Netizens mocked her look by replacing her costume with the garbage bag, while others edited the entire scene with the destruction caused by Russian attacks in Ukrainian territory. A fair section of Twitter users titled her “Miss Genocide”, embedding the trail of destruction in Russia left behind due to the Russian attack.
Feel the difference.
