2019s Physical Appearance<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u2018\u2018Pas\u00f3 el COVID y se pas\u00f3 con las mangas o pas\u00f3 por el quir\u00f3fano y no le quitaron la piel de los brazos. @Adele\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She got through COVID and went overboard with the sleeves, or she went through surgery and they didn\u2019t remove the skin from her arms. @Adele<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet about Adele was interpreted as making fun of her body, especially in relation to her weight loss. It was seen as unnecessary and disrespectful, prompting criticism for body-shaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Accusation of Bias in the Oscars<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cHace ya tiempo que no s\u00e9 si en los #oscars se premia a los colectivos o a la cinematograf\u00eda. Si se premia al color, al sexo y la ideolog\u00eda o a los t\u00e9cnicos y artistas sin fronteras. Pareciera que hay que cumplir un cupo \u00e9tnico, algo que es evidente ya en las mismas obras.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I no longer know if the #Oscars are awarding collectives or cinematography. Whether they reward color, sex, and ideology or technical artists without borders. It seems like they have to fill an ethnic quota, something that\u2019s already obvious in the works themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gasc\u00f3n questioned whether the Oscars were based on artistic merit or identity categories. The post was viewed as dismissive of diversity efforts and drew criticism for its tone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Insensitive Tweet About COVID-19 and Chinese Products<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcc5 February 25, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTanto cient\u00edfico en el mundo fabricante de bombas, tanto erudito construyendo objetos para el espacio, tantas f\u00e1bricas de medicamentos y no hay nadie que se ponga con una mierda china.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al final todo un show tremendo para una nueva variante de la gripe, aviar o coronavirus.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So many scientists in the world making bombs, so many scholars building things for space, so many drug factories, and no one can deal with some Chinese crap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, a huge show for a new flu variant, avian or coronavirus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet dismissed the seriousness of COVID-19 and used derogatory language to describe Chinese products. It was labeled as offensive, dismissive of a global health crisis, and racially insensitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Devaluing Religious Followers’ Intelligence<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcc5 April 9, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHay, m\u00e1s o menos, entre musulmanes y cristianos, unos 4700 millones de creyentes en el mundo; Einsteins, Galileos, Davichis, S\u00f3crates, Platones, Asimoves, Hawkings… solo uno. La masa no define ni lo v\u00e1lido ni la inteligencia ni el conocimiento, lo \u00fanico que define es cantidad.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are, more or less, between Muslims and Christians, about 4.7 billion believers in the world; Einsteins, Galileos, Davichis, Socrates, Platos, Asimovs, Hawkings… just one. Mass does not define validity, intelligence, or knowledge, it only defines quantity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet implied that most religious believers lack intellectual value. It was perceived as disrespectful toward religious individuals and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Personal Attack on Selena Gomez<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cEs una rata rica que se hace la pobre desgraciada siempre que puede y nunca dejar\u00e1 de fastidiar a su exnovio y a su esposa.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She\u2019s a rich rat who pretends to be a poor victim whenever she can and will never stop bothering her ex-boyfriend and his wife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet was widely believed to target Selena Gomez, accusing her of playing the victim and interfering with her ex\u2019s relationship. Many saw it as contributing to personal harassment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Racial Stereotypes About Chinese COVID Vaccine<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cLa vacuna china, aparte del chip obligatorio, viene con dos rollitos de primavera, un gato que mueve la mano, 2 flores de pl\u00e1stico, un farolillo desplegable, 3 l\u00edneas de tel\u00e9fono y un euro para tu primera compra controlada. \ud83c\udde8\ud83c\uddf3\u26e9\ufe0f\ud83c\udf5c\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chinese vaccine, apart from the mandatory chip, comes with two spring rolls, a cat that waves its hand, two plastic flowers, a collapsible lantern, three phone lines, and one euro for your first controlled purchase. