Mother Loses It When Somebody Calls Her Fast Food Worker Daughter A Hero, Says She’s A Slave Of Capitalism
The coronavirus pandemic is setting some people on edge. Especially those who are still working in the real world and are at risk of catching Covid-19.
When talk show host Ellen DeGeneres made a joke about how the coronavirus quarantine is like jail, she made a lot of her fans angry. “One thing that I’ve learned from being in quarantine is that this is like being in jail. It’s mostly because I’ve been wearing the same clothes for 10 days and everyone in here is gay,” she said.
One woman to call Ellen out on Twitter said that the celebrity should try working her daughter’s fast food job without any protective equipment. When somebody told the mother that her daughter is a hero, she lost it and replied that the 19-year-old is a “slave to capitalism” and a “sacrifice demanded by the elites.”

Not everyone agreed with the mother’s message. Some people obviously supported her and her daughter. Others thought that the mother was being overly dramatic, shouldn’t use words like “slave,” and said that there’s no real alternative to working for a living.
While a few people also pointed out that her daughter can’t be called a sacrifice for the elites if she’s helping provide fast food to ordinary folks.
However, the mother wasn’t the only person mad at 62-year-old Ellen. Some people said that Ellen’s joke about jail was “tone-deaf,” considering that the US is seeing more and more prison inmates testing positive for Covid-19.
While this “at-home edition” of her talk show was received poorly, Ellen’s previous quarantine videos were much more successful. Ellen’s wife Portia de Rossi is her camera operator and director while their dog Augie is key grip.
This isn’t the first time that celebrities have seen backlashes for what they do in self-isolation. For instance, actress Gal Gadot got quite a bit of heat for posting a video of her and other stars singing John Lennon’s Imagine. Some people pointed out that celebrities singing doesn’t really help anyone.
Here’s how some people reacted to the mother’s comments
