I find this “be kind” shite they spout to be so insulting. What they really mean is “be quiet, buy the constant utter shite I flog so I can keep my ‘job’ and if you dare question me even though I am blatantly lying/advertising falsely and incorrectly, you’ll be blocked and labelled a troll”.
a poster on another thread hit the nail on the head. They said where is the accountability for influencers pushing this unsustainable consumer lifestyle and where is their consideration for the effect it is that having on the younger generation. Those of us who are that bit older might be able to see through it and identify when we are being sold a lie, but what about those that are younger and easily influenced and vulnerable that believe they need new nasty gal clothes every other day , the latest tan etc etc. Do they ever stop to think how them “influencing” affects their followers mental health thinking they have to keep up with these lifestyles and sliding into debt Because of it. It’s disgusting and they should be utterly ashamed of themselves. Accountable my arse. They aren’t accountable for anything they post. These websites would not exist if influencers had an ounce of accountability.
apologies for the rant! I just worry so so much about the younger generation and those that are actually influenced by these people who don’t give a tit about anyone but themselves. It annoys me when they actually believe they are the victims!!!
