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!

If the husband really said this to her it is proof that she has somehow truly fooled everyone around her. We see a heck of a lot of resting for both of them. Does she need rest because she spent one week being a solo mom, something she has very, very frequently left others to do? Only it was a trip with restaurants and built in entertainment she wasn’t event on deck for the everyday life stuff. She posted on her mermaid shoot that she was burnt out - she wouldn’t survive actual burnout. This B needs a dose of reality.

I broke both tibia’s running here to post exactly this. What a slap in the god damn face to all of us WORKING mothers who are actually active full time parents. Not tooting my horn here but I’m sure you mamas here are in the same boat - just trying to get by in this crazy, politically heavy world. I work as a full time realtor, part time in a home interior store, have three teenage kids with activities, a dog that I have to walk at least 5kms a day to make sure he’s fulfilled, I cook meals for my family and I manage to keep a clean house myself. Get wrecked birdshit - you are an embarrassment to women and a fucking tone deaf asshole. I pray that you get cancelled!

The audacity of this bitch! Like she hasn’t even cooked a goddamn meal in weeks ffs. I’m actually speechless at this post. I really hope her brain dead fans question this.

She had no fucking idea what is actually like. I work, cook, clean, drive the kids to their full-time sports, take care of the pets, and still manage to have me time and gym time. It's a fucking grind but it's MY grind and I'm ok with it. My "rest" is a happy hour with girlfriends or an afternoon watching TV by myself. BECAUSE I'M AN ADULT AND PARENT FIRST. Even if I wasn't a parent, I would still have adult responsibilities, of which she seems to have none. It is a slap in the face, not just to mom's but working adults everywhere.

She’s not like us. WE are actual warrior women 🫶🏼🫵🏼
