To think Tattle is disgusting?

I was just searching for a lady I have followed on Instagram for some time (The Nurse Mum) who's little boy Jaxon sadly died. She's doing a ball event and I wanted to find out more info......anyway, after putting her name into Google I came across a website called Tattle with her name there. I've never seen this website before but having gone onto it my god it's awful! Such evil spouting from women about other people....I couldn't read on it was just so horrible and contrived.

How is something like that allowed to operate? Makes some of the 'harsh' comments on here look lovely 😕

I’m not familiar with the site but if you put yourself out there then you’re opening yourself up to scrutiny. I guess those being written about could get a real job??

I read the entire latest Lauren Goodger thread on there earlier after seeing this thread. On that thread people were:

Comparing her to various unattractive/overweight comedy characters

Criticising her looks including her weight, eyebrows, her face in general

Speculating that her daughter isn’t developing normally and may have autism - in fairness, some posters argued against attempting to diagnose her

Implying that she must be a nightmare to live with therefore who knows what drove her boyfriend to beat her up

Suggesting that maybe it was in self defence and she was probably drunk/on drugs

Accusing her of exaggerating her injuries and picking holes in her account of her injuries or hospital details

Accusing her of faked paparazzi photos of her injuries and saying she wanted attention so paraded herself around for sympathy

Accusing her of applying makeup and eyeliner on her black eye to exaggerate it

Saying that because she’d logged into her Only Fans account recently, she can’t be that upset (some posters pay to be members so can see her last seen status)

Berating her for posting a story of her new hairstyle saying she’s so selfish and only cares about “self love” and that she’s not acting the way a bereaved mother should

There’s also a Wiki at the top of the thread detailed the various nicknames they use for her, photos mocking her appearance, examples of her bad spelling and grammar and making fun of this, and on balance they’ve included examples of problematic things she’s done, for example during lockdown.

So this isn’t just criticising someone’s political or otherwise harmful beliefs and practices. I’m all for that, if they want to draw attention to the terrible behaviours and predatory natures of certain Celebs regarding exploiting fans for money etc then all power to them.

But they go way further than that by attacking the person’s looks and other things they can’t control. And I have to say that at that point, it’s not just healthy criticism but downright obsessive fan behaviour then.

If you go to the Lime Gossip site, which can be accessed via Tattle, you will find an interview from Helen the administrator. It is a Q&A style interview, one of the questions is about not posting threads about people with mental health issues, and those who have lost children. Yet there are dozens of threads about Lauren, and they are really cruel.
