Karla Sofía Gascón recently opened up about deleting X and netizens have expressed mixed reactions. So, what made her speak on the matter?

The Spanish actress has been subjected to online hate and criticism over her resurfaced tweets where she was spotted making controversial remarks. Shortly after being nominated for the 'best actress for her film Emelia Perez' Oscar entry, critics dug into her old posts and began canceling her on socio-cultural grounds.

On Friday, Karla Sofía reported to the Hollywood reporter about her deleting X as she refuses to be a victim of the online hate campaigns. She also claimed that it is affecting her family and her. She reportedly apologized for offending anyone in the past or the future.

She began her report with:

"I’m sorry, but I can no longer allow this campaign of hate and misinformation to affect neither my family nor me anymore, so at their request I am closing my account on X."

And continued:

"I am a human being who also made, makes and will make mistakes from which I will learn. I am not perfect. Taking my words out of context or manipulating them to hurt me is something I am not responsible for."
"Forgive me because I keep going from one side to the other and I cannot be responding to every single thing you bring up to try to sink me."

She concluded her statement with “NAM MYOHO RENGE KYO,” a Buddhist saying for, "Devotion to the Mystic Law of the Lotus Sutra.”
