her views are that trans ppl should be eradicated and she's expressing those views by spreading neonazi propaganda on her x account & funding every single transphobic court case in the case you jus know she's making political donations to senior cabinet ministers like @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social too
harry potter is ruined. she knows she had to hide her views to make her millions. it's like she lied to us. we know this.
It's not like she lied. She explicitly did. She claimed those first tentative likes on gender critical tweets were accidental, they were no such thing, it was only a few short months later she came out fully GC, again lying in her manifesto that she would march with us if our rights were in danger.
she hid who she was. didn't reveal until she built her empire. guess who else did that? elon musk.
Yes, she said some stupid thing about how it was her middle-aged finger, and actually she was listening to Madeleine Burns already. I think that first repost was testing the water.
it's deceptive. i wouldn't do that with my identity. if i can't get famous being transgender mtf, lesbian, polyamorous, fuck it.
The whole article is written as if no-one can understand the enmity here 😮💨
im maybe being too generous but im guessing the independent doesn't wanna get sued. one of the biggest problems with rowling is it's almost impossible for the media to accurately call her out unless they're directly quoting someone else( such as stephen fry a couple months ago ).
That's my thinking too. She can SLAAPsuit anyone and anything in to oblivion.
yeah, UK libel laws being what they are, it is very difficult for any publication to make any kind of solid claim without risking a lawsuit. Unlike the US the burden is on the writer to prove what they said is true...
which, y'know, is especially difficult to prove when your claim is someone is a transphobe in a legal system that doesn't acknowledge that transness is real
