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!

Imagine getting everything about yourself from someone else, like she’s not creative enough to come up with anything herself. She has no personality of her own. Steals hairstyles, makeup ideas, tattoos, clothing styles, interests, articles, HER OWN DAMN SIGNATURE, she doesn’t have a single thing that is hers and not something she adopted from somewhere else. How is this person famous on the internet when she doesn’t have original bone in her body and just steals from everywhere else. Getting inspiration from others is great but she makes other people’s thoughts her own!!
She’s like tofu. Tastes like nothing on its own, absorbs all the flavours of the sauce it’s in, and then becomes the star of the dish. The sheer bullshit of saying that SHE manifested stretch marks becoming normal. Black and brown women paved the way for that and got left behind. Not you, tofu Barbie.
Omg this! She’s acting like she’s the only bitch on earth with stretch marks and like she herself made them trendy and normal. Only she would act like she started the stretch mark movement. She makes me so mad.
Her smug ass face was nauseating.
The way she filters her shoulder width and chest/ribcage to be so narrow yet doesn't notice it gives her a completely disproportionate head to body ratio boggles my mind.
This is where it all breaks down for me. She keeps telling women their body is the least interesting thing about them yet all her goals involve people looking at her body on runways and billboards. She really believes she’s normalized the average body but all she does everyday is sexualize the female form and that’s the opposite of what most everyday women want. I know I’ve beat this drum to death but she puts no value on intelligence and it’s just so wrong.
She infuriates me
Slappable Grinch mug.
She's such a spoiled brat. Next she'll want the Nobel prize. I find it interesting how Sarah always has to compare and undermine the experiences of others. How does she know gym bro's don't get comments they don't like. She doesn't. She just assumes she has it the hardest.
Such a good point! I’m sure all the people she listed who she claims don’t get rude comments ALLLLLL get rude comments. She wants to be the biggest victim so badly.
She's had a very hard life 🙄
Only 70-90% of women have stretch marks and another 40% of men. She’s such an asshole.
Tofu Barbie 👏🏼
Dying to ask for this to be a flair. Sigh…
This should get reposted to one of the Reddit groups