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This post mocked the Chinese vaccine by listing exaggerated items linked to Asian stereotypes. It was seen as promoting conspiracy theories and using racial humor during a public health crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Offensive Statement About George Floyd<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cRealmente creo que a muy pocos les import\u00f3 nunca George Floyd, un drogata estafador, pero su muerte ha servido para volver a poner de manifiesto que hay quienes todav\u00eda consideran a los negros monos sin derechos y qui\u00e9nes consideran que la polic\u00eda es asesina. Todos errados.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I truly think very few people ever cared about George Floyd, a junkie and swindler, but his death has shown again that some still consider Black people to be monkeys without rights and others think police are murderers. They\u2019re all wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the tweet claimed to reject racism, it used derogatory language and generalized both activists and police. Critics saw it as dismissive of systemic racism and insensitive to Floyd\u2019s death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Response to Terror Attack in France<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cNuevo atentado en Francia, decapitados en Niza por uno de estos retrasados seguidores de Al\u00e1. Cu\u00e1ntas veces tendremos que expulsar de Europa a estos energ\u00famenos hasta darnos cuenta que su religi\u00f3n es INCOMPATIBLE con los valores occidentales. No escarmentamos. Gracias Erdogan.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New attack in France, beheadings in Nice by one of these retarded followers of Allah. How many times will we have to expel these madmen from Europe until we realize that their religion is INCOMPATIBLE with Western values. We do not learn. Thank you Erdogan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet used slurs and blamed Islam for violence, generalizing all Muslims. It was strongly condemned for hate speech and reinforcing stereotypes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11. Stereotyping Muslims and Arabic Language<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cPerd\u00f3n, \u00bfEs mi impresi\u00f3n o cada vez hay m\u00e1s musulmanes en Espa\u00f1a? Cada que voy a recoger a mi hija al colegio hay m\u00e1s hembras con el pelo tapado y el fald\u00f3n hasta los talones. Lo mismo el a\u00f1o que viene en vez de ingl\u00e9s tenemos que dar \u00e1rabe… y un cordero. \ud83e\udd37\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2640\ufe0f\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sorry, is it just me or are there more Muslims in Spain every day? Every time I pick up my daughter from school there are more women with their hair covered and skirts down to their heels. Next year instead of English, we\u2019ll probably have to learn Arabic… and bring a lamb. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gasc\u00f3n described Muslim women in stereotypical terms and implied Arabic could replace English in schools. The tweet was criticized as xenophobic and mocking of religious customs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12. Sarcastic Post About Islam and Women<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cEl islam es maravilloso, sin ning\u00fan tipo de machismo. A la mujer se la respeta, y cuando se la respeta mucho le dejan un cuadrito en la cara para que se le vean los ojos y la boca, pero si se porta bien. Aunque ellas se visten as\u00ed por gusto. Qu\u00e9 ASCO M\u00c1S PROFUNDO DE HUMANIDAD.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Islam is marvelous, without any machismo. Women are respected, and when they\u2019re really respected, they\u2019re left with a square on their face to show their eyes and mouth\u2014but only if they behave. Although they dress like that by choice. What a DEEPLY DISGUSTING THING FROM HUMANITY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet, paired with a photo, sarcastically described women’s roles in Islam. It was widely condemned as Islamophobic and disrespectful to religious dress practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

