[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think her acknowledgment of privilege goes far enough and that’s why people are dissatisfied by it. There are multiple layers of privilege in this story, and while everyone of course wishes her a full and speedy recovery, it does not seem like her portion of whatever work she is doing needed to be happening right now. She comes off as entitled, rich, privileged, and clueless. I love wildlife and I think it is great that she wants to bring attention to the plight of the bonobo. It’s just a lot to ask me to rationalize when I think about all of the sacrifices regular people are making due to the pandemic and she bops around from speaking roles at the Women’s March to Congolese forests like a ball in a pinball machine of privilege. Her injury sounds harrowing and I wouldn’t wish it on her, but this whole episode has demonstrated to me that she has some work to do on herself. +1000 to the person who said they hope she donates handsomely to benefit Congolese hospitals and schools. And finally, I, too am curious about who her life partner is. [/quote]

How exactly does she come “off off as entitled, rich, privileged, and clueless.”? Please do be specific about her comments or actions relevant to this incident that suggest this.

It’s easy to cut someone down, but at least have the grounded rationale for it. You don’t like Ashley Judd - that is fine. But you don’t have to fabricate a rationale. Or, as some on this thread, degrade her appearance. [/quote]
