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!

It is just so strange she posts picture and videos of Nails and Neighbour but not one of her other guest.
I’d be so insulted but for some reason C seems to be okay with it since they’re still hanging around. I thought maybe they’d come to their senses but guess not and they’re okay still be hidden.
I couldn’t imagine being hidden like that even as just a friend, they really could’ve played up the friends who fell in love angle but hiding C throughout the whole thing just makes it shady 🤷🏻♀️ but Bird is a liar and manipulator who will tell all her followers she was hiding this to nourish the relationship or some bs that they’ll fall for.
I think it's cruel and reeks of internalized homophobia and shame. Sarah fears losing her white/hetero privilege. Sarah probably justifies it to C by saying, "I've learned to keep this part of my life private." Meanwhile, you know if Sarah dated a notable man, she'd be shouting it from the rooftop.
Oh I 100% agree. C is very very foolish to let Bird do this to them, but I’m sure Bird manipulated them as she does everyone else.
And you’re sooooo right. If she was dating a man we’d 100% know about it already and she’d be going on about how he saved her blah blah blah. But C just gets hidden because Bird is a POS.
I agree and it doesn’t make sense when 🐦was crying over C on traitors and said she’s my best friend! If she’s really a best friend, why is she hidden?
Terribly toxic to make a “best friend” in a week. Yea I’ve had instant connections with people that eventually stayed in my life and have become a best friend. But we weren’t calling each other besties in a matter of days.
She calls an awful lot of people her ‘best’ friend.
She claws her way in like a parasite.
toxic is exactly it. sarah has called countless people her “best friend” over the years (including her most recent ex-husband, who she almost certainly cheated on). and how many of these “best friends” are even in her life anymore? it's very typical for narcissists to cycle through intense friendships and lack the ability to sustain long-term friendships.
I wish I wasn’t blocked so I could send her questions like this lol
Same
“I share everything with you guys so please understand I had to keep something just for me. I hope you understand” OR “I thought maybe everyone would turn on me so I was terrified to share this news with you all” OR “it took me some time to process the death of one relationship while being so in love in another”. Whatever lie that can be spun to garner attention from will def be the script.
