I lurk on those Sali threads likeSali is a deeply unpleasant woman , read up all the threads .
Just reading that gave me diarrhoea.
I will never, ever understand why non-binary people are always lumped in with women. I suppose it's just the underclass consisting of "not men". For someone who supposedly spent a long time looking inwards and questioning her gender, Jack certainly can be a terrible (if, I suspect, unthinking) misogynist.
Thing is, there was a time when she was doing the "not poor anymore" thing. During her relationship with Allegra, she did a lot of interviews about how much her life had improved. Her second cookbook wasn't all about eating for 50p, it was just recipes for families.I think a few of us have touched on this but the idea that we were touched by/rooting for JM on account of the ‘tragic’ backstory makes sense... I think we’re all particularly empathetic and sensitive but then also feel it quite acutely when we feel we’ve been deceived. I’m passionate about social justice and fair treatment and it’s horrible to feel played but even worse when people more vulnerable are still being exploited. I totally agree that a much more powerful message would be for JM to stop the poverty cosplay (thanks @heretoreaditall2019, that’s a magnificent description!) and embrace a more honest and inspirational ‘this is what I did, this is who helped me’ message but obvs the ego won’t allow for that.
Plus lots of people are having the worst time of their lives. She's one of the few who have made money out of this situation, so get to fuck.No one is tweeting her about it are they? Just the usual 'Jack you're so amazing' bile. She's actively reading here then getting pissy about what's being said... Why don't YOU get off of OUR backs, Jack
She had that rant up, then deleted it. You are not seeing things.Did she just have that rant and then delete it immediately or was I seeing things?
I think she deleted it. Though i appear to have ranted to myself above somehow, so who am I to talkDid she just have that rant and then delete it immediately or was I seeing things?

Spot on! I am only thinking out loud (don't sue me) but these random rants seem to happen when book promoting. The I'm hard done by, poor me, I'm having a tough time etc to get the books sold. See the I've just written the book on bad days, now I am......Plus lots of people are having the worst time of their lives. She's one of the few who have made money out of this situation, so get to fuck.
