People said that the post was insensitive and "sexualising" a minor and should not be excused. However, some people also defended the model saying that she just made a "disgusting" joke and there are more serious sexual harassment cases that should be given attention.

Ali Michael later deleted her post and responded to the negative comments. She said, "Hi, Yesterday I posted a picture of Mike from Stranger Things and wrote 'Call me in 4 years.' It was completely and absolutely a joke but I understand that people have been offended by it. It was wrong to joke about and I apologize. I do not want Mike from Stranger Things to call me. I hope this clears things up."

‘It’ is a twisted, terrifying and an intense piece of work

Finn Wolfhard also recently fired his agent amid sexual assault claims made by a former child-star.
