Jameela and Josie backing away

I’ve checked as much as I can and apparently Jameela Jamil and Josie Long (I’m not sure who she is but lots of followers) have deleted their tweets supporting Mermaids. Jameela also seems to have removed her unpleasant tweet(s) to JK Roeling (I don’t think I’ve missed them on the searches) An interesting development.

Just had a nosey JJ's insta has cleared off any mermaids reference. Just the odd trans post

Disfordarkchocolate · 11/08/2020 15:58

Josie Long is so woke I'm surprised she can function in the real world. I used to be a fan but this constant navel gazing while ignoring the ingrained oppression of women we see and live with everyday just pissed me right off.

Maybe it’s because JJ is associated with projects like this:

Still reading thread & don't use twitter, just click the links here. Has anyone asked J why she's deleted those tweets?

EileenAlanna · 11/08/2020 17:04

@JamieLeeCurtains I know, how full of yourself do you have to be to do that. We're not Following each other so it's not like any Tweets of mine would show up on her feed, afaik.

What a pile of cack. I’m not 7 years of age to get a ‘BFF band’. So much focus on gender... so much focus... none on sex or domestic violence. I’m amazed they bothered with (actual, real) disabilities for a change.

I had never heard of Danielle before this thread.

So I clicked on their website and maybe I am totally totally blind but I can see zero pictures of Danielle looking like a woman. In every single photo they are dressed like a gender conforming man.

www.daniellemuscato.com/ and then click on bio and photos.

With this I just go, how can people not see this? How can people say of yes she's a woman. It really is the emporers new clothes.

Jameela has her autobiography coming out soon. Was supposed to be this year but pushed back to next year due to covid. I'd imagine HarperCollins have told her to delete in anticipation of her inevitable shitty PR in 2021.

SerenityNowwwww · 11/08/2020 17:23

Danielle says so. That’s kind of the whole point.

When I was a child it was well known that if someone lied I would throw a fit. This was especially true if the lie was bloody obvious ie if my sister nicked the last chocolate bar from the sweetie tin and told mum to her face in front of me that I took it, or if another sibling said something stupid like ‘your name isn’t serenity, it’s Bob’ (I was preschool aged I have to admit). They used to gang up and see how angry I could get (my adorable siblings).

Apparently it was called The Rage and had the effect of the Tasmanian Devil. ‘You’re lying - I know you are lying - we both know you are lying - how can you look me on the face and lie like that??????’

I get the same thing these days with this sort of thing.

ScrimpshawTheSecond · 11/08/2020 17:24

It's weird. Why would people be suddenly removing any reference to mermaids? What is going on?

SerenityNowwwww · 11/08/2020 17:25

Maybe they have the same PR company?

midclegs · 11/08/2020 17:48

Is it really the case that JJ has been removing tweets about Mermaids - if she has deleted ALL tweets prior to June 2020 it could be the case that she just didn't tweet anything about them until now?

There is one from 2019; within the film clip the youth references Jameela messaging regarding - but it has been deleted - but this is 2019?

And I don't think JL has been deleting tweets?

Double-checked. Apart from 1 tweet she has deleted everything prior to July 1st. Perhaps she does want to wipe the slate clean but I don't think it's just about Mermaids?

SerenityNowwwww · 11/08/2020 17:52

Doing a bit of housekeeping huh?

Floisme · 11/08/2020 17:57

If it's purely housekeeping and nothing to do with Mermaids then I'm sure she will be keen to clarify...

SerenityNowwwww · 11/08/2020 17:58

When does she never tweet a thought?

JoysOfString · 11/08/2020 18:01

I'm a bit conflicted about people like Muscato. On the one hand, not even making any effort to appear to be a woman seems like a pisstake. On the other, trying to somehow "be" a woman by performing stereotyped femininity with hair, heels, make-up, dresses etc does not bring a man any closer to being a woman either IMO. I think what Muscato is doing shows us the logical conclusion of self-ID - any many, however masculine-looking and behaving, just has to say he's a woman and the door is open. And that exposes the idiocy for what it is brilliantly - whether or not that's muscato's intent.

JoysOfString · 11/08/2020 18:02

man not many!

JJ has said that it is not specific, just making her account more 'focused'.

I would bet that her publisher has made her clean up if they are to invest in marketing her book.

SerenityNowwwww · 11/08/2020 19:23

Book. Is it one on philosophy?

NecessaryScene1 · 11/08/2020 19:29

For those who missed it, Magdalen Berns did one on Danielle Muscato. One of my favourites:

thornyhousewife · 11/08/2020 19:29

Autobiography called, wait for it..... Shame.

SerenityNowwwww · 11/08/2020 19:31

Shame about what?

Shame about the feminism, luv
Shame about that sparkly pony
Shame about the lawsuit
Shame about the cancellation
Just Shame...

ScrimpshawTheSecond · 11/08/2020 19:45

Shame on you, if you can't dance too.

Good song.
