ONTD Investigates: Do nepobabies have working class solidarity?
Jul 15, 2023 02:00
As we all know SAG-AFTRA as well as the WGA is on strike as of today.
Having a bit of free time I checked this semi-definite list of nepo babies belonging or having qualified for SAG-AFTRA membership, picked out these:
[86 nepobabies]Laura Dern Oona Chaplin Jason Schwartzman Nicolas Cage Eva Amurri Cazzie David Robert Downey Jr. Abby Elliott Gabriel Kane Day-Lewis Honor Swinton-Byrne John Higgins Nico Parker Cooper Hoffman Charlie Hall Ever Gabo Anderson Deacon Phillippe Lily-Rose Depp Colin Hanks Zosia Mamet Allison Williams Rumer WIllis Jessica Capshaw Sosie Bacon Spencer Grammer Scott Eastwood Harley Quinn Smith Scott Caan Bryce Dallas Howard Billie Lourd Katherine Waterston Alice Englert Louisa Jacobson Mamie Gummer Michael Gandolfini Grace Gummer Dan Levy Ben Platt Maya Hawke Jack Quaid Lily Collins Maude Apatow John David Washington Zoe Kazan Margaret Qualley Wyatt Russell Zoey Deutch Riley Keough Bill Skarsgard Alexander Skarsgard Dakota Johnson Zoe Kravitz Kate Hudson George Clooney Gwyneth Paltrow Anjelica Huston Emilio Estevez Charlie Sheen Jane Fonda Michael Douglas Ben Stiller Jamie Lee Curtis Angelina Jolie Kiefer Sutherland Drew Barrymore Mariska Hargitay Mia Farrow Josh Brolin Jeff Bridges Beau Bridges Rashida Jones Cuba Gooding Jr. Jemima Kirke Lola Kirke Maya Rudolph Chord Overstreet Tracee Ellis Ross Liv Tyler Anabelle Dexter-Jones Eve Hewson Lucas Hedges Beanie Feldstein Jonah Hill Rooney Mara Kate Mara Nicola Peltz
for being well-known themselves, having well-known or extremely rich parents and compared them to people who are listed by Deadline on being on the SAG picket line on day one.
There is no overlap at all.
Then I looked at the folks' instagram accounts.
Out of these 86 people, seven do not appear to have active instagram accounts (Jason Schwartzman, Cooper Hoffman, Zoe Kazan, Nicolas Cage, Margaret Qualley, Lucas Hedges, and Rooney Mara).
As of now, out of other 79 nepo babies 69 have not posted anything about the strike.
Harley Quinn Smith, Dan Levy, Zoe Kazan, Zoey Deutch, Mariska Hargitay, Rashida Jones, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Eve Hewson posted insta stories about the strike.
Bryce Dallas Howard, Jack Quaid, Ben Stiller and Jamie Lee Curtis posted a regular post on the strike. (Only Curtis changed her avatar.)
So in conclusion: nepo babies at large do not appear have any solidarity with the working class, not even managing the minimal activism of a social media post.
So stay tuned for Part Two of this expose: A Modest Proposal: For Preventing the Children of Poor Rich People from Being a Burthen to Their Parents or Country, and for Making Them Beneficial to the Publick
