Back when she was something, Rowling's attention to human rights inspired me to do better, and even to try and start a career working with human rights NGOs.
It's insane to me how she's come right around and is now attacking what she once stood for, and using the might of her wealth to do it (something she also used to despise).
She's using all of that Harry Potter money to create a brave new world. She's not so different from the rest of the stinking, filthy rich. She was once poor and she should be championing the poor, not stepping on fellow humans.
Fuck amnisty international
But mostly fuck JR Rowling, the anti-rights crusader.
What a fucking waste.
Never wanted to look into it, now I had to scroll her Twitter to see that response of her is genuine, now I am mentally unstable.
Disclaimer: it might be the Twitter experience all in all, I usually do not set foot in that realm.
Thanks JK Rowling.
OF COURSE all the press support she gets is from the Telegraph, aka the Daily Telegraph, paper owned by Axel Springer Konzern, which gives its best award to Peter fucking Thiel.
shes essentially like a right wing christian group/think tank providing legal expertise for free for anyone wanting to challenge pro-lgbtq+, or anything evangelicals dont like legislation in the states. SEE KIM DAVIS, shes being bankrolled by so many groups.
Praying St Luigi.
@Quokka Holy fuck I hadn't heard this.
I can't believe Amnesty folded. A new stage of the apocalypse unlocked.
once they retracted it legitimizes her claims, and sets up precedence for future, when they go on the offense again.
What i dont get is how can she be as rich as she is, with as much inherent admiration, adoration and respect that comes with how she got that rich, and this is how she chooses to spend life?
Fucks sake you could live in Disneyland microdosing LSD while everyone who sees you is absolutely thrilled just to be near you.
With such options she selected hatred.
Why bother?
she likely was scorned by a trans person in her life.
We can't know for sure, and I won't definitively say it or use male pronouns for her. But a lot of her past comments hint that she may actually be a repping trans guy. Hell, some of the broader themes of Harry Potter are trans-coded. It would explain a lot. This seems very personal to her.
And at this point, if she really is a repping trans guy, could she even come out and transition? If she did, it would be a very lonely experience. It's not like she would be welcome in the trans community. You can't do that much harm to a group, even while secretly a member of that group, and expect to be accepted by them. And she would in turn lose all her connections among the TERF crowd.
It's not the first time I've heard that idea. I recall a comment once in which it was claimed that JKR said that if she were a teenager in the present time, she would probably have transitioned. Unfortunately I could not find any source for that claim, but given just how insane she's been on the matter, I wouldn't be surprised if there was something going on there. Same for Linehan, honestly.
Personally I would forgive her, IF that turned out to be true, AND she made a public apology for everything awful she ever said, AND threw her financial weight behind actually fighting for trans rights, AND opened a school or something specifically for disadvantaged trans kids, and kept doing such things to the point that it actually made a positive impact, then I would say she had redeemed herself.
But I'm not holding my breath for even one picosecond, thinking that it would actually happen.
What I remember is an interview where she said "I should have been born a boy" or something to that extent.
It is all too easy to see how you can fall into the TERF mindset as a transmasc in denial because it probably makes about as little sense to her why anyone would want to be a woman as it makes to me why anyone would want to be a man, therefore anyone who wants to transition to a woman must have ulterior motives. But it really shouldn't be a high ask to have a modicum of empathy to realize other people just feel different lol
I rarely wish bad things happening to people, but JK Rowling became one of them.
I had no idea this had happened. And reading about it now I'm mostly just feeling disgust and disappointment.
Rowling herself has always disgusted me since showing her true colours. Fuck, I actually bought her books, back in the days when the Harry potter series was still unfinished. I feel strangely ashamed of spending that money, even though we didn't then know the nastiness she was hiding. Feels kinda like I gave cash to a homeless person who used it to buy a knife that stabbed someone. My money supported her hate, it's an ugly feeling.
Disappointment with amnesty. Why couldn't they stand firm? She's a fuckin bigot and should absolutely be called out for it. In fact, she's not just a casual bigot, like one of those people you work with who sometimes comes out with an uncomfortable comment, but when you challenge them they're maybe kind of willing to say they don't really mean it, whatever. Rowling is a committed, evangelical bigot. She has a platform and a shit load of money and she uses it to spread hate.
If humanity manages to become properly civilised one day, her name will be remembered as one of the people who held us back.
She's exactly the type of person Amnesty should stand firm against. And instead they bend over. Probably on the advice of their lawyers, whatever, it's not good enough. If they ended up in court over this, how many of us would have donated towards their legal costs? Me, for one, and hopefully a whole lot of us.
I'm not gay, I'm not trans, so I've never had to deal with that discrimination, the aggression, the angry incomprehension. Never had to feel alone and hated by the world. Fuck sake, these people have enough shit to deal with already - to want to add to that, to encourage the mob to do the same, that's a special level of nasty. I don't want to use the word lightly, but I think it's not unusual to say evil.
And Amnesty, who should be standing firm for people who need someone to lean on, they buckle. They back away and they fuckin apologise.
So yeah, disgust and disappointment.
Sorry, that turned into a rant.
TL;DR : disgust and disappointment!
Don't be hard on yourself for buying the books a long time ago. Not only was her public persona very different, but you were also much younger
she came out anti-trans around the same time musk did. hers was more surprising since she writes HP books, you generally dont think someone is that bat shit crazy, supporting feminist/women rights was positive.
Wow, the PDF was scrubbed thoroughly from the net. archive.is doesn't have it (just a screenshot of the first page), archive.org has removed it ...
Has anyone managed to find the original PDF elsewhere?
the document was named
"Report_-_A_growing_threat__the_anti-rights_movement_in_the_UK_July_2026.pdf"
EDIT: Found a copy elsewhere. https://wingsoverscotland.com/Report_-_A_growing_threat__the_anti-rights_movement_in_the_UK_July_2026.pdf
I haven't read it yet and thus have no opinions on it. But I object to Orwellian memory-holing, so f*ck censorship.
Thanks for the PDF, looks like it's my RPi seedbox's time to shine!
Adding now
More info:
Around the same time, Sex Matters, one of the organisations identified in the report, announced publicly that it had challenged Amnesty’s publication and suggested that, had the report remained online, it would have brought defamation proceedings. Amnesty has not said whether its review is connected to that correspondence.
A tangible example of where the money people spend on harry potter goes.
people are still defending her, because they cant let go off the HP franchise.
Which is weird because there are much better books to read. There are even books that don't start to completely fall apart when you think about them for more than five minutes. There's yet more books where they've done a basic amount of research of how names work in different cultures so that they don't make mistakes like "Victor Krum, the Bulgarian".
Its why I am absoutely disgusted by anyone who spends money on it.
Fuck Rowling. You matter 🏳️⚧️
What a bunch of cowards.
They talk about human rights and post evidently empty shit like “We exist so that a world where everyone can live freely, fairly and with dignity is possible”, but fold like a wet napkin when Rowling threatens legal action.
Good to know that we can’t rely on AMNESTY to protect basic human rights anymore.
Fucking hell, we are absolutely fucked, aren’t we?
Holy shit. That’s dark.
Let them know (politely) how cowardly they are, why you won't support them, and why you'll tell everyone you know not to support them: https://www.amnesty.org/en/about-us/contact/
