Many Tik Tok users are trying to paint this woman as a villain because she refused to give up her first class seat on an airplane. Tik Tok user @maresasd was approached by a family who asked if they could change seats with her so the family could all sit together on the plane. Her response? No. Her reason? She paid for a first class seat and had no intention on moving to coach class because of their poor planning. Here’s her original video:
@maresasd I'm sorry moms and families but as a fellow mom I'm not a villain for not giving up my seat

By the look of the comment section, reactions are mixed. There’s a flight attendant jumped into the comments to say that they see this kind of maneuver all the time. Parents trying to use their kids to shame people out of their preferred seats. The origianal video has been seen 3.5 million times. After some negative comments, she decided to post this video to tell the whole story:
@maresasd Replying to @acdaniel1987 ok here's the skinny and my thoughts ❤️

Basically that’s when this commenter was “triggered”. She was also called ‘elitist’ for not giving up her seat:
@maresasd #duet with @brithefamilyguy #Stitch hey there it's your favorite elitist

The individual said the video “triggered” them, and they would gladly switch a first-class seat, even if it were just because someone preferred a window to an aisle. “You’re going to be so elitist that you’re like, ‘No, I got my seat, that’s it,’ and everybody in the comments is like, ‘Rah!’”
