In November of 2017, shortly after the second season premiere of Stranger Things, an account going by the name “Kelsey Fiona” tweeted that Millie Bobby Brown had ripped off her hijab at the airport. As reactions to Brown’s deactivation seem to prove, in the actress’ case, she became a target because she’s the last person who would deserve a crosshair on her back. There is a long history of the internet slinging mud at celebrities at the peak of their popularity. Aside from her acting career, she’s also known for being a genuinely good person she runs a (currently inactive) anti-bullying twitter account, has displayed her support for GLAAD’s Together movement, and has been called wise beyond her years. Her social media following and activity reflected her icon status - with over 16 million followers flocking to her every Instagram post. As part of a wave of young fashion icons, Brown became the youngest person to ever feature on Time Magazine‘s “100 Most Influential People“ list.

In 2016, Brown broke out as Eleven in Netflix’s Stranger Things, a part that earned her nominations for the Screen Actors Guild and Emmy awards, and a shower of praise. These memes are not new, unfortunately, and have been have been circling Twitter since late 2017.

Edits of Brown’s social media pictures are paired with hateful comments and the hashtag #TakeDownMillieBobbyBrown. The meme is essentially people attributing violent, homophobic language - in particular, the use of the slur “faggot” - to Brown and saying that she attacked them or tried to run them over with her car. Unlike more direct attacks, these memes originated from people who assumed that the false accusations would not leave their “insular” Twitter communities.
