Mess with Rob Kardashian and you're in trouble!

Kris Jenner's son posted a short video of the late Malcolm X on Instagram Thursday night, and in it the activist talked about how he lived like he was already dead, so he has "no fear whatsoever of anybody or anything." Rob, who has been keeping out of the spotlight for a little more than a year now, has been slowly resurfacing via social media, so this quote in particular must have resonated with him.

The video didn't have a caption, but a user on Instagram thought Rob was trying to compare himself to the polarizing political figure. When user @annofscotland called Rob out, protective sister Khloé Kardashian stepped in to defend him.

"He is not comparing himself you judgmental f--k," Khloé fired back in the comments. "Where did he say he was?!?! He's simply admiring another man's wisdom, strength and courage...Can't one admire another without the stones being thrown. Chill out. Get off my brothers page."

@Annofscotland must have clarified what she said because Khloé changed her tune and adopted a kinder attitude toward the Instagram user. "@annofscotland happy to hear that! He gets criticized for being too private and then when he decides to get back on social media he gets attacked," Khloé explained.

"Damned if you do and damned if you don't. Let's uplift one another and not assume," she continued. "Let's all root for Rob."

Other users loved what Khloé had to say, and commented, "omg go Khloé" and "slaayyyyy queen" over and over again. Everyone is #TeamRob these days! @AnnofScotland finally backed down and made one last remark.

"Ekk I was only hoping but your family does put itself out there and I wasn't judging," the user wrote. "I was hoping, just like I said! I root for your brother tbh!"

Rob has the support of his friends and family as he slowly works his way back to a healthy lifestyle. So far the Keeping Up With the Kardashian star has lost 15 lbs. and his friends and DASH Dolls star Malika Haqq told E! News recently that he's "doing very well" on his journey.

"I think Rob shares what he wants to share," she said. "I think that's how it should be for everyone. When you're ready you post, post. When you're ready to be seen, be seen. When you don't, leave him alone."
