I went on there to read about a minor influencer and lurked on a few threads. I found most of the comments were feedback about this woman’s business practises with a minority of admittedly nasty comments.
I read a few other threads and actually learnt a lot about influencers making money from pyramid ‘life coaching’ schemes (basically conning people) and raving about a product without mentioning they’d been paid to, or buying followers who coincidentally had Russian names.
It’s possible I missed some of the worst threads but I think it uncovers a lot of people making money by doing nothing at best and conning people at worst. One of the threads I read was about a man so I don’t think it’s just women slagging off women.
It’s not great, but neither’s the daily Mail. Unfortunately being offensive is just part of social media and I see just as many nasty comments on the daily Mail, a few on Mumsnet, Facebook, Twitter etc
