"Over the years, social media has often been flooded with memes portraying Brown as a homophobe. The posts, which typically involved users adding fake anti-LGBTQ+ quotes on to images of the star, are all part of the "Millie Bobby Brown is homophobic" meme that first appeared in 2018 and led to her shutting her X account. She has not returned to the platform since, except to tweet "Hi, I missed you," the following year."
""Can I just say, it's 2022 and we don't have to label things," she explained. "I think what's really nice about Will's character is that he's just a human being going through his own personal demons and issues. "So many kids out there don't know, and that's OK. That's OK to not know. And that's OK not to label things.""
A parody X/Twitter account named Drop Pop posted a satirical claim that Millie Bobby Brown donated $1,000,000 (£750,000) to the LGBTQ+ community and supposedly wrote, "I hope they find a cure." The account's bio states that all content is satirical and not factual, and no official reports confirm any such donation or statement. Social media has repeatedly circulated memes portraying Brown as homophobic since 2018, which prompted her to shut her X account. Brown has publicly supported LGBTQ+ people, denounced bullying, and said it is acceptable for characters and people not to label their sexuality.
