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!

She is always looking for ways to talk about her size - especially when she knows her body positive self can’t break character. She hates this world she created where you don’t comment on people’s bodies because she’s craving the compliments on her weight loss. The need to call out that she’s a size 10 - that does not add any value to her blabbing.
Lmfao. Another post about her outward appearance. Like omg stop Birdshit. You are so gross and toxic.
Yes you are so right! I guess she was always a perfect wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend - no need to talk about that kind of growth!! Interesting the more she’s loved herself the more she’s sucked at being a good person. Narcissist doesn’t even quite fit bird, a whole new diagnosis might need to be created.
I know she loves these pictures and no one can tell me differently. There is no other reason because she should know posting them is harmful as well as posting what she didn’t eat that day.
Yet she doesn’t address that she gaslit everybody with that too. Lied to everybody, including Heidi Powell, who also had an ED, just to get attention and fame. Even threw her own sister under the bus and told her ED story to the public, just so she could say “I couldn’t POSSIBLY have an ED because my sister did”. She’s a liar. Always has been and always will be.
She loves them so much she even makes them thinner. From the Canadainfluencer sub on reddit (left is the actual cover, right is what she posted today).
Geez. She's sick
Whoa! That’s wild. Not surprising, mind you. But jeez. She’s not okay.
She is 10000% posting them because she’s actively trying to get back to that size - no one can convince me otherwise. Shes obsessing over it!!!!
And the before and after shots. She’s trying to catch an algorithm because her recent posts have gotten so little engagement. Sarah influences for paychecks. How any woman out there believes she’s anything else baffles and concerns me.
She is losing followers because people are sick and tired of this bullshit. She's so dumb she can't see that!
How can her Stan’s not see right through her?? All she fucking does is post herself all day every day. She’s literally the only person obsessed with her own body and it’s realllllllly showing these days. The nerve of her to post “disordered eating” disclaimers when some of us (me) are RECOVERED anorexics trying to NOT obsess over being skinny. I hate her
I feel you. Her saying she ate nothing for a week triggered me. She's toxic. She needs to be stopped
She’s toxic and I’m sorry that happened
She is in Bahamas and this is her content!!!!! Ewwwwwwwww. I wish I wasn't blocked. I'd comment and rip her a new one!
She must be feeling terribly insecure if she’s editing older photos like this! I wish the other women would call her out on her lies.
She knows she's done.
Hopefully. She must feel invincible, her ego soared even higher when her Reddit sub got shut down. Bird has no brain so her logic is if the sub got shut down it’s because everyone is wrong about how ugly her character is…right?!
Over 6000 members signed up for that sub, and tens of thousands visited. She's not liked. She's a liar and a fraud. The sub may be gone, but she knows the truth.
Seriously, imagine being on a dream vacation and posting this BS? She must be feeling bad about herself around these other women. If I was in the Bahamas I wouldn’t be looking for stuff like this to post, I’d be enjoying myself.
Right! Exactly. She must be so jealous. These flash back posts prove it.
Makes me wonder how many times a day she looks at these pics.
More than we could ever understand, I’m sure of it.
