The block/delete culture, shutting people down, blocking accounts, RESTRICTING (something I didn’t even know existed) and silencing people in general on IG is worse than it ever has been and that’s the main reason that Tattle exists in the first place isn’t it ?
If her PR company are asking her to do this then it’s even more disgusting.
Freedom of speech doesn’t apply in the online world it seems.
And IG just seems to enable silencing.
I don’t agree that everything written on Tattle is always civilised but I do see some really well written, important points being made across the forums that wouldn’t see the light of day elsewhere.
I have had perfectly nicely put comments deleted on IG, I’ve been restricted and then blocked, blocked on what’s app and an entire situation that was about me & the way I had been made to feel, completely swept under the carpet to the point that it’s all completely gone away like it (I) never even happened.
The only thing that couldn’t be controlled was my stories and then if I dared to speak it was called a witch hunt over and over again or I’m trolling. The terms are so overused they’ve lost all meaning.
My name is still dragged through the mud at any given opportunity, my account given out time and time again, even as recent as a few weeks ago re an Engagement that I supposedly revealed (untrue) - all because I told this person I didn’t like the way I was treated and whilst I would never cry mental health or witch hunt it comes to a point that any truth that I, being a smaller account trying to speak will just get drowned out and can be replaced with literally any narrative they choose.
I think that’s why Tattle exists.
And Ive noticed over the last few days so many ‘new members’.
Maybe people are just a bit over being shut down and brushed off by the bigger accounts who are afraid of letting their comments section get too messy.
It seems it’s just got to be all love all the time, or your comments are just not welcome.
It’s tiring.
We can all be labelled as bullies for asking relevant questions by the people who make the most noise and demand the most attention, yet when they do it it’s ok...
