Just joined Tattle (hi! 
) to say that I'm appalled by the virtual signalling in Jess' latest post.
Last June, I called her out on a post where she made excuses for Rebecca Meldrum's racist YouTube debacle. There was some discussion about it on here - it's the post where she has her arse hanging out on the beach (well, one of the many). My message to her was completely reasonable - I explained why Rebecca Meldrum was so hurtful and offensive (particularly at that time because RM was refusing to acknowledge how problematic the video was or apologise for it). I didn't swear or insult Jeas. She blocked me and deleted my comment and I was flamed so much in my DMs by her minions that I deleted my Instagram account.
Today I see she has decided to join the #blackouttuesday movement and is preaching about how important equality is to her.
I feel so helpless and frustrated. I wrote a long message to her, but then decided not to post it. My well-thought-out message to try and get her to understand would just be deleted again within minutes and I would be blocked.
I hate hate hate the insincerity of people like Jess Avey, Mrs Meldrum and This Mama Life (Sarah) jumping on a socio-political bandwagon they don't really give a shit about just for the Insta likes.
