Anti-Islam posts by Karla Sofía Gascón have resurfaced amid her Oscars race.
Now, as journalist Sarah Hagi noted on X, Karla appears to still a number of anti-Islam posts on the social media site from the past decade. In one 2016 post, she called the religion “a hotbed of infection for humanity that urgently needs to be cured.”
In another from 2020, she accused the attacks in Nice of having been perpetrated by “one of these r**arded followers of Allah” and said that “we have to expel these madmen from Europe.” She included a caricature of an Arab man pointing at a paintbrush, surrounded by decapitated heads, crying, “Mama he hurt my feelings.” That same year, she called the religion “disgusting” in a post with a woman wearing a burka.
A source close to the Academy told BuzzFeed that Karla’s posts on X do not constitute a violation of their campaign rules as they do not involve another film or nominee.
BuzzFeed has reached out to a representative for Karla for comment.
