(stolen joke) A transphobe, a racist and a antisemite walk into a bar. The bartender says: "hey arent you the woman who wrote those harry potter books?"

Sure thing, Rowling. Why don't you show us these supposed facts that contradict the statistics that show trans women are far more likely to be the victims of sexual assault than the perpetrators?

[-] LenonLemonLenin@hexbear.net 81 points 8 months ago

It's fascinating how Rowling projects her grievances with the patriarchy onto trans women.

[-] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 72 points 8 months ago

it's the final stage of liberal feminism. petty traumas with no systemic causes and no wider solution need to be vented at the most vulnerable populations available. also explains the Clintonite criminal justice project.

all transpeople are r#pists is certainly a take to have, i hope she drowns in her own blood

[-] Are_Euclidding_Me@hexbear.net 57 points 8 months ago

It's becoming more common. We're getting extremely close to a place where trans people are predators by definition to these people. It's really scary

[-] star_wraith@hexbear.net 38 points 8 months ago

I have noticed that they are expanding how they define predator even further to include anyone who advocates for acceptance of trans kids. It usually goes something like (cw: transphobia):

spoiler“Being trans is inherently sexual. So anyone who tells a kid they might not be the gender they were assigned at birth means they are trying to sexualize children, thus a sexual predator.”

I didn't follow how unhinged she had become about it. Wow.

What can be the next move after this? Claiming she was r*ped by a transwoman?

[-] carpoftruth@hexbear.net 66 points 8 months ago

She sucks shit but that first sentence has a lot of juice and could be repurposed

"Good for you, Bill Maher. Some imperial apologists prefer to advocate for racist colonialism from behind an anime cartoon, but you're doing it under your own name. Zionists need brave guys like you."

The final movie in the "fantastic beasts" series will have the protagonists actively trying to cause the holocaust and support Hitler because the villain in the movie is a camp trans character who opposes him. This will be demanded by Rowling herself.

[-] ClimateChangeAnxiety@hexbear.net 50 points 8 months ago

Just a reminder for anyone who didn’t know, the main villain’s goal in those movies was to prevent WW2 and the holocaust

Spoilers not that anyone should give a fuck

These movies take place shortly after the end of WW1. The second movie ends with Grindelwald, the big bad, holding an evil rally trying to convince the other wizards that they should reveal themselves and take over humanity, and he shows a vision of the future that will come if they don’t; Another war. He shows visions of tanks, of the Blitz, of Nazi victims in concentration camps, and finally a nuclear explosion, and says “we can prevent this.”

This could work if it took place in the modern day, or even if it took place after WW2 and he showed visions of nuclear Armageddon. But the villain of the movie showed visions of the second world war which we know does in fact happen and says “We should prevent this” and the audience is supposed to go “No that’s bad actually.” And yes, preventing WW2 is just a fig leaf for his actual goal of world domination, but ultimately it still means you wrote a story where the bad guy is the one going “we should stop WW2”

The scene in question. CW: Johnny Depp

[-] CrushKillDestroySwag@hexbear.net 36 points 8 months ago

Rowling has a reccurring hangup with changing the past. In the late sequel screenplay thing that stars Harry's kid, the plot is that they want to go back in time to save Cedric Diggory's life, and succeed - but somehow this makes Cedric himself become a Death Eater and causes the bad guys to win the wizard war, so they end up having to make sure Cedric dies as originally planned.

It's "we live in the best possible reality".

Rowling is such a Slytherin 👍👍👍👍👍

I mean, she literally does act like Umbridge, a character she actively hates and wrote to be hated.

Why the fuck is one of the richest, most famous people in the world taking the time to say unhinged shit to random people on Twitter with like 200 followers? Does she just sit around all day looking for obscure people to put on blast with her deranged bullshit?

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 45 points 8 months ago

Because she is unhinged and wants trans people dead. She is singularly obsessed with it.

Wasn't she all in with that lady that was quoted in that BBC article that had a fucking manifesto to kill trans people and a history of doing SA to other women?

Just saying, there are countless, countless confirmed incidents of r@pe and general sexual abuse at those gay/trans conversion "therapy" camps by the counselors (the victims of which are almost all minors who are forced by their piece of shit parents to attend as these camps' primary demographic), which is still happening to this day. Far more than the number of confirmed LGBTQ+ predators. Call it whataboutism if you want, but it seems to me like it's your crowd that has a predator problem, Rowling.

They haven't yet released the Minecraft and Fortnite crossover DLC that contains the content I want JK Rowling to play, at this point

So she just replied with "you're wrong" lol

[-] frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml 34 points 8 months ago

I'm surprised she hasn't been publicly jumped yet

[-] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 46 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

When you're as rich as her you get "the help" to do shit like shopping and stuff, so she most likely never leaves her home unless she's going to some event that has security guarding her.
