A British influencer savaged for admitting judging what people put of their shopping trolleys has deleted her account after copping heavy backlash.
Olympia Anley, a second-year university student who gained an enormous following documenting her lavish lifestyle, recently described herself as being “snobby about people’s food shopping” after spotting a girl within the supermarket buying white bread, crisps and fast noodles.
The 20-year-old was widely criticized for judging strangers in a cost-of-living crisis, with many labeling the video – filmed whilst sipping a glass of lemon ice water – “tone deaf.”
In response Olympia, who had over 322.9k followers on TikTok, appears to have now deleted her account following the heated backlash.
During her lengthy “rant” – which was captioned “moral of the story, don’t go in front of me on the cashier” Olympia said she was “shocked” by how others eat.
“I don’t wanna offend anyone with this video, but we live in a society that has normalized and literally encourages treating the symptom and never the cause and I wanna speak about it,” she stated. “Something I’m snobby about and never happy with are people’s food shops.
“I used to be on the supermarket this afternoon just doing my food shop and the girl in front of me – only for context, she may need been having a celebration, I don’t know if she was going to eat it or who the food was for – but she was loading on all this junk food – white bread, crisps, Pot Noodles, all that form of stuff.
“And in addition, an entire load of medication – pills, sachets, I couldn’t imagine it.”
British woman Olympia Anley has taken drastic motion after she was savaged for her “out of touch” rant about one other woman’s grocery shop while in a supermarket.
Olympia then went on to explain how she checked out what was going into the girl’s trolley, and was in a position to draw comparisons against the general state of individuals’s health.
“Anyway, it was so paradoxical for me and again, no judgment and I don’t know her personal situation, nevertheless it really spoke to me about how we don’t listen to what we’re putting in our bodies enough,” she said.
“After which we numb it with drugs so we will’t feel what’s happening inside.
“Now I’m no nutritionist or functional health practitioner, but you ingest c**p, you are feeling c**p and also you get all kinds of illnesses, symptoms and diseases that arise from not taking care of your body properly.”
Olympia’s “rant” quickly garnered attention, but not for the explanation she’d hoped, with many expressing their shock and horror on the comments.
“It’s classism for views,” one woman lamented.
“I’m actually so confused about how someone might be so tone deaf? The audacity and lack of shame to find a way to film this and post this,” one other said.
One TikTok user, Joseph Marshall, identified all the explanations Olympia’s rant did not hit the mark in his own viral video.
“I just need to remind you, there’s a cost-of-living crisis currently and plenty of families can’t afford their apple sauce from Waitrose [a high-end British supermarket], unlike your mummy and daddy, so yeah, some people do need to buy junk food, since it’s cheaper sometimes,” he said.
“Also, there’s plenty of families on the market, parents, who need to sacrifice their food substance for his or her children, because they don’t want their children to starve, so the parents starve as an alternative.
“There’s literally no excuse for this video you’ve made.
“The very fact you come on here, TikTok, and speak about your snobbiness of individuals buying junk food if you don’t even know them is disgusting and sorry Olympia, but you’re a reasonably disgusting person.”
Many commended Marshall, stating the young woman was “out of touch with reality”.
“Well said,” one other agreed.
“So tone deaf, can’t imagine some individuals are like that,” a 3rd commented.
Whilst another person noted: “Not forgetting the parents that need to buy ‘beige/junk/processed’ food, because they’ve ASD children.”
Following the outpouring of anger aimed in Olympia’s direction, the influencer appears to have deactivated her account, with an error message now appearing where her page once was.
She appears to still be lively on Instagram where she has just 14,700 followers, where she posts photos of her luxury holidays overseas.
