Not to defend her comment but I *think* what she was trying to say here was that strangers assumed they were her own kids, in which case it would have been obvious they had two different fathers because one child was black and the other was a blonde white girl, and in some people's eyes that would make her a 'slut'. (Obviously having kids by different fathers doesn't actually make anyone a slut, nor does anything because it's a stupid concept in the first place, nor is it even particularly unusual nowadays for women to have children with different dads.) I don't think it was her intention to say she looked like a slut because she was holding a black baby, but jeez, it's not hard to read back what you've written before publishing it and realise people could very easily interpret it that way.I felt so much rage when she said that. I mean, how bleeping racist is that to imply that just because one of the foster children were black, then that would have somehow made her ‘a slut’? Would she still have been considered a slut if the baby had been white? That tells me more about what she thinks than anything else and it isn’t bloody pretty.
ETA Am on a grunk, so soz if this is totally random at this juncture.
(Also on a grunk here so I'm sorry if this has been addressed already.)
Yes, that's pretty much my reading of it. Of course there is the 1864 version of Southend that Jack appears trapped in where they were all probably scandalised at seeing a women without a bonnet or a wedding ring walking the streets like a brazen hussy.
This is from an article in the independent about Miguel Barclay. I just watched him on this morning on you tube. A natural in front of the cameras and also advising people to shop at different supermarkets to keep costs low. No hysterical giggling or rinsing beans in sight.

The problem is, the interaction never happened, so it’s clearly just Jack’s own racist and sexist attitudes, projected.
It's a recurrent theme with Jack. She so desperately wants to be the main character she invents these bizarre scenarios that end up saying more about her own weird attitudes than anyone else. The overwhelming majority of people are too busy dealing with their own tit and going about their business to be walking about looking for 'sluts' to shame.
Perhaps she was wearing a very large bustle that day, which betrayed her as a woman of loose morals.
Shame she's too common and coarse for it.
I really don't understand squigs like green. Jack herself has posted links for tip jars, PayPal etc, has accepted Patreon money for no content, at various times has cried poverty and said she can't afford butter/broadband/rent, only has £19/34/44/116 in her bank account... I'm sure there's other examples I'm forgetting, but Jack has never missed an opportunity to bemoan her alleged lack of money and subsequently accept money from strangers. She has made it a talking point. Don't want people to ask questions? Stop grifting.View attachment 1285310

Not squigging because she has 80k followers.
Hitching her skirt up giving onlookers a glimpse of ankle.
Except Jack has never been on universal credit. She thinks she’s too good for it.
Whatever = being on the grift from people poorer than her. She’s not earning it. She’s grifting.
pmsl @ slander.
This is such a misguided, backwards take for exactly the reasons we so often discuss here...but beyond that, what is this tit about "earning the right" to make a decent living? It's not something earned by those Twitter deems worthy FFS!
i predict jack's response will be 'I'M NOT EARNING ANYTHING FIONNA'
Fionna, poppet, totally missing the point. We want her to earn. Just admit that you earn and how you earn and stop BEGGING from people who are literally on benefits! Geddit?!
"Earning"
Like. She’s a tit cook. She’s a bully. She’s vile and nasty. Does she deserve these opportunities more than someone like Miguel who also has a young child? Because she was on benefits for a year over a decade ago? She is not OWED a living because she was once poor.

I don't think anyone disputes that she should earn a living from books, TV, appearances etc etc
Personally I don't think Patreon is her earning a living and that's where I have issues with her. If she actually DID something for her subscribers then I wouldn't have a problem with it but instead she rattles a tip jar and offers nothing but poison on twitter. That's not EARNING a living
Christ on a bike Fionna! No one is saying she can't or shouldn't EARN a living. It's the GRIFTING we object to.
