The internet is a wonderful thing. 

Where else do you get the chance to binge-watch Orange Is The New Black? Or watch 24-hour live footage of kittens?

Yesterday, a Twitter user  posted a disgusting question relating to the newly-released film The Purge: Election Year which centres around citizens in Washington D.C who are permitted to commit any crime for 12 hours, without consequence. 

The tweet, which has now been removed, accompanied a picture including Beyoncé, Nicki Minaj, and Rihanna and read:

Hear hear, Zendaya.
