But Stewart’s post drew attention for all the wrong reasons, with her followers calling her out for being “tone-deaf” and “irresponsible.”
“Overall I love Martha and the excesses of her life because he’s about beautiful gardens, houses, and food, but rich white people drinking their iceberg cocktails while the planet is on fire are a little tone-deaf,” said one fan .
“So while the climate warms thanks to the profits of a few thousand people, billionaires are vacationing at the melting icebergs, scooping them up and using them to keep their cocktails cold,” another wrote.
That sounds like a sentence from a dystopian novel. I can’t make this up lol.
A third added, “Martha, I love you.” But didn’t you just mention climate change when you were washing your driveway in New York?
‘Melting icebergs for a cocktail certainly doesn’t help. I’m not even going to talk about the boat you’re on and how that can’t be good for climate change either.’
“Catching an iceberg for your cocktail is so damn dreary,” said a fourth social media user, while others commented, “Triangle of sadness” and “How dystopian.”
