NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!Actress Amanda Seyfried said in a newly published interview that she would not apologize for calling Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk "hateful" in an Instagram post shortly after his assassination in September.
According to screenshotsthat circulated online, she commented that Kirk was "hateful" on Instagram and shared a post that read, "You can’t invite violence to the dinner table and be shocked when it starts eating."
Speaking with "Who What Wear" in an interview published Wednesday, the "Mean Girls" actress spoke about the backlash she faced but refused to back down from her original comments.

"I'm not f---ing apologizing for that," Seyfried said. "I mean, for f---'s sake, I commented on one thing. I said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes. What I said was pretty damn factual, and I'm free to have an opinion, of course. Thank God for Instagram. I was able to give some clarity, and it was about getting my voice back because I felt like it had been stolen and recontextualized — which is what people do, of course."
She added how she has to remember to "keep [her] head on" regarding politics.
JAMIE LEE CURTIS CLAIMS HER POSITIVE CHARLIE KIRK COMMENTS AFTER HIS DEATH WERE 'MISTRANSLATED'
"It's always hard to see people who are tricky and harmful have success — like our gorgeous president, the best possible example of that," Seyfried said while sitting in a restaurant with her interviewer. "It's so weird to sit in a civilized restaurant. People are serving us food. You can't unpack it too much, or else you'll go f---ing insane. Like, how is the world still spinning?"

In a comment to Fox News Digital, Turning Point USA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet said Seyfried is free to say what she wants, but "deserved whatever backlash she gets."
"Amanda Seyfried obviously knows nothing about who Charlie Kirk actually was. She’s a victim of her own algorithm and echo chamber. But if your reaction to an innocent husband and father being assassinated in cold blood is to pile on and call him ‘hateful’ instead of offering condolences, or just remaining silent — I know wild concept — then you are the hateful one," Kolvert said.
After the backlash in September, Seyfried wrote in a public post: "We’re forgetting the nuance of humanity. I can get angry about misogyny and racist rhetoric and ALSO very much agree that Charlie Kirk’s murder was absolutely disturbing and deplorable in every way imaginable."

"No one should have to experience this level of violence," she added. "This country is grieving too many senseless and violent deaths and shootings. Can we agree on that at least?"

In her caption to the post, she appeared to address her previous controversy, "I don’t want to add fuel to a fire. I just want to be able to give clarity to something so irresponsibly (but understandably) taken out of context. Spirited discourse- isn’t that what we should be having?"?
