Actor Dean Norris criticized people who are complaining about soaring gas prices across the United States.
The "Breaking Bad" star said current gas prices are "fair market" and urged anyone who "love Capitalism" to "stfu," an acronym for shut the f--- up.
"You're not getting 'robbed' at the pump," Norris wrote in a tweet on Wednesday. "You’re paying fair market price for a commodity. If you love Capitalism so much then stfu."
The tweet garnered more than 7,200 retweets and 66,000 likes as of Sunday morning.
The tweet also garnered some pushback from people who pointed out that Norris is wealthy.
"Easy to say when you have a net worth of 5 mil" one person commented.
Norris' social media post comes as Americans are seeing record-high gas prices.
The national average for a gallon of gas sits at more than $4.98, according to AAA. Norris lives in California, where gas is the most expensive at an average of more than $6.40 per gallon.
The cheapest price for gas in the country is in Georgia, where Peach State residents are seeing an average price of around $4.48 per gallon.
At this time a year ago, the national average was $3.70, AAA reported.
Before this year, the highest national gas price average ever recorded by AAA was $4.114 per gallon in July 2008.

Not sure I understand. Tried reading between the line but none the wiser
Millionaire tells people who made him rich to stop worrying about rising cost of necessities.

failing to note that the prices are up globally - know they are insular, inwards looking, simple backwards people who don't realise there are any other countries in the world. But every country with many right-wing parties in charge have are much worse.
Youd hardly describe the UKs Conservative party woke lefty liberals, quite the opposite and price per gallon in USD is $8.385 which is about 40% more than they pay in America.
oil companies have set the rates in line with how Capitalist markets work.

OPEC is a monopoly. Monopolists aren't true capitalists. They are white collar criminals and should be made to live in Saudi Arabia permanently.
