On August 4, actor Jamie Foxx had shared a cryptic message on his social media account that pointed to antisemitism. The Baby Driver actor’s post read, “They killed this dude name Jesus… what do you think they’ll do to you?” in all caps. He shared the post on both his grid and Instagram story.

Aniston appears to have liked the controversial post without even fully reading it, which drew people’s attention. The Good Girl star is now clearing things up. She began, sharing a screenshot of Foxx’s post to her own Instagram story and calling out the narrative. Her post read, 

“This really makes me sick. I did not ‘like’ this post on purpose or by accident. And more importantly, I want to be clear to my friends and anyone hurt by this showing up in their feeds – I do NOT support any form of antisemitism. I truly don’t tolerate HATE of any kind. Period.”
