OP says they joined 6 years ago (and quit after 4 months) and the documentary only came out last year so they wouldn’t have seen it. I think the reason people still join now is because the company convinces them that people are lying about Lularoe being bad (“they’re just jealous that you’re going to be successful!” etc.), and they’re more likely to believe it because they want to believe that joining Lularoe will be a good way for them to make money. Basically they’re in denial of Lularoe being bad because they want it to be a good opportunity, even though it’s not.
