Hey its okay to rant, the whole rant is a basic mood when it comes to the Maria Jackson slander on twitter rn, especially with the BS of acting like Maria is only good because the posters get Chrissie like??? You guys wanna villainise and hate a literal child and bring her down in favor of Rani (which is why as the two were shown to be chill with each other in Maria's cameo in Mark of the Beserker), but then stan a woman who literally cheated on her husband and left him and their child in favor of the man she cheated on said husband with??? And like I noted on my prior reblog in tags: we never hear ANYTHING about shared custody. If anything, it looks like Alan has full custody as Maria never mentions having to go to her moms cause custody reasons and Chrissie is only shown visting as you put it, when she wants something and while she's at it, trashes Alan and even Sarah Jane and Luke, her daughter's friends and acts surprised Pikachu her daughter finally blows up at her in Eye of the Gorgon about everything really. This means despite acting like she cares about her child, Chrissie clearly didn't fight for any form of custody rights, which is just...wow, just wow.

Also beyond true to what Maria did for the show and the characters around her- she not only entered the show after her parents divorce but she serves as our SJA Rose Tyler in a way: finding out about our main character and aliens and ultimately choosing to join in instead of move on and ignore it. Like, she literally ran back into the factory for Kelsie despite the risks with doing that, and rescued Luke despite the fact that she didn't have too, let alone as we see in Lost Boy, without Maria or Luke or Clyde, Sarah goes back to being cold to everyone, even admittng to seeing her as famly/a daughter in Maria's exit scene, hence why she acted like the way she did in the episode. And like, to drag all this down because sexism when treating certain female characters or because favoring the shitty mother over her child or just having too many expectations for child characters, is just pure shitty...let alone making a January 6th joke about Maria because she lives in America (seriously can't get over seeing that).

Okay I really don't get the evil Maria Jackson memes on twitter rn, because how anyone watching Maria in S1-2 of SJA and saying she's evil, even jokingly???
