TikToker @millyg_fit was rebuked by numerous strangers after offering to purchase their groceries for them in the London Sainsbury store, eventually opting to buy some goods for a food donation bin.

It's becoming a popular trend to film yourself doing good deeds to get clout on the internet.

It's called performative kindness.


Amelia Goldsmith filmed herself trying to pay for patrons' groceries in a Sainsbury, London store,but she was turned down by every person she approached.

Goldsmith approached three different people and every one of them turned her down. The first man appeared to be angry at her offer, the second person turned her down instantly and the third told her there were people who were more deserving of her charity.

Goldsmith didn't want to leave the store without doing some act of kindness so she purchased some pasta and canned sauce and put them in the store's food pantry bin.

in hindsight i can see why people can react differently to this, but my intentions were purely to brighten up someones day💕 i’m still super happy with what I ended up doing and i’ll do more of it for sure #storytime #vlog #makesomeonesday #foodshop

The comments on the video largely criticized Goldsmith.

It seems the consensus is filming the good deed and searching for someone to help in a wealthy neighborhood are not the best approaches to helping someone in need.

MAGA Senator Faces Backlash For Dodging Question About High Beef Prices—And People Are Having A Cow

Mississippi Republican Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith is facing backlash after dodging a question about high beef prices amid the nationwide affordability crisis and telling WLOX news viewers that they have "so many proteins to choose from."

Last month, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins claimed that food prices were coming down, even as the Consumer Price Index shows grocery costs rose 0.7% in December. Beef, which Rollins elevated near the top of the food pyramid in the dietary guidelines she recently unveiled, increased 1% over the month and was up 16.4% compared with a year earlier.
