God please, give me this one. It'd be so funny.

He might have rapped children, and then traded the children to other rapists but at least he didn’t put dresses on people that had a winkle.

She has standards!

Yeah... I'm thinking of posting it individually but at the same time I don't know how to mark it as spoiler/nsfw so that people can choose not to see it.

Anyway, remember how the right said we wanted to forcibly trans children? Every. Accusation.

Not even just the content of that, but the way that guy worded it skeeved me out. Mum-pum?

Family guy did parody/ predict her quite a few episodes before she became full TERF queen.

God do I want JK to go down for being an Epstein crony, but from the evidence here this appears to be entirely the fault of Peggy Seigal: well known for being a gatekeeping socialite idiot and good clout-chasing friend of Epstein.

While JK Rowling herself is not a direct participant in this specific email chain, the event was a cornerstone of her franchise's Broadway expansion. The documents do not indicate whether the author was personally aware of the guest list additions made by the production office.

On the morning of 20 April 2018, Peggy Siegal initiated a high-priority request to Colin Callender, the acclaimed producer of the Harry Potter stage play. In her email, Siegal described Epstein as a 'very important friend' who wished to witness the 'spectacle' of the Hogwarts-themed dining room.

Her inclusion is bad on it's own, but it's not quite on the level of "JK invited Epstein to her play" like the title implies, it's "someone on the production staff invited Epstein".

[–] Maven@piefed.zip 4 points 4 hours ago

My feeling was that if someone on her senior staff was inviting people personally to a major event... it had to have been approved by her right?

Like theres no way she would allow the guest list to be entirely in the hands of someone else right??

Maybe I just have too much confidence in these people to manage thier own shit.

JK Rowling called Lolita a "Tragic Love Story" and that should've been enough in any sane world.

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

yeah, really feels like people aren't reading the article ...

[–] Tinidril@midwest.social 12 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I honestly don't care anymore. If there is the slightest hint of a connection between right wing freaks and Epstein, I'm just going to assume they fuck kids. I see no reason to give them the benefit of any doubt.

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Rowling didn't even invite Epstein and wasn't even in the email chain, we have no evidence they've corresponded, let alone that she visited his island or fucks kids - I get not having good feelings towards a villain like Rowling, but I think you're engaging in poor reasoning

[–] Tinidril@midwest.social 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I am making an affirmative decision to engage in poor reasoning in a specific circumstance. It seems to work well enough strategically for the right, including Rowling, so I figure I'll try it out.

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 hour ago

When we abhor the immoral actions of an evil person, we do not usually think their immoral actions give us moral license to engage in immoral behavior.

This is childish and indefensible, and I think you know that - so what's the point here? You're wasting my time, I'm not interested in talking to you further.

[–] Transform2942@lemmy.ml 59 points 1 day ago (2 children)

How did I not see this one coming. Being cartoonishly evil while transparently sucking up to power is her main move

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

her books have always have been implicating what she believes. it was discussed alot on some sub about her books.goblins=jewish people was the favorite theory, and i assume muggles is some form of racist thing she describe someone as.

[–] cyan_mess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 1 day ago

Every accusation is a projection coming from these types.

Just when I thought she couldn't be any worse.

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 1 points 13 hours ago

Can we start agitprop memes of «Harry Pedos»? Snape really wanted that Harry [censored].

Maaaan, it sure seems like.... someone rolled a 20 when casting cuntus maximus.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

We already know she is a freak of some kind. The freaks can't stand trans.

[–] jcorvera@quokk.au 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Mind you, this play was her shitty fanfiction of her own damned series...

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 1 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (1 children)

If it's the original shitty author isn't it just a shitty sequel?

[–] jcorvera@quokk.au 2 points 16 hours ago

It's fanfiction, made to explain to her fans why her decisions are final, to wit - Cedric Diggory should stay dead.

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

It’s always the people I most suspect.
