…only you don’t look like “this”. Edges of body, especially legs are so blurred and warped. Assuming most influencers having high res phone cameras — most her body videos seem to be low res. (for a reason)
I posted this in another thread or whatever these things are called, but I’m pretty sure there’s going to be a partnership announced with that company that does the anti-bloat stuff? I went into block a few more influencers last night, and then started getting the ads for arrae 🙄. Companies should not be comparing themselves to a medication that is medically necessary for some people that main stream has just adopted as being a quick fix. But here this company is likening themselves to that med. I report the ads like this as scams. Of course, below, they clarify that this is not been approved by the FDA to cover their asses, but it reminds me of high school going into a supplement store and being able to buy things like Hydroxycut at the age of 15 because everybody and their mother were advertising it and magazines like oxygen, etc. As someone who did struggle with a severe eating disorder for years, I will say that the targeted ads that I’ve been getting that correlate with some Canadian influencers are extremely problematic in convincing people that using a product will make you look completely different within an hour. They almost feel like people approaching you in a grocery store parking lot trying to convince you to buy weight loss teas, except those types of people listen when you say not interested (And they are sadly often roped into MLM’s as a last ditch effort to make money on false promises so I feel bad for those type of people) but instead we’re bombarded constantly with the diet industry ads and collabs. I think we need to stop using the word influencer and start using the word “pushers”.
I fully expect this too. She has a greasy snake-oil salesperaon vibe. Ewww
Yeah, and it is totally inappropriate for brands to claim things, but then state that they’re not approved by the FDA. Fun fact, though, did you know that the origins of snake oil actually started with Chinese immigrants who were essentially indentured slaves working on the Railroad. They brought with them medicine made with the water snake which was found in China and it did actually alleviate a lot of pain symptoms as a lot of natural medicines can when used appropriately especially ones that had been proven to work for thousands of years. But then, of course, greedy Americans and I think there was a guy whose last name was Stanley? Started the whole thing of using like rattlesnake oil, but then they found that he wasn’t even using rattlesnake oil. It was like mineral oil or something? Go read about it it’s crazy! But yeah, basically Chinese immigrants did really bring legitimate snake oil with them that did help with things and then a white colonizer ended up trying to make profit from selling something but didn’t even have the ingredients in it. Hence its negative connotations with lying/cheating people out of $.
This is fascinating! Thanks for this new rabbit hole! I’m not surprised in the least. It’s the same thing with marijuana and other Earth medicines that the government makes illegal so the pharmaceutical companies can thrive. The FDA is complicit in this, too. It’s all a complete mindfuck.
