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!

Oh hi “Tina”. Why would I care what Sarah does or where she ends up? Stealing people’s photos and putting them on porn sites is a crime btw! Especially if it’s children. Sarah should actually be looking into the people who posted her photos on those sites! You seem to have a really vested interest in it? Talk about it a lot. Maybe you have some info to share?
Hi I’m not sure if you are confused or what is going on but this is a “Bird papaya” snark page. I don’t know who Jan and Tina are and I’m pretty sure a few people here are confused about whatever it is you keep going on about. I think you might be on the wrong sub maybe.
Hmmmm that’s a strange accusation. Do you have any concrete proof of these fake accounts? I was part of the old Reddit group and don’t remember any outrageous posting from anyone in that group. The group was shut down because of the reposting of the sports illustrated images which were apparently copy right protected. Whatever argument you have going on with this Janette person doesn’t really seem relevant to a sub about the birds papaya. You could make your own Janette sub if you like and see if anyone would like to continue the conversation over there. Just trying to help, seems like your kind of screaming into the wind over here 🤷♀️
You were part of the Sarah snark and never heard of Janette? Interesting. Do you remember when someone made a “threat” to Janette in the sub, and it went private briefly? The “threat” was made by one of Jan’s many admirers. You can recover this stuff using a certain website. So my guess is, she made a fake threat to gain sympathy for herself. Oh and her and the mods were asked about it directly and pretended they didn’t know. It’s very manipulative. You’re lucky if you’ve never heard of her! Anyway, toodles! Xoxo @annie.body_76
