Per the primary post on Twitter that sparked the chain of insights, a fan claimed to have finished watching the 75-year-old pro’s show recently and hailed him for his efforts. “Just finished watching #FUBAR on @NetflixBrasil. @Schwarzenegger is back! We need season 2!!”, the remark stated along with a GIF featuring the star’s shredded arms from his 1987 movie, Predator. 

Filled with gratification, Schwarzenegger acknowledged the post with a brief note of thanks on Twitter, resharing it with a “Thanks for watching!” Hence, the animation encouraged a critical comment from a user. Taking a dig at The Austrian Oak’s ostrich egg biceps, the user wrote, “That’s Arnold’s bicep in Predator back in the 1980s, he won’t show his biceps now, it’s disappointing that he doesn’t keep them looking good, even at 75 a man can have nice biceps.”

The user claimed that the photo further “proves his point” as now his biceps are mostly composed of flabby skin, and he has little forearms now. Although, the user appreciated his “shape” as great for a 75-year-old. The fans couldn’t hold back their emotions and took turns dismissing the user’s comment. 

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s fanbase stands together to counterattack the hater

The Terminator star boasts a massive fanbase of 5.2 million followers on the platform. Thus, the amount of support he received was overwhelming. One fan hinted at his health struggles and pointed out, “The man has had multiple heart surgeries. Show some respect.”

Whereas another questioned the user’s intent, saying, “Got to be a parody. You’re trying to tell me this man woke up today and said I will start a fight with Arnold Schwarzenegger.” 

A mindful comment urged the user to realize that Arnie is 75 while stating, “He’s done everything he needed to accomplish…He just wants to chill and enjoy his life. Those countless hours in the gym days are over.”

Another angry fan mocked the user by saying that Arnie would still crush him even at this age.
