In the wake of Hogwarts Legacy coming out (which is a fire ass game btw), there's been a bunch of articles about this woman everywhere. I'm trying to find what she did or said that would cause people to hate her this much but, I'm not finding anything :patrice: People acting like she's Hitler :patrice: So, I'm expecting her to be saying fukked up stuff like all gays should die or all trans should die or that they're going to Hell. Messed up stuff like that. All I found was her saying stuff like Men shouldn't go into the same bathrooms as little girls or that Men shouldn't compete in athletic competitions against women. When did we as a society get to the point where these things are problematic :patrice: Like you would be laughed out the room in 1999 arguing for men to use the girl's bathroom :mjlol:

They just hate JK Rowling because she doesn’t believe trans women are women.

And she’s right.

But you disagree with these clowns and they are so emotionally stunted that they lose their shyt and label you a hateful person and act like you’re somehow oppressing them and all kinds of crazy shyt. There’s a certain group within the political Left that is borderline militant with this idea that you must tolerate and believe what they tolerate and believe.

And if you don’t…

The twist here is that there's a trans person in the fukkin game, I think she lowkey hates the game tbh because of that

It's a never ending purity test. No matter how much of an ally you are for them, like you said, if you don't believe 100% of what they believe, you're a fascist homophobe that deserves the gulag. Shyt is wild b. And AFAIC, JK Rowling was one of the more forward thinking authors. She had gay characters in her books before that shyt was mainstream. She also wove themes about racism and discrimination in the story with the mudblood/squib storylines. This was all done in the 90s by the way before it was fashionable. Shorty does one thing they don't like and now she's a terrorist :mjlol:

Nah trans activist have a hate boner against her. She just believes that biology is what defines a woman and stood her ground.

I vividly remember the first time I saw the TERF label trending on twitter, they were mad at her that she didn’t validate them. Then they started to accuse her of causing harm to trans people everytime she expressed her opinion. Worse it got overblown into her wanting the extinction of trans folks, of her financing anti trans organizations( I havent found one single name), of her being transpobic because she used her money to build a shelter for abused women that exclude transwomen.

If you take a look at what she said, she never said a damn thing transpobic, they’re just mad that she’s not down with that "trans women are women" nonsense.

Reminder for anyone on the fence about JK Rowling. For a long time she didnt become a billionaire because she donated so much of her fortune for charity. A lot of her charity efforts were and still are focused on helping poor kids and battered women. Before her sucess she had been on the end of domestic violence in one of her relationship.

I side eye anyone who take umbrage to what she said, I’m completely fine with the existence of trans people but to ignore objective reality and push this bullshyt ? Nah. :martin:

I remember this. Everyone used to love bringing this fact up a few years ago to show how good of a person she was :pachaha:
Then she pissed off the Trehs :pachaha:
