This
completely sums up how I feel about this whole situation. The tears on boomerang are anger, frustration and above all GUILT. It's now a complete mess kicked off by the ridiculous but avoidable behaviour of Rebecca Meldrum on her platforms over the last 3 days. The naming of a contributor from here is shameful and dangerous, the video put up on you tube filmed, in my opinion the day prior around the same time as IG stories and is completely one sided. It makes no reference to what MrsM went on to do or just had done. The doxcubg, stoll no apology for that! Both the stories and video were pre meditated, the stories quickly deleted but MrsM you knew what you were doing. The naming of an individual and encouraging tens of thousands to seek them out, IS bullying, IS inviting hate and IS trolling, above all its illegal! Same could be said for directing the same audience towards this platform, where people have now received death threats? You had your little corner of the Internet, we had ours, neither paths needed to cross.
All you've done is send people over here, who, if they have the time will have their eyes opened as I once did.
7 months ago you mentioned this website, I was curious, came in spoke with attitude in support of you, I even saw screenshots of my supportive comments on your IG slated by tattle members. I spent time reading here and the doubts or frustration I already had in how your channel was heading became clear. I was being taken for a mug, I had purchased items on your recemmendation without you declaring your interest, you had pretended to be 'a friend' of followers, try this, try that, it's the best. All the time not declaring, despite industry regulations, what you were doing. I felt a fool but still supported you. Neither of you ever answered dm's, ever! Regardless of the question or subject. Of course, THAT doesn't count for engagement does it? Then... 6 weeks later you both blocked me for asking how the yoga was going.
Seriously? I became another loyal follower treated like
tit. Like so many that have come here, our only platform to express, to follow and for the largest part support a change in your channel to how it once was and actually to become better. There are TONS of supportive comments on Tattle for you, absolutely loads!
Finally, to the10k that have signed a petition. Well done. But your efforts would have been better put to demanding firstly and most importantly for an awareness about casual racism and why it MUST be stamped OUT. Shame on you for not considering that and directing your energies to something worthwhile.
10K + to get rid of tattle? But consider this. Your time again would be better spent in ensuring that at the very least that the greedy influencers adhere to industry guidelines for declaring advertisements, paid sponsorships, gifted items. I have no problem in anyone doing ads, none at all, but as a consumer I should have an informed CHOICE, that's all we are asking for. The MrsM channel and others have been deliberately misleading consumers and deflecting attention long enough, it has to change.
