30 Famous People Who Received Public Condemnation Even Though They Did Not Deserve It, As Pointed Out In This Online Thread The "hot coffee" McDonald's lady. The story that I had heard and believed for years was that some woman burnt her tongue a little and sued McDonald's for not marking clearly that their coffee was hot.

When the reality was that McDonald's raised the temperature of their coffee way higher than normal, it spilled on her when getting it in the drive through, and her burns were horrifically severe and she needed skin grafts. She was suing for so much because it literally how much her medical bills cost. But so many people ridiculed her and the case for years.

Edit: people calling me out for saying "higher than boiling point". I just meant that it was really REALLY hot.

For redditors old enough to remember, the young *Home Alone* star got a bunch of hate for being a spoiled brat when he sued to divorce his parents.

Truth of the matter is his father was a physically abusive a*****e, and his parents were going to take the $15-20M he earned from acting and leave Macaulay with nothing.

I don’t recall any hate, just sad story. Big enough news that it made it to my country at the time, all that was said was that he is suing his parents because they were squandering all his money. Even back then it was pointed out his parents only cared which one of them will control the fortune with zero care for Macaulay himself.

On the whole, perhaps, in human history, there is not a single more or less well-known personality who was always, absolutely, one hundred percent received positively. Even, for example, Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Teresa or Pope John Paul II - all of them, at certain stages of their lives, sometimes faced massive disapproval from certain social groups.

But there are people about whom the public steadily formed an attitude - and this attitude just as steadily turned negative. For example, the famous composer Antonio Salieri was innocently harmed by a completely false and far-fetched accusation that he had poisoned his longtime friend Mozart. Well, or at least weaved vile intrigues against a brilliant colleague.

In reality, of course, it wasn't like that. As a twist of fate, during his lifetime, Salieri was much more successful than Mozart. And the talent of the Italian composer was also more than outstanding. And, by the way, it was Salieri who helped Mozart more than once in arranging his concerts and finding customers for musical works.

30 Famous People Who Received Public Condemnation Even Though They Did Not Deserve It, As Pointed Out In This Online Thread Ignaz Philipp Semmelweis

He was a Hungarian physician and scientist, described as the "saviour of mothers". He proposed the practice of washing hands with chlorinated lime solutions in 1847 while working in Vienna General Hospital's First Obstetrical Clinic, where doctors' wards had three times the mortality of midwives' wards.

Some doctors were offended at the suggestion that they should wash their hands and mocked him for it. In 1865 he allegedly suffered a nervous breakdown and was committed to an asylum by his colleagues. In the asylum he was beaten by the guards. He died 14 days later from a gangrenous wound on his right hand that may have been caused by the beating. His findings earned widespread acceptance only years after his death, when Louis Pasteur confirmed the germ theory.

Why is this happening? In fact, discrediting someone's good name is quite simple - both in the old days and today. Fact-checking has never been the forte of most people, and we readily believe in various gossip, no matter how dirty it may seem. In addition, we often do not know all aspects of celebs' life, as well as the reasons that encourage them to commit one act or another, which seems completely unsightly to us from the outside.

"In the old days, of course, it was much easier to discredit the image of any person - after all, information, already incredibly scarce, was almost always transmitted verbally, and at the same time inevitably distorted," says Valery Bolgan, historian and editor-in-chief of the Ukraine-based Intent news agency. "People's rumors spread very quickly, and people had neither the opportunity nor the desire to verify the accuracy of the information."

"Today we are, however, at the other extreme - there is a huge amount of information around us, and we are faced with a lot of fakes and partial fakes, created both by someone's order and out of ignorance. In addition, the authority of leaders of both the mass media and public opinion is gradually falling. It is enough to convict some source of lying at least once for its information to be regularly called into question. In such a situation, it is not surprising that many people are prone to self-deception," Valery Bolgan concludes.

It is sad that young celebrities often become targets for public censure, although their actions are de facto controlled either by their parents or other members of their environment. From Shirley Temple to Macaulay Culkin, from Mickey Rooney to Rebecca Black, just about everyone who achieved big fame at an early age went through it, and not everyone managed to cope with such pressure. Perhaps Shirley Temple did it best of all - but she had to completely change her occupation, leaving Hollywood for big politics.

He was bullied severely in high school for being skinny. He was also sexually abused as a child, so he wrote about his feelings. He was addicted to several drugs before he even turned 17. He did so much for his fans like even with a broken hand he continued to perform, but then the band changed genres went a little less heavy more softer instruments, but the lyrics were just as deep. The loudest fans didn't care they hated it. They bullied the band intensely. In 2006, Chester had a cyberstalker who wouldn't leave him or his family alone, the reasoning she gave when she got caught?

She was a scapegoat. Whatever she did was criticized and slandered.

She was the symbol of royal depravity and everything she did was used to fire the rebellion despite her having next to none influence. When she didn't get kids because her husband didn't know how to duck her, she was blamed. Having girls, blamed for that too, having a boy, still not enough. And she was so young! Her husband too.

Are you kidding me? Shame on the person who put Phelps on this list. This guy is a repeat offender of drunk driving and was once arrested in a town where I used to live. He damn near ran over a good friend of mine who was about to cross the street when she saw his vehicle coming down the road, somwhat erratically, and at a high rate of speed. Because of this, she chose to wait until he passed and this decision almost certainly saved her life as he ran right through the stop sign. Thankfully, police pulled him over soon after before he could kill himself or someone else. And he didn't learn a thing from this incident because he's gone on to do it again while hypocritically lecturing kids on the dangers of DUI. But, because he is who he is, he regularly gets away with a slap on the wrist. Phelps should not be on this list. He should not be celebrated. He should be in jail. *Edited for clarity

I've said this above, but Amber Heard gets a lot of hate - from BP often, too. I don't know the ins and outs of it, so I can't comment properly - but the way she has been villified reminds me a lot of the treatment Anita Hill and Monica Lewinsky in the '90s...

I didn't follow the court case as thoroughly as others but I did watch enough to understand what the hate is about, and I don't disagree that Amber did it to herself. Everyone wants their villain and hero. I believe both Amber and Johnny were horrible to each other in their relationship, and the court just found Amber to be more horrible so she lost the case.

What? The massive racist. Nope. No redemption there. His racist views were so bad that it is believed that he developed a phobia of POCs so severe that he refused to leave the house without an escort just in case he saw one.

So anyone who publicly speaks out about abuse and/or dealing with the effects of trauma make up the majority of this list. It's shameful

only those that speak about abuse from the powerful that control the media. It's almost like it's by design...

Cara Cunningham: the "leave Britney alone" person. She got a lot of s**t for it but she was 15 years ahead of the world.

Yeri from Red Velvet got hate from netizens for joining Red Velvet late and for crying at her best friend's funeral. Crying at her friend's funeral. People are heartless

Anyone working with the foot fetish freak producer, Dan Schneider from Nickelodeon. He was gross and so many young actors had to deal with it.

This does not pair well with all those one-sided AITA articles that purport to tell both sides of a story from one person. Except, of course, when it involves celebrities.
