    I like the comment that points out that Rihanna has an actual team behind her. Was she an absolute boss for that show? Yup! But it’s very likely she has a nanny or childcare dedicated to her child, she has assistants, publicists, and certainly dozens of other people to get everything done. Saying that “oh if she did this, you can too” ignores how much money, privilege, and moving parts went into that show and how not accessible that is to most women- especially the type of women targeted by MLMs.

  • @5thStFoster
    @5thStFoster Год назад +69

    OKAY...regarding Colleen. *Deep Breath*
    #1 - I'm a performer. What Rihanna did at the Super Bowl took some serious energy and stamina. There was no half-a** about it, pregnant or not. That 15 minutes required more energy than most of us use in an entire day.
    #2 - That being said, this performance was in the works for months, and Rihanna had an army of people helping her prepare for it. I expect there was a medical team monitoring her along the way, and she had every resource she could possibly need. Stand-ins during rehearsals allowed her to rest when she needed to. She likely took rest time in the days before and after the performance. This is along the lines of these reps saying "You have the same number of hours every day as Beyoncé." Hours yes, but resources NO! It's not the same, folks.
    Colleen represents everything that is toxic about MLM and hustle culture. It's maddening.

    This whole "you can still work even when you're tired" bit really got me today. I'm living with multiple chronic illnesses and still struggling to figure out how to work every day even from home. I want to work full time in my field but my health is making it really difficult. Today is a particularly hard day due to new medications, a poor sleep and awful pain. I worked for a couple of hours and now I need to rest.
    Yes, I'm blessed to currently be in a position where I can do that, but it isn't something that will last long term. I feel horrible emotionally knowing that I can't function the way that I want to.
    This toxic positivity is just awful. It isn't possible for me to work when I feel as horrible as I do and even though I want to be working, this sort of shaming doesn't motivate me to get up and do more... It really doesn't.

      The whole push by some people to say we need to always be productive, why? Literally why? If that gives you pleasure go for it! It doesn’t give me pleasure. I’ve recently decided to embrace that I’m lazy. Like so what? I never want to hussle, be stressed.

    There’s a crucial thing mentioned in Colleen’s response that it seems people are overlooking. It really caught my attention and I feel it can explain her response. She mentioned her friend called her up and said “solidarity”. To me, this may be why she’s doubling down. She’s surrounded by Yes-men. People who are simply there to agree with everything she says. True friends can lovingly point out when you’ve messed up. And that opinion is going to be listened to much more than the sentiments of people online. Of course she thinks she’s right, everyone around her is TELLING HER she’s right! So unfortunately, until people in her immediate circle hold her accountable…I don’t think her internet followers are going to be able to change her mind.

She seems like the type to ONLY keep people around if they're constantly agreeing with her and either dismissing, fighting against, or getting overly defensive with anyone who does have the 'absolute gall' to disagree with her, before they either leave out of exasperation or her cutting their 'toxicity' out of her life.

      Obviously pregnancy complicates things, but I also don't think people were wrong for expecting more out of a woman who is one of the top performers in the world, despite not putting out an album in years.

    Could the Tiber River thing be BECAUSE they're beginning the online shop only thing? They were likely used to not having as much inventory (I don't know how they did the distribution to their reps) and now have much more that they need to put somewhere. Maybe there's extra costs for something like warehouse space they need, and they used money that was supposed to go to the reps?
    I'm an author and my former indie publisher did this thing handful of years back, where they took money that should've been in escrow, waiting to be paid for authors at the end of the quarter, and used it to some building projects. They're still in operation and signing up new authors and they still owe tens, probably hundreds of thousands to the authors who left after a long period of not being paid on time or at all.
    They banked on the small authors who are owed a few thousand or less not wanting the hassle of suing them because it would get more expensive than what they're owed. So maybe that's what this MLM is doing as well? I assume the money they owe to these poor reps is very small amounts for most of them? They're hoping they won't get sued because it's not worth it?

I did really like the makeup and she came in again and I was ripe for the picking. I seriously considered becoming a rep, even though the sales kits were expensive and I didn't make that much. The least expensive one was $400. She was a top seller and had earned several pink cars. She invited me to her house for a meeting with all of her underlings. Each woman stood up and gave an account of their sales for the week. This woman absolutely ANNHILIATED anyone who's sales were not to her standards. I mean berated, name called, cursed at, it was BRUTAL. I left and never looked back. This was in the early 90s.

    Haven't started this yet, but Hanna's STFU face in the thumbnail is sending me 😆

    I'm not sure what this is called in the United States but in Australia Tiber would be investigated for trading while insolvent if they can't pay their debts and continuing to trade. The government would just bankrupt them.

    Really terrific analysis, as usual, Hannah.

    You know what I love about my 9-5 job...? That I was sick for 3 days and didn't have to worry about it at all. I didn't have my boss saying "Well Rihanna performed Pregnant, so you can work too."

    For Tiber River I feel like the MLM aspect for them was a money grab. They rode it out until they couldn’t and their reps are the ones getting the short end of the stick. Granted, I know nothing of this company but that’s what makes sense to me. They knew it couldn’t be long term and January sales would probably go down if they were transparent with their reps.
