Adam also added the text he wrote on FB to his instagram from yesterday: adamlambert I realize that there are many different schools of thought frequented by people following me on social media. EVERYONE is entitled to their opinions and beliefs. Including me. This is MY Instagram page where I share my experiences and feelings. If you don't agree with something, that's perfectly ok with me- but I'm not going to refrain from being me, and no one is forcing you to either. http://instagr.am/p/BICJZesDhec What happened to cause this "explanation"? I mean I am sure there were comments attacking him (I haven't checked) but to the point that Adam was bullied into this defensive-assertive post? Was there anything in the media? All I saw was high praise for Adam's statement in the media..on my Twitter high praise

I don't exactly know. Haven't read all the comments. He did get a lot of reactions on his political posts about the shootings and the Black Lives Matter posts. Also on the media articles about Queen and the WATC use by HeWhoCannot amed a lot of people aren't agreeing. Maybe it was just enough for him. Could also be he had a few drinks and filter was lower than without those. It was late for him when he posted this. Maybe the barrier was a bit lower as well. He still states his message very eloquently though and I think hardly anyone can disagree with this message.

We all know he doesn't like it when people tell him what to do. Some recent comments on that instagram that might triggered it (before Adam changed the description):
lix_woody HeWhoCannot amed supports gays and gay marriage, good try
mistermarkymark Oh please. Donald HeWhoCannot amed has said many controversial things, but not about gays. Heck. He was one of the first people out against the NC bathroom law.
marcigregg @adamlambert I've loved you since the very first time I heard you. Please don't use your voice to divide and insinuate hate. Instead become more educated in what you're saying. DT hasn't said anything negative or derogatory about gays or the gay community. Instead you should look up the other candidate and see what she has to say.
toh62015 Adam, please don't divide your fan base with political rhetoric. toh62015 Your career is taking off, please...please, leave politics out of it. toh62015 Adam, you preached about checking boxes, I love looking forward to anything new with your name attached to it...except politics. Keep your fan base. Leave well enough alone.
jmdesi2000 Adam I thought you were smarter than thus. Do you think the liberals accepted LGTB. They are sneaks.
sammiestarr87 I love queen and Adam are giving the intelligent @realdonaldhewhocannot amed the attention he deserves . So much free publicity lol you played right into it . @adamlambert just join the winning side. Democrats really don't like you.
rebeccawuthphoto This is about as productive as saying all gay men are promiscuous and have hiv. Such a broad and untrue statement. So disappointing.

They might not be "vile," but they're pretty much telling him his ideas are wrong and that he shouldn't express them. And that's all the political discussion I'll get into, lol.

And IMO, this person alone deserves his comment! The name implies a fan, but I really hope he blocked this person. No IG should have this Spam! toh62015 Adam, please don't divide your fan base with political rhetoric. toh62015 Your career is taking off, please...please, leave politics out of it. toh62015 Adam, you preached about checking boxes, I love looking forward to anything new with your name attached to it...except politics.

Political opinions are always touchy subjects!

There are some things that really need to be said and this is one of them.

I'll bet what he really wanted to set was "if you're a republican, why the fuck are you even my fan?" And I think he didn't. His speech in the US was clear enough. Doesn't matter which label you put on yourself. We are all humans. We might not agree always with each other, but I don't think he would ever exclude a fan for their political believes.
