June and July are typically a lot slower for influencers so I wonder if this is affecting her. I am honestly surprised that she hasn’t jumped on to hawking Amazon shit to bring in more income because it would be extremely lucrative for her even with a couple of links per day. I personally hate Amazon with a passion and think it’s a shady way to earn a living because it’s all crap they share, I am just surprised she hasn’t gone that way to bring in extra money.
I realize that we all have to somehow take part in capitalism and a lot of things people can only get by going to big box, stores, or Amazon, but I always think it’s a big win for the planet and a loss for billionaires when influencers post less about consuming. I never actually want influencers to over consume and thereby influence others yo do the same. I’ll give credit where credit is due and I hope this is a trend that continues and that all the other shine people also stop pushing everyone to buy all the time. Little victories for the planet are little victories am I right? We need less fast fashion (instead let’s support local and small and NO s&t isn’t small) , more activism (or even some activism like speaking up for Sudan, DRC and Palestine, and trans kids) and less trips (local shops need influencers to give them business to drive business). When I see even small changes I HOPE they are moving to being more authentic (I won’t get my hopes up too much but you never know). Calling people out on snarks is the only way they can see what people think and it’s necessary to demand more from people on platforms.
