Anyone find she’s posting a little less? That’s how little she has going on, she doesn’t even know what to post anymore even if it’s just garbage. She was typically good for FAR more stories than she’s had lately, whether mindless rambling or shilling links she was still posting a lot more. She’s still posting crap but just less stories of it.

She didn’t even post her little video today that she said she made yesterday for a company.

She may get opportunities but I can’t help but hope her instagram empire is crumbling.

June and July are typically a lot slower for influencers so I wonder if this is affecting her. I am honestly surprised that she hasn’t jumped on to hawking Amazon shit to bring in more income because it would be extremely lucrative for her even with a couple of links per day. I personally hate Amazon with a passion and think it’s a shady way to earn a living because it’s all crap they share, I am just surprised she hasn’t gone that way to bring in extra money.

I realize that we all have to somehow take part in capitalism and a lot of things people can only get by going to big box, stores, or Amazon, but I always think it’s a big win for the planet and a loss for billionaires when influencers post less about consuming. I never actually want influencers to over consume and thereby influence others yo do the same. I’ll give credit where credit is due and I hope this is a trend that continues and that all the other shine people also stop pushing everyone to buy all the time. Little victories for the planet are little victories am I right? We need less fast fashion (instead let’s support local and small and NO s&t isn’t small) , more activism (or even some activism like speaking up for Sudan, DRC and Palestine, and trans kids) and less trips (local shops need influencers to give them business to drive business). When I see even small changes I HOPE they are moving to being more authentic (I won’t get my hopes up too much but you never know). Calling people out on snarks is the only way they can see what people think and it’s necessary to demand more from people on platforms.

Hello new Lemmy friends!

Word on the street tells us our community is regularly making it the all page. While this is very cool news to hear, we can see how the sudden emergence of our posts in your feed might feel jarring and probably raises some questions. And also how, without knowing the backstory, our community might appear less than virtuous, so here’s a very brief introduction which hopefully will clear a few things up.

The woman we’re discussing is a body positive influencer and media personality who has gained fame and wealth by lying, manipulating, exploiting her children for content, plagiarizing BIPOC creators and blaming her BIPOC content editor for it (thereby ruining her career), among other things. Her fraudulent behavior is no different (I’d argue worse) from the likes of Jay Shetty (google him if you don’t know who he is or what he did). She’s the latest in a long line of grifting influencers who are abusing their power, taking advantage of their position and exploiting their followers. The difference is that she’s Canadian. Our laws around social media and advertising aren’t as clear (and where they are she’s disobeyed them), add to that, our mainstream media has protected her from those who’ve tried to expose her grift and silenced/intimidated anyone who’s tried to speak out.

Our Reddit sub was taken down due to reports of copyright infringement, which is unfounded and categorically untrue as no one ever tried to steal her work and pass it off as their own. The mods have made an appeal. While at first glance it may seem like we’re just “shitting on her” the sub has been more devoted to investigation and posting proof of her lies than just bitching for the sake of bitching. The reality is that she’s hurt, manipulated and let down a lot of people. She stole intellectual property and employment, caused mental distress and has repeatedly told lies to boost engagement and profit off her audience, so people are understandably upset that their voices are being silenced.

We’re grateful to have been welcomed so kindly by so many of you, and to those sticking around to watch the drama unfold, we’re glad to have you!