13. Dismissal of LGBTQ Representation<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cMe importa un pimiento qui\u00e9n gane #LCDLFMEXICO #LACASADELOXXO #LTIENDADELF como se llame. No s\u00e9 qui\u00e9n es Wendy ni Windy ni Wondy… es m\u00e1s, estoy hasta la madre del marketing, de los communities y del abuso del uso LGBT TRANS de ciertos personajes y medios para obtener relevancia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I couldn\u2019t care less who wins #LCDLFMEXICO #LACASADELOXXO #LTIENDADELF or whatever it\u2019s called. I don\u2019t know who Wendy, Windy, or Wondy is… I\u2019m fed up with marketing, social media managers, and the abuse of LGBT TRANS issues by certain people and media to gain relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet criticized the use of trans and LGBT identities in media marketing. Many viewed it as dismissive and disrespectful toward LGBTQ+ representation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

14. Response to Criticism and Support from Mexico<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Response<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cQuiero dar las gracias a todo M\u00e9xico y a los mexicanos, s\u00e9 perfectamente que todo este odio injustificado no parte de ustedes, simplemente son cuatro gatos con muchoss y variados intereses de por medio. Es m\u00e1s, la prueba la van a tener el d\u00eda del estreno con las salas llenas.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to thank all of Mexico and Mexicans. I know very well that this unjustified hate is not coming from you. It\u2019s just a few people with many different interests involved. In fact, the proof will be on the day of the premiere in full theaters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this message, Gasc\u00f3n thanked Mexican supporters and said that criticism was coming from a small group with other motives. She expressed confidence in public support for her film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15. Statement About Humor and Intelligence<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cCada d\u00eda estoy m\u00e1s convencida de que mi sentido del humor, mi sarcasmo, iron\u00eda, exageraci\u00f3n, juego a la contra, volteo de situaci\u00f3n e incluso re\u00edrme de m\u00ed misma jugando a ser otra, solo est\u00e1 a la altura de seres realmente avanzados o de inteligencia superior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As\u00ed que si se r\u00eden conmigo ya saben lo que son.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every day I\u2019m more convinced that my sense of humor\u2014my sarcasm, irony, exaggeration, contrarian play, twisting of situations, and even laughing at myself while pretending to be someone else\u2014is only understood by truly advanced beings or people with superior intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So if you laugh with me, now you know what you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this tweet, Gasc\u00f3n suggested that her humor and sarcasm require a higher level of intelligence to appreciate. Some interpreted this as a self-congratulatory remark, while others viewed it as a defense of her controversial tone and style online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

16. Islam as an \u201cInfection\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcc5 July 2, 2016<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEl islam se est\u00e1 convirtiendo en un foco de infecci\u00f3n para la humanidad que hay que curar urgentemente.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Islam is becoming a hotbed of infection for humanity that urgently needs to be cured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcc5 August 24, 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOccidente deber\u00eda prohibir el islam y cualquier manifestaci\u00f3n pol\u00edtica o religiosa que atente contra los derechos humanos y los valores universales. Aunque resulte parad\u00f3jico, no hay otro remedio para hacer cumplir las reglas que tener reglas y hacer que se cumplan.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The West should ban Islam and any political or religious manifestation that violates human rights and universal values. Paradoxically, there is no other way to enforce rules than to have rules and enforce them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This post directly called for banning Islam in Western countries. It was widely denounced as Islamophobic and authoritarian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

18. Religion as a Threat to European Values<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcc5 September 6, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHasta que no prohibamos religiones que chocan frontalmente contra los valores europeos y atentan contra los derechos humanos, como el islam, amparadas en la libertad de culto, no acabaremos con una parte del gran problema que tenemos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La fe manipula a quien a la fe se agarra.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until we ban religions that go against European values and violate human rights, such as Islam, under the protection of freedom of worship, we will not end part of the huge problem we face. Faith manipulates those who cling to faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet framed Islam as incompatible with European values and called for a ban, again reinforcing harmful generalizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

19. Tweet Linking Immigrants to Crime and Misogyny<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcc5 September 6, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cParece ser que el autor de la violaci\u00f3n es un inmigrante magreb\u00ed que de paso la rob\u00f3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Si en Espa\u00f1a sigue existiendo un machismo aberrante en ciertos sectores de la poblaci\u00f3n, imaginen lo que nos viene de pa\u00edses en los que la mujer vale una mierda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As\u00ed Europa sin control.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It seems that the perpetrator of the rape is a Moroccan immigrant who also robbed her in passing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If in Spain there is still an aberrant machismo in certain sectors of the population, imagine what comes to us from countries where women are worth nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So Europe is out of control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet generalizes immigrants from Muslim-majority countries as violent and misogynistic. It was widely condemned for being xenophobic and inflammatory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

20. Controversial Comment About Hitler and Jewish People<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcc5 March 18, 2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEsto es lo de siempre, \u201clos negros esclavos y la mujer a la cocina\u201d. Pero es mi opini\u00f3n y hay que respetarla. No entiendo tanta guerra mundial contra Hitler, \u00e9l simplemente ten\u00eda su opini\u00f3n de los jud\u00edos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En fin, as\u00ed va el mundo.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the same old story, \u201cblack slaves and women in the kitchen.\u201d But it’s my opinion and it must be respected. I do not understand so much world war against Hitler, he simply had his opinion of the Jews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, that’s how the world goes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet was widely condemned for appearing to downplay both racism and the Holocaust. By suggesting that Hitler’s actions were simply based on \u201can opinion,\u201d the post was labeled as offensive, historically ignorant, and deeply insensitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

