If you have an opinion on anything that differs in any way from kissing the ass of someone, you’re a bully. Fair enough, be disgruntled with the people who are saying she’s got cankles or whatever was claimed (I didn’t see those comments personally) but to delete the comments where people are saying it’s in distaste being paid to visit a foodbank etc, she just doesn’t want to allow anyone to have any sort of opinion other than that she is “precious of heart”. So trying to dictate the way people think and what they can and can’t say, that’s not bullying just to clarify.
The mental health card that keeps being played is really beginning to grate with me. I grew up with a parent who has battled severe depression throughout her adult life. I remember having to dress and feed my younger siblings because my parent wasn’t physically able. The way these bloggers throw around this whole “self care” listen to a podcast shite is just so not what anyone with mental health issues wants to hear. If my Mum is having a bad day, she can barely wash, dress and feed herself. These are basic human rights. And here you have someone who has such a wonderful platform that she could really do something to resonate with viewers about mental health, homelessness, food banks, breast lump screenings, but instead she’s frittering away any sort of real credibility she may have by diluting her message with Next ADs, free gifts, luxury skincare that’s gifted, the list goes on.
I’ve said this already but the vlog last night just didn’t make sense. A visit to a foodbank mixed in with a shopping trip, a coffee at Starbucks, presents for her children and a meal out. I think she wants it to be “organic” content but a day in the life doesn’t marry with the partnership she was being paid to advertise. And then as if that’s not enough, to then have a grid post of yet another paid partnership sitting on another frivolous gifted item looking at a bloody pavlova, it genuinely beggars belief. This is supposed to be her full time job.. yes I get she will have deadlines to meet, but surely she has the time if she is working and planning these things methodically to figure out what would be a good grid post at a certain time, which vlog to use etc.
I sincerely hope when they are reading through all these threads, that they understand that whilst people are hacked off - a lot of what is written here are ways for her to try and salvage any sort of reputation she may have left. It’s not rocket science, she really could work blooming hard into 2019 to make her channel something that viewers can once again relate to and trust in again.
