How are you sure she’s aware she has an ED and isn’t in compete denial? I don’t think it’s that deep. Her perception of beauty is clearly diff to yours. Not saying that it’s mine, but if a plus size lady can post fit pics and vids then why can’t someone who’s skinny? If people are triggered then they shouldn’t be using social media, or should mute triggering accounts.

She probs just posts the content because she feels good about herself. I don’t think she feels it that hard. She probably can’t see how thin she looks. EDs and body dysmorphia can warp your perception of beauty and self. What she sees on the videos and in the mirror probably isn’t the same as what we can see. When the time comes she will probably take a break and get better.
I really don't think you understand my point. Either that, or you're so obsessed w/ defending Olivia you will try to contradict anyone who tries to question her regardless of the point being made. People are talking about her ED b/c she has quite literally admitted to it herself?
No one is speculating here... we all know about it. How can she be in ''complete denial'' if she has said herself that she has an ED?
If a plus size woman was promoting unhealthy behaviours people would be definitely people calling her out.
It's not about ''beauty'' or the ''perception'' of it. We are literally talking about her health. People are concerned b/c she is posting things that are a) triggering and b) unhealthy. Just b/c she has an ED that does not negate her responsibility towards her viewers.
She is a content creator, she should be mindful about what she posts and how it's going to affect her followers (i.e. the people that able her to live her lifestyle). So, if she is not thinking too ''deep'' about it, she should probably start to.
Like I said to the person above, maybe try advocating for her followers once for a change - considering you are one of them.
Of course people can unfollow/mute, but how do you think those body-checking photos will affect a 12/13 year old that looks up her?
Do you think they have the maturity to umute accounts that affect their well-being? Most people that age don't have the self-awareness to do that.
The world does not revolve around Olivia - you (and her other defenders) need to realize that her actions do affect other people - whether she likes it or not. And struggling with a mental health issue (be it an ED or anything else) does not excuse anyone from selfish and thoughtless behaviour.
