Lindsay Ellis made a two-hour “critique of capitalism” in which she abandons her family to take five back-to-back solo vacations, spending the entire time feigning abject misery and sneering at the unsophisticated proles who’re actually enjoying themselves.
She ultimately concludes Disney is the “least evil” cruise line because they recognized her as an influencer, gave her a free VIP suite upgrade, had a crew member she wanted to sleep with, and were slightly more transparent about how gratuities are distributed. Virgin was #2 because they had drag queens and no crotch goblins.
The whole video honestly felt like a parody of aging BreadTubers, right down to her cruise buddy being an insufferable twink who wouldn’t shut up about his favorite anarchist philosophers, oblivious to the fact that he’d get his brains bashed in with a rock about six minutes into his romanticized stateless utopia.
My favorite part was when she attended a Frozen princess dinner and, for one brief, glorious moment, experienced a flicker of actual self-awareness about how messed up it was to be on a Disney family cruise without her two young children.
She then immediately drowned such introspections in alcohol before resuming her simultaneous complaints that everything costs too much and that cruise lines should 10x their labor costs.
Leftism in 2026. You genuinely cannot make this up.
Just say you like cruises you slug
