Following the criticism of Arcade Fire's "We Exist" music video made by Laura Jane Grace of Against Me!, Arcade Fire frontman Win Butler has reacted to the comments in an interview with The Advocate. Butler stated:

"Once something gets on the Internet, it works its way into people's lives in a way that I think is pretty powerful. For a gay kid in Jamaica to see the actor who played Spider-Man in that role is pretty damn powerful, in my opinion. There was just so much thought and love that went into the video I don't personally see it as negative."

In response to this, Grace replied on Twitter.
