@GoldenKelpie It shows the depths to which bots will sink to manipulate their downlines. They know all about exploitation.

I have lost two people to CoVid and another friend is permanently damaged.
If I came across an in-your-face CoVid denier not wearing a mask or social distancing, they'd have a lot more than a black eye to worry about.

In Sleaze's case, it might be that his sudden street activism has alerted one of the many victims of his long list of scams as to his whereabouts, and they have exacted overdue retribution...

Seems Yawn’s run out of stuff in the house and caravan to pimp so she’s started on her clothes...

Quote from Wig - "I can edit what I want to make it the truth, it's a free world".

Sleaze has got a black eye. Reckons he got it when confronting some yoof who were picking on a disabled homeless woman like the utter hero we all know he is.

Far more likely he walked into a wall.

Quote from Wig - "I can edit what I want to make it the truth, it's a free world".

Wow. Readily admitting to lying. That's impressively stupid, even by her standards.

But I thought it wasn’t a free world and we are all being controlled by the banks and Trump is going to set us all free? Make your mind up, love.

Wig and sleaze back in london trying to get the masses to catch covid. Just put on your big boy pants, put on a mask when going into shops and keep a bit of distance between you and the person next to you - it isnt that hard

Hi everyone. I dip into this thread from time. Over the years Ive known my fair share of bots. Arbon a while back and more recently Forever living, aloe vera stuff. A relative (actually mentioned on this thread a few years ago) lost a lot of money...not to mention friends.
I wanted to ask about tropic? I know its mlm some say not as bad as some of the others?
Recently lots of the mums at DCs school have got involved and become Tropic ambassadors. They have recruited a mum that I got to know recently. She is new to the area and desperate to make friends-she is very lonely and I have worries about her partner being controlling. She has a newborn and has had mental health problems. She has also had some serious money/debt issues and lost her home a year or so back and is now in council rented accommodation.
What kind of upfront costs will my friend have had to pay? I heard it was quite tricky to make any money, is it the case you only make money recruiting/downlines? Is it target driven.
I want to speak to he about it but want to be armed with a bit of knowledge. Ive already been accused of being jealous, negative and unsupportive. I really want to help her see sense if I possibly can.
Any knowledge, insights or articles that anyone has would be great. Thanks

Hello @PickledChicory - have a look at this article on Tropic: www.talentedladiesclub.com/articles/how-much-can-you-earn-with-mlm-tropic-skincare/

There’s no such thing as a good MLM - it’s a flawed business model. It’s similar to gambling as the house always wins. Forever Fibbing bots used to say that Forever wasn’t as bad as Herbalife.

Here’s another excellent video about the way MLM bots exploit charities and well-meaning donors to line their own pockets.

October is Breast Cancer awareness month so they money-grabbing virtue-signalling scamming MLM bots will be taking full advantage.

Apparently it's the "biggest day in human history". They were less annoying when they were flogging their dodgy bitcoin schemes.

My hod that appalling Andrew Wakefield is speaking at the Idiots Assemble rally
I see he’s still using the Dr title - wasn’t he struck off?

My god

My young but very focussed beautician took up with Tropic last year. I graciously accepted the proffered catalogue, returned it without comment and without order. She was waving Tropic products in front of customers’ faces, and extolling their miraculous properties, the whole time.

After a few months she became normal again, all the Tropic shite disappeared. But then she is genuinely running her own business, so likely knows her way around a spreadsheet and could smell the BS fairly quickly.

I wonder if she lost any clients? If my beautician or hairdresser started promoting MLM products I’d go elsewhere.

Is Obsydien rebranded Plexus white label crap? Noticed that Broke is posting about the "pink drink", which was (is?) a Plexus special.

I’ve had a look at the ingredients in both and it doesn’t appear to be. Plexus pink drink is full of caffeine and this one doesn’t appear to have any.
They are both very similar in the way that they don’t actually do fuck all, but that’s it.

I think we have a new strap line for all MLMs

‘Don’t actually do fuck all’

Re the latest financial scandal on BBC website. Check under headline fin CEN files. Document shows fraud -pyramid scheme 💵💴

Definitely Sponge!
I saw on FB broke had joined a WFH group. He tried to get away without adding 'company' info when trying to make new friends but one person called him out for that and sending her a friend request. Lots of people thought he sounded great and how great he wasn't spamming them!

That’s an eye watering read @Getthekettleon2020! Here’s the link for anyone who wants to read it: www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-54225572

@Spongebobette - is that a double negative?
