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!

Sarah’s oldest daughter is talking to her. I shouldn’t be able to recognize their voices but, thanks to their loving mother, I can. She’s the one who doesn’t want to be on SM so her parent records the conversation without her knowing and posts it for all her followers so they know her kids talk to her.
Birdie seems to be cutting her sisters grass. Can Sarah let someone else shine for a minute. On the flip side, my cousin is like a sister to me, she has a more prominent career than I do. She never talks about her career at family gatherings. She engages others and asks about their passions. When I started working in fashion marketing, she let me shine. I can't imagine being Sarah's sister. Her sisters online thrift store is cool. She must work hard at it, plus having a job and juggling a family. Sarah never promotes her sister. She posts her own finds making thrifting look easy. Her sister thrifts and curates, there is a big difference. Sarah is a self centred fool.
I don’t understand why she wouldn’t buy the plates for her sister to sell. She just can’t do that. She has to get on SM immediately to brag about her fantastic find instead of supporting her sister’s business. Your cousin sounds like a wonderful person who knows how families should work.
Sarah at family dinners would be a nightmare.
Sarah at anything would be a nightmare!
I can promise you, her whole family and extended family are a bunch of insufferable delusional quacks. Absolutely hereditary
Id love to hear more lol
The call is coming from inside the house..........
Woah, what if this in reference to?
Some sort of beef she had with a “friend” you can see how she is definitely not the problem it’s all the friends doing.
The apple didn't fall far, did it? 🤣
Lol was just about to write the same thing 😂
Because Birdshit only cares about Birdshit. She missed her daughter's swimming for her fake hair... I just can't.
