Shame needs to helps his wife find better filters. The Birds Papaya’s filter glitches are stupid obvious. Watch this video on her stories and pay attention to the filter legs. The filter reminds me of the Aliens movie. Her tummy pops on and off.

        I have a legitimate question: what is with the obsession? It’s one shallow Instagram model who’s full of herself and pretends to be all natural when she isn’t. There are hundreds like her. I don’t get it.

          Well for starters, this particular Instagram model (thebirdspapaya or TBP) built her entire platform on being so-called “body positive”. She has made millions lying to people and has triggered other people’s body dysmorphia with her actions, including pre/teenage girls. TBP has been credibly accused of plagiarism and stealing from BIPOC creators. She has co-opted conditions such as Pre-menstrual Dysphoric Disorder to warrant sympathy whenever she’s feeling low due to being called out (her symptoms mysteriously disappear otherwise). Recently TBP pretended she had a breast cancer scare when it was just a routine follow up that hundreds of women go through every day. TBP frequently uses her children for content, including a preschool aged daughter and another (newly) adult daughter who has said she does not want to be featured on her page. TBP also goes to great measures to silence any criticism against her, no matter how constructive. The reason why we are here is because she shut down the aforementioned subreddit page although we didn’t break any rules. Many of us only found the subreddit in the first place because she blocked us (I personally was blocked on IG for liking a comment on a collaborator’s post that simply stated TBP looked different on her own page). TBP enlists her inner circle and brands she collaborates with in silencing people, even companies like Women’s Health Magazine and Reitman’s. It makes one wonder what she has to hide. Finally, TBP attempted to bully Janette Ewen, a lifestyle journalist into silence by serving her with a bs cease and desist letter. Janette ignored it as the filtering and plagiarism is easily proven.

          While we mostly talk about TBP here (as it is her new snark page), we recognize the issue is with influencing as a whole. Many of us are members of other snark pages on Reddit where we talk about other influencers and their harmful actions. If influencing is a job (according to these women), why are they above criticism? Consider this TBP’s personal Yelp page where former “customers” can provide feedback (in case you didn’t know, thebirdspapaya is a corporation and she is the CEO). While some of the posts are petty know that most of us are working towards something greater, ideally a world where influencers are better regulated (currently there is exceedingly little keeping them in check).
