Comment:

 Thanks for your detective work, offgridpro. I've downloaded AddThis and
 reproduced the problem.

 The issue is that AddThis is doing something funky to the_content, and
 they're doing it *after* other filters have run. You can temporarily fix
 the problem by finding the following line in
 addthis/addthis_social_widget.php (around 1067):
 {{{
         add_filter('the_content', 'addthis_display_social_widget', 15);
 }}}
 and changing the number 15 to something less than 10, eg
 {{{
         add_filter('the_content', 'addthis_display_social_widget', 5);
 }}}

 It's possible that we could do a better job avoiding these kinds of
 conflict in BuddyPress. I'm moving this ticket to 1.8 so the dev team can
 discuss.
