Call me heartless but are those tweets any worse than accusing David Walliams of being a racist coke addict?

not condoning, just ignoring.
Just because Jack behaves badly on twitter, two wrongs don’t make a right. Plus there is a pretty nasty edge around relapse to those tweets.

You know what they say! If it’s too good to be true, Jack made it up

I don't think it's worse, but both things are bad and it's ok to call both people who said those things an arsehole. X

Not condoning at all, however do think that Jack needs to think carefully about what she puts on twitter and be held accountable for the damage she causes (all too often). Many people have been triggered by the things she’s said and we can all get angry and upset and say things in the heat of the moment. This person could be all of the above.

ets - twitter is nothing but negativity in my opinion. Jack has certainly used it to actually try to take people down.

Jack will see the tweets when she reads themhere, but they seem to be from some of who is unwell and has got the wrong end of the stick rather than some one trolling her.
I wonder if they should be deleted by a mod.
I do agree the person has misunderstood what Jack was saying but her comment about recovering alcoholics is quite cruel both in a general and specific way.

I know HotelGate has been a fun distraction but I am still astonished she hasn’t mentioned Marcus and Tom. Giving their first shopping list and video a welcome boost to hundreds of thousands of potential people is not to be forgotten. Especially if she IS somehow involved (although after reading that stinging GQ article, I have even more doubt about that).

I add my voice to the idiot troll tweets being firmly banished forthwith - I have also reported them. Jack - you are an absolute melt with your cringeworthy and dishonest behaviour. Your poverty and illness cosplaying is reprehensible. I am still half convinced the alcoholism is exaggerated for sympathy and clicks. It certainly doesn’t mean I would ever try to actively distress you or add to your clear problems.

I've had a more in depth look at angry squiggles twitter. It's definitely a negative account. Lots of tweets wanting to hold various organisations to account which is fair enough. Lots of pro women tweets, again fine but one or two veering on the darker side such as the death penalty and anti Meghan Markle stuff. I'm not sure what it's all about but this squiggle is quite aggressive their tweets.

If she does see the troll tweets, you can be sure she'll make a hoo-haa and do the old 'oh there are thousands of them m8, this is just one example' routine. Please bugger off, actual troll.

I am really sorry to be Mumsnet here, but can you please point me to this article? I thought I'd adequately grunka'd but I've missed this and looking at the GQ website there's nought much that seems relevant to Jack.

Here you go! (She gets a brief mention)

I've been binge watching one of those hoarders programmes (makes me feel better about my domestic chaos as I can even clean the floor!) and I've seen food from years ago that doesn't look as bad as some of Jack's concoctions.
Mr SM loves those programs. He thinks that his auction/car boot habit doesn’t mean he’s a hoarder!

I haven't been to visit my parents in ages (due to the THING), but is there a branch of Dishoom in Manc these days? Best avoided...

Evening ninnies. Sorry I’ve not been around much lately. Hope you’re all doing splendidly.
Has she gone viral yet?

She hasn't gone viral, Del Monte must be weeping tears of pure pineapple juice at how little engagement they're getting as a result of being associated with her. The viral thing does make me wonder - what happened to her longest COVID that required scent rehabilitation (i.e. eating a reeking kipper)?

If I were having a treatment I didn't want people to know very much about, and I had to travel to a different city to have that treatment, I might not mention it on Twitter (or any SM) at all. She *wants* us to ask about it so she can be all, "I'll DM you hun", but not actually DM you because that would almost be, dare I say it, "normal" (whatever that means).
