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!

Of course everyone deserves to go out and have fun but her dressing up in ho style for a party on her part is simply selfish. After all her time away she could stay home with her family. We never see a tradition shared, a new one started or any time that Sarah gives of herself and yet she gets celebrated for her hobby parenting. She’s such a selfish hag.

How rude, she put up all her gifted Christmas decor yesterday in her newly gifted living area in her gifted Xmas sweater! She deserved to go out and be a ho! 🙄🙄🙄

But no I totally agree. Most families probably have nice Saturday evening traditions but not Sarah, she just flies off or goes out and only cares about herself having fun and leaving Shane behind to watch the family and feed them etc. since it prob took her hours to make herself over.

You know it took her hours! That contouring needs to be working for when she’s out in public.

Sarah’s approach to life has gone too far in the space of not letting wife or mother be her identity. She puts no effort into bonding with her family. Her identity is her beauty standard approved face and her body. But she is not a world changer - Sarah is a bored privileged suburban house wife who ate her feelings because she is incapable of building healthy relationships with anyone, even her children. An activist or champion of change shines a light on everyone impacted by body image or self love. Sarah only highlights things that affect her. Her whole identity on line is about herself. She does not give a shit about anyone else.

He’s at home pitching a tent over the hands free garbage 🗑️

Incoming content: Shame finding anything to throw out simply to use the hands-free, Sarah filming it all the while thinking it’s hilarious and he’s being super zany

She can show up online sexualizing herself at her Ho parties and every other day for that matter but you’ll quickly get a warning on Reddit if you talk about it.

Content could have been something like - ‘Cook a meal with me in my newly-renovated kitchen!’
