I get what she’s saying, albeit she’s never been poor but she’s not a billionaire and has stood up for women’s reproductive rights. However, economists have argued that there’s more inequality now than during that era. You don’t have to lay in the Palace of Versailles to know why people were mad then or now.
i wish such a gorgeous location had a better music video 🙁
It’s like the nobility saying “ya I get where the peasants are coming from, must really suck to be one of them”
Always a little bit annoying when the rich try to hello fellow kids the rest of us
Why’re people pressed about this…..? Learning about the French Revolution in a classroom gives you a very different perspective than seeing Versailles, it makes total sense that being in the palace would really hammer home why the revolution happened.
She’s rich but definitely not Versailles rich. Also she’s not a political leader like the monarchy, regular rich people and rich people who are supposed to be taking care of you but aren’t are a bit different
Ya’ll are being so weird about this. Very non controversial nothing burger statement
Olivia would be one of the rich being beheaded though lol at least she would get to the guillotine and just shrug like, yeah… fair 🤷🏾♀️
Obama used to say a similar thing about visiting places in Europe that had a lot more impressive buildings than anything we have here in the US. Like they’re amazing, but you can see why the revolutions against the monarchy in Russia and France in particular were so bloody.
After the Vulture’s article about clipping last week, this is the exact kind of social media ragebait that they use to push people into their own thought bubbles. It’s at work in this thread. I’m going to bet 90% of the users are not gonna be interested in watching this entire interview in order to form an opinion about her.
she’s funny tho
Reminder, you’re closer to Olivia’s net worth than she is to any of the oligarchs that you’re pissed off about.
JESUS fucking Christ.
Before you haters cry about this, you need to educate yourselves on the French Revolution. Y’all seem to think it was exclusively poors vs wealthy
There were wealthy revolutionaries. Their monetary contributions and positions in society allowed them to help educate* and rally the working class
Were we to do as the French did, you all know which side Olivia would be on
