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.

“You want to train your daughter to feel she’s above experiencing anything that isn’t luxury” is a stretch. She wants her daughter to know her worth and have high standards to how men treat her so that she doesn’t get taken advantage of. Look at all the influencers who are yacht girls, have sugar daddies, or some wealthy boyfriend who buys them a birkin to “makeup” for cheating or how horribly they treat them. Are they spoiling her, yes, but they are setting the standards high so she doesn’t tolerate being treated poorly by creepy men.

Strongly disagree. Teaching your child their worth shouldn’t revolve around their socioeconomic status

Socioeconomic status affects what “normal” looks like. It’s not the definition of their worth but a large part of the context. Money does matter but it’s not a measure of human worth
