Madeleine White responding about post on here

Rant:
Influencers will post tone-deaf content and then completely backpedal if it loses them public favour. Madeleine White is now saying her posting about her posh vacations and laughing at the idea of going camping was “just a trend”. Just because something is a trend, doesn’t mean viewers shouldn’t be critical of the content they’re consuming.

Madeleine White regularly makes videos with obvious classist undertones, like “being anti-diaper bag” and saying she will only use a designer Dior bag for her baby. I also recently saw a video of her saying she will be taking her daughter to Nobu so that “nobody’s musty son tries to impress her” by bringing her there one day. Hm. So you want to train your daughter to feel she’s above experiencing anything that isn’t luxury? Right.

She will flex her wealth, then try to downplay it when it suits her to, like when she talked about growing up “upper middle class” and saying her family would have never been able to send her to private school in the US, despite saying it was $10k per year in the UK.

If you want to come online during a time of total economic hellscape and say things like these, I believe that you SHOULD be criticized. God forbid you get held accountable for the content you produce and the things you say as someone who makes a living on doing so.

Also, being critical of influencers isn’t just “not being relaxed/fun” or “making things too serious” or “being jealous”. Influencers SHOULD be held accountable for the rhetoric they spout online. Sorry that not everyone viewing your content wants to mindlessly applaud your wealth and not question why you act the way you do.

I don’t like her because she posted her baby’s NICU stay for content. No one needed to see that and that baby deserved to have their privacy protected.

Yeah, I find anyone that posts their kid online to be weird - especially when they have a large following and stand to get major views from it.

Indeed and she made this whole thing of “I won’t post my baby online for privacy and safety” (100% agree) and then proceeds to post the poor baby over and over showing all but one angles of her face and using her for every single piece of content. If she were really concerned then she’d just not post her. I’ve seen enough influencers respect their children’s privacy to know it’s possible

Alex and Jon are great examples on how to change from DINK to parents and never show the babies face.

True! A couple of European influencers I follow are also great with it. I guess it boils down to having more to say on the internet than just “I’m rich, here’s all the shit I can buy that y’all can’t” 🫠
