Another part of this whole free cruise bullshit that bothers me is that it is so close to Christmas. For some families who could potentially afford this after saving up, this would be their Christmas gift to their family. But this family is going to come home and still have Christmas with an obscene amount of gifts, both free and bought. She tried the whole Disney is the gift thing last year, and that ended up being a lie. Nothing about any of this is relatable even in the smallest amount no matter how hard she tries. She has to know how bad this makes her look, and that is probably why she sprinkled in the divorce talk yesterday. It’s her only relatable tool anymore and even that wasn’t a relatable experience to most people’s divorces. And seeing Renee and Jilly there just reconfirms that the most undeserving always seem to come out on top.

I forgot to add that every day she does the advent giveaway with products she didn’t even have to buy herself. There comes a point with wealth that you should get really embarrassed by accepting free things.

Well said. Nothing like rubbing in a free cruise two weeks before Xmas while a lot of parents are probably scrabbling to provide a nice Christmas for their families. And while she’s at it, she’s going to make it seem like it’s something affordable even though she didn’t dip into her wallet the entire time. And no I don’t believe she realizes how bad this makes her look! She doesn’t care, she’ll just be all “oh I’m so grateful to be given this opportunity as media”.

And her advent thing makes me so mad because like you said, she isn’t paying for any of the gifts she’s giving away! She never does anything from the goodness of her heart and that isn’t gifted.

Sarah’s parents repurchased her house for her after the divorce. Her father originally paid her portion of the down payment when Sarah and her first husband bought their house at age 20. She chose the house $$ over going to university. Sarah complains about missing out on university but skips the part where she was financially set up. Sarah forgets that she bragged non-stop to her friends and extended family that she had the jump start in her 20s because she skipped post-secondary education. Sarah’s marriage was hunky-dory until the kids were old enough that she stopped getting attention. When the attention shifted to her sister’s newer family Sarah started losing weight and cheating.

I gues her parents drew the line at getting their Princess her own ride. Her sob story includes only having one vehicle so she and the kids were trapped at home! She couldn’t possibly walk places or take transit or drive her husband to work and pick him up. She was just stuck! It’s interesting to find out her parents gave her the downpayment. She’s never wanted for anything in her entire life.

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!
