Agree. Fans (peasants) wants celebrities to stand up for them, no matter what the political view is, and when they mess up they get all mad. No shit, theyre celebrities. Not politicians or activists.

You say this as though politicians and activists represent the best interests of the public

That's why politicians are held accountable or should be held accountable and take responsibility or judged for their actions/beliefs.

That is the basic notion of politics. Politicians don't have, should be allowed to have, or not be judged when they do have a free will when it cones to how they represent publics interests.

Unfortunately most political spheres are corrupt, to varying degrees.
