Welcome new members! Please take a second to read the rules located in the community sidebar.

We are doing our best to appeal the Reddit ban. In the meantime, we thought it might be nice to have a new safe space to snark and have made lemmy.ca our new home.

Please bear with us while we figure the new site out and please let any former TBP Reddit users know we are here!

    I was thinking a snark about Knix could work. We can talk about the brand partners and ambassadors, about how Knix says it’s inclusive but it’s cut out it’s trans influencer now that they don’t need her anymore, how it manipulated the SI appearance, how its product is too expensive and generally sucks. How its founder is hypocrite, the weird relationship between the Princess and Queen Panties. It seems like she is her personal pet project. She’s helping the poor, divorced, young, single mother live her dreams of taking off her clothes for money

      I’d be willing to bet Knix/Joanna has a lot to do with getting the sub banned. Birdie doesn’t have that kind of money or power, but Joanna does.

        I was saying the same thing. Literally the day before the sub was banned, there was a post on our sub showing those negative Glassdoor reviews for knix. Then all of a sudden the next morning we are wiped out. We also even had one private sub that was not an actual replacement, nothing on there would’ve alluded to it being the case imo, and still banned. Its ridiculous

        I really like the idea of starting a sub , even if a private one, with our same members but make it very clearly not a replacement. Like even just state its for our members to hang out and discuss anything, influencer culture or pop culture etc. I would be interested to see if it gets shut down, even if any TBP reference was written cryptically or something. Idk I am upset. I’m glad to see this new site, struggling learning to navigate it and to find where things are and figure out who is who 😆

        I feel like it’s good though that we can waste pantyqueen’s $ on hiring people to go and wipe all negative press.then even if they sign NDAs you know they end up in snarks.

      I have bought from knucks (trying to avoid the brand mention) and only 1 product was good :(. As someone in the rainbow community I’m furious to know that this brand dropped a trns influencer! That alone should have started a boyctt
