None of us are perfect, and this isn\u2019t about being better than anyone else. It\u2019s simply about being intentional with what we allow to influence our hearts and minds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Warner said that, the older she gets, the more she has realized that the media she watches shows up in how she will \u201cthink, speak and live.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Within hours, Warner claimed that she received an onslaught of \u201chateful messages.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI just wanna say \u2026 the amount of hateful messages that I have received over speaking on my value system has really surprised me,\u201d Warner wrote in a follow-up post on Thursday, responding to a fan\u2019s comment that her opinion is allegedly why her \u201cass gets left out of things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The influencer continued, \u201cI want to be clear about something: sharing my personal convictions is not the same as condemning anyone else. I\u2019ve always wanted this page to be a place where women can connect, encourage one another and have honest conversation. That doesn\u2019t require us to agree on everything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">While Warner is open to productive debates with her online community, she does not plan to \u201cchange [her] beliefs\u201d just to gain approval from outside sources.<\/p>\n<div id=\"news-block\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form  \">\n\t<br \/>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/themes\/us-weekly\/assets\/img\/newsletter-bg-wide.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"newsletter-form__background background-wide\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"newsletter-signup__success\" aria-live=\"polite\">\n<h3>Thank You!<\/h3>\n<p>You have successfully subscribed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cMy values are not determined by what\u2019s popular, and I don\u2019t base my belief system on not being \u2018left out,\u2019\u201d she stated. \u201cEven though being left out is not a good feeling to anyone.
