It's really not hypocritical in this instance because the celebrities really don't have to suffer from the effects of bringing in a bunch of refugees in a country the size of Britain, with their housing shortages and pressure on their public services.
It's still a classic ad hominem logical fallacy. We'd all be living in caves and straw huts if the world forced all of us to live by what we say.

As hominems are literally the most intellectually lazy arguments you can make. Perfect for those who only have a high school education
Wealthy, virtue signaling, bubble dwelling celebrities likely hurt Hillary's candidacy, as she publically aligned herself with the elite in every way, and continue to harm the Progressive cause with their rhetoric. The public knows rich Leftists don't practice what they preach. They employ armed body guards to protect their safety, send their children to private schools with $60,000 annual tuitions, build high walls around their homes, and fly on private jets (climate change??).

Hypocrites aren't exactly role models.
Always got a kick out of DiCaprio being given environmental awards. His carbon footprint is measurened in kilotons. Hint: a 400 foot yacht has a carbon footprint that makes a private jet look like a Prius.
United States citizens are not allowed to sponsor refugees in their homes. Our church, however, has worked to place refugee families in our community.
Great. The old "bring em in, make ourselves feel good and then dump them on the US taxpayer."
Thanks but no thanks. Tell your church to knock that crap off. Don't want it. Don't need it. If your church and the parishoners can't pay the ENTIRE COSTS of educating, housing and feeding your pet projects - IN PERPETUITY - WE DO NOT WANT THEM HERE.
So glad I'm not a Christian. What a weak religion for fools. If the Catholic Church acted the way leftist Christians do today throughout the Muslim conquest wars there would BE no Christianity in Europe left! They would have opened their arms to the invaders and the Vatican would be the world's largest mosque.

Dump them on the US taxpayer?
You, sir, have NO CLUE what you are talking about as evidenced by such an ignorant, uninformed statement.
