Although might be unfair for some people, whether it might be better financial stability or status, someone’s ignorance shouldn’t be the cause of hate. I don’t really agree that in life you need to know everything. Sometimes being ignorant leads you to happiness or at least a restricted one. I don’t think it’s a wrong choice, it’s an option.
Personally, i would find her frivolousness a bit annoying : how can a person be so out of touch. However life is indeed unfair. Her sort of innocence and attitude before the revolution were results of what she went through her life as a well-respected noble, and her own personality (the fact that she is so afraid of many thing and the fact that she wasn’t exposed and given the chance to know more about politics, simply bc the family kept it well —> favours the chances of her being likely ignorant about other kind of problems and focus over “trivial” things). One thing is be aware of the problem but don’t do anything and another is not be aware.
I don’t really agree with what happened during chapter 14 : it was selfishness of the ginger lady to spill the whole truth. She wanted to feel satisfied for her own benefit. I mean FL sort of agreed to know the truth, but I don’t think she needed to apologise. It’s not her fault to be born and more so just to be like that.
I might defend the FL, but I am sure if I will truly act like this way if I were in the ginger lady situation. It’s something irrational to be predicted so ill give the benefit of doubt.
(If you don’t agree , please don’t attack me and just argue back in a gentle manner thanks)