21. Oscars Criticism with Offensive Tone<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cCada vez m\u00e1s los #Oscars se parecen a una entrega de premios de cine independiente y reivindicativo, no sab\u00eda si estaba viendo un festival afrokoreano, una manifestaci\u00f3n BlackLivesMatter o el 8M. Aparte una gala fea fea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les falt\u00f3 darle un premio al corto de mi primo que es cojo.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More and more, the #Oscars look like an independent and activist film awards ceremony. I didn\u2019t know if I was watching an Afro-Korean festival, a BlackLivesMatter protest, or the March 8 women\u2019s march. Also, it was an ugly, ugly gala.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They only missed giving an award to my cousin\u2019s short film\u2014he\u2019s lame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet mocked the Oscars for focusing on diversity and activism. It used dismissive language about cultural and social justice movements and included an ableist slur. The post received backlash for being offensive and out of touch with inclusion efforts in the entertainment industry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

22. Defense of Artistic Interpretation Through Picasso Analogy<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\u201c\u00bfSe imaginan ustedes que a Picasso, despu\u00e9s de pintar el Guernica, otros pintores contempor\u00e1neos le hubieran criticado por no ser del Pa\u00eds Vasco, por apropiarse del dolor de las v\u00edctimas, por no reflejar la realidad con unas figuras totalmente distorsionadas, etc\u00e9tera? \u00bfRid\u00edculo verdad?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you imagine if Picasso, after painting Guernica, had been criticized by other contemporary artists for not being from the Basque Country, for appropriating the victims’ pain, for not depicting reality with completely distorted figures, etc.? Ridiculous, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this tweet, Gasc\u00f3n defended artistic freedom by comparing criticism of her work to hypothetical backlash against Picasso’s Guernica. She implied that criticism based on identity or representation is misplaced. The comment was viewed by some as an oversimplification of concerns around cultural appropriation and representation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

23. Mocking Catalans in Reference to NASA News<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Following NASA\u2019s press conference\u2014there\u2019s water on Mars. Woah! Good thing they\u2019re not Catalans, they would\u2019ve kept it secret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet mocked Catalans by implying they are secretive or selfish. It was widely criticized for being discriminatory and unnecessarily targeting an ethnic and cultural group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They invited a Catalan independence supporter to a wedding, and he ended up eating alone in a corner\u2014he couldn\u2019t stand seeing the food being shared with everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tweet portrayed Catalan independence supporters as selfish and antisocial. It used a stereotype to insult political ideology, drawing backlash for promoting hate based on regional identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

25. Hateful Remarks Toward Catalan Nationalists<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Emilia P\u00e9rez star Karla Sof\u00eda Gasc\u00f3n deleted her X (formerly Twitter) account after past controversial posts resurfaced and sparked backlash. As of Friday, January 31, 2025, her account was no longer accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gasc\u00f3n, who became the first openly transgender actress to be nominated for a Best Actress Academy Award, issued an apology the day before deactivating her account. In the statement, the 52-year-old said she was \u201cdeeply sorry\u201d for any harm her previous posts may have caused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI wanted to acknowledge the conversation around my past social media posts that caused hurt,\u201d Gasc\u00f3n wrote. \u201cAs someone from a marginalized community, I knew this suffering all too well and was deeply sorry to those I caused pain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her apology followed journalist Sarah Hagi\u2019s release of several screenshots showing Gasc\u00f3n\u2019s past tweets, which were later deleted. The posts included remarks about Muslims, George Floyd, diversity, and the Oscars, which drew criticism for being offensive and insensitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In one tweet from 2021, Gasc\u00f3n reportedly commented on the Oscars, writing in a translated post: \u201cMore and more the #Oscars looked like a ceremony for independent and protest films. I didn\u2019t know if I was watching an Afro-Korean festival, a Black Lives Matter demonstration or the 8M. Apart from that, an ugly, ugly gala.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another deleted post from 2020 read: \u201cWas it just my impression or were there more Muslims in Spain? Every time I went to pick up my daughter from school, there were more women with their hair covered and skirts down to their heels. Next year instead of English we\u2019ll have to teach Arabic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tweets were criticized online, with one user pointing out that the volume and consistency of the posts suggested they reflected long-standing views. The user added that they were \u201ccurious how the Emilia P\u00e9rez cast and Academy voters would respond\u201d to the posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The tweets posted by Karla Sof\u00eda Gasc\u00f3n sparked criticism across multiple topics, including religion, race, immigration, and identity. Many of the posts were labeled offensive or inappropriate, leading to public backlash and media coverage. Gasc\u00f3n\u2019s decision to apologize and delete her account followed growing pressure and concern from the public. These tweets remain part of the broader conversation about accountability and the impact of statements made online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
