'So tone-deaf'
"I'm sorry rich people are literally so tone-deaf," one person commented on Teigen's post. "Squid Game was literally about people whose lives were so awful because of being poor that they'd rather play a game of literal life or death to escape going back to poverty and Chrissy Teigen is really reenacting it in her mansion."
'Completely missed the point'
"Usually I'm a fan of Chrissy Teigen," wrote another, who went on to add, "but there's something super f-ed up and weird about spending the weekend cosplaying Squid Game with your incredibly rich friends."
'Unmatched irony'
"Rich people dressing up as characters from Squid Game... way to miss the point of the show," commented somebody else. "Super tone deaf."
'Taking personal offense'
"Taking personal offense at the complete lack of self awareness Chrissy Teigen must have in order to throw a Squid Game-themed party where she watches her rich friends 'fight to the death,'" tweeted another. "The commentary just writes itself..."
Could be a 'Squid Game' Season 2 plot
"This is so beyond tone deaf as a millionaire to invite your rich friends over and reenact squid games which is rooted in the violence of capitalism," wrote another person on Teigen's post.
Teigen didn't get the message
"Yknow what, I'm tired of being self aware and trying to live a judgment free life. I wish to be as ignorant as Chrissy Teigen hosting a Squid Game party with her rich LA friends," added somebody else. "I didn't watch the show but I'm pretty sure 'those games look so fun!' wasn't supposed to be the takeaway."
'Complete lack of self-awareness'
"This is more Squid Game than Squid Game is Squid Game," one person wrote under Teigen's post, which others called "cringe." Several more criticized Teigen or her "complete lack of self-awareness."
