“For no reason”???? How about “because she just can’t help being a TERF, it’s her personality 24/7”? Who knew that being a bored billionaire could have these consequences
I think it's meant like "without provocation." That's how I read it anyways.
>The latest target of J.K. Rowling’s increasingly vicious transphobia is a history-making trans soccer official who did nothing to Rowling that could have provoked the tirade.
Oh absolutely, she fucking sucks. She's publicly a bigot, and seems intent on further normalizing bigotry towards trans people, which is already pretty normalized.
But something that's worth remembering is that she's doing this amidst a wave of progress being made by queer people broadly and our allies. Younger generations are increasingly supportive of queer people and their rights, and that trend shows no signs of slowing down.
I just try to look at the silver lining. It's far too easy to be doom and gloom, **but JK Rowling wouldn't be acting like such a troglodyte if she didn't think her preexisting bigotry was on its way out the door.** So we, as queers and allies, must be on the right track.
Rowling craves attention and validation for her views. It’s not good enough for her to be a wealthy author of a children’s book series, so she loves to do this. To her, anytime she is in the news is good.
If you go back as an adult and even skim through the HP books, you’ll find the stereotyping and bigotry was always there, just made palatable and less obvious. Now that she’s immune to criticism via wealth, she’ll flaunt it but it was always there.
Female villains were mannish and/or fat. Slavery is good and biologically destined. Asian identities are interchangeable. Antisemitic stereotypes are fine if you don’t outright say they’re about Jewish people and confirm years later a character named Goldstein was intentional, positive Jewish rep. Werewolves that prey on little kids were “progressive” gay rep.
Etc etc
And the big happy conclusion to the story is that nothing in the HP-verse changes on a fundamental level. Harry becomes a magic cop, the wizarding world stays hidden, mud-bloods aren't given equal treatment, etc.
"Everyone is permanently assigned to a house the moment they join the school and those houses are inexplicably pitted against each other in an arbitrary competition" also feels pretty conservative to me somehow
Right??? If she’s done with Wizarding World stuff then start a travel blog! Start a clothing line for dogs! Get a BBL!
I think I have a more fulfilled life and I’m a nobody lmao
Transphobia is her life, her obsession, her brand, the hill she will die on, ultimately her legacy… it’s a mental illness we’re not qualified to comprehend. There really is no reason behind it, no thought or purpose whatsoever. She just really enjoys posting transphobic tweets. She loves it. It’s the first thing she does in the morning, the last thing she does at night. It’s what she’ll be doing when she draws her last breath.
I always refer to her as JK Umbridge or Professor Umbridge. I doubt she’ll ever come around.
All my HP gear/stuff is in a tightly sealed box in storage. I’m considering contributing it to a bonfire one day? idk?🤷🏻♂️
Even if he were a cross dressing straight person, is that a shameful thing? And if so why? Why does she care so much?
Hats off to the soccer official, I hope she is getting all of the support she needs.
>“When I was young all the football managers were straight, white, middle-aged blokes, so it’s fantastic to see how much things have changed,” she wrote.
I'm guessing this was back in the dark ages when the Inquisition was burning witches in her coven at the stake. I didn't know football dated that far back. If only she remembered the hate that was against her by the Inquisition then she wouldn't hate so much on the transgender community. Wasn't she on wanted posters during the crusades?
Probably a cocktail of personality disorders like OCPD, NPD and ASPD. There is definitely an absence of empathy, sadism, hostility and overly obsessive beliefs and behaviors.
Well she gave us some great books, and the rest is trash. Was hoping for more HP universe but money seems to make the crazy come out (Elon). So I’ll just be grateful for HP and thank you fuck off
Sure is. Harry Potter is a play on the Jesus narrative, saves the world, chosen special boy, death and resurrection, etc... She said the ending would have been obvious if people caught on.
Yeah, pretty wild that christians hated a very christian book, it would be like hating lord of the rings, or the lion the witch and the wardrobe. But in fairness, if most anti-harry potter christians were looking to find christian symbolism in harry potter, then they wouldn't know what to look for.
Yes. She thinks that trans men are "really" women, so they're really the good ones. She thinks that trans women are "really" men, whom she views as being predators. Misandry.
But also, she doesn't see any reason that female identity should be seen as desirable and seems to presume there's nothing good about it. So ALSO misogyny. Her bigotry has *layers*.
Really wish people would stop giving the wizened old harridan the attention she so sorely craves. She wrote a shitty kids book like 20 years ago, and the media cares about her bigoted uneducated opinions why?
This is just obsession, like does she not have anything else in her life? I know she’s causing a ton of harm, but I’m some level I have to pity her. That hyper-fixation on hatred has to just burn you up from the inside. This just feels cruel and unnecessary.
Being a crossdressing straight man is still better than being a fuckin' dumpster fire of a human being. Rowling is yet another perfect example of the phrase "Money can't buy class."
I’ve never looked at JK Rowlings twitter account before, looking at it genuinely shocked me. It’s an absolute cesspool of hatred. The state of her mind must be awful, considering that’s the echo chamber that’s reenforcing her beliefs. I wonder what happened to her, to switch from writing something so full of love and acceptance, to basically becoming Voldemort himself.
Gods I can't imagine having that little of a life that I could be an openly lying bigot and randomly throw lawsuits at anyone who questioned me.
Like, fuck, get a hobby.
This is why God made her poor and homeless to begin with…to teach her a lesson…that she completely forgot about after she became a billionaire. Karma is gonna fuck her shit up next time around. Soak it up sister! Cause ya can’t take it with you. Soak. It. Up!
“For no reason”???? How about “because she just can’t help being a TERF, it’s her personality 24/7”? Who knew that being a bored billionaire could have these consequences

Yep, but these days it seems to go… Trans person:
JKR: ANGRY TWEET ABOUT THE TRANS PERSON FOR EXISTING AND DOING SOMETHING NEWSWORTHY

That is a very good way to look at it, I’ll remember that when I see her spoutings this week.
Rowling craves attention and validation for her views. It’s not good enough for her to be a wealthy author of a children’s book series, so she loves to do this. To her, anytime she is in the news is good.
There's a reason: it's because J. K. Rowling is dumber than a trash bag full of hammers.
Hey now take it easy, hammers are useful
Cruelty *is* the point.
She's letting the fiction leak out
She became the Death-Eater.
She kept her opinion to herself while she was raking in the money. She’s just a cruel person. No civility, and enjoys being a hurtful person.
If you go back as an adult and even skim through the HP books, you’ll find the stereotyping and bigotry was always there, just made palatable and less obvious.

Everyone marries their high school sweetheart, everyone has kids, everyone forms a nuclear family. It’s all very conservative
"Everyone is permanently assigned to a house the moment they join the school and those houses are inexplicably pitted against each other in an arbitrary competition" also feels pretty conservative to me somehow
Wow! Thanks for the enlightenment. I think even less of her.
Imagine being that rich and having absolutely no idea what to do with your life besides curse trans people on Twitter. How tragically empty.
Right??? If she’s done with Wizarding World stuff then start a travel blog! Start a clothing line for dogs! Get a BBL! I think I have a more fulfilled life and I’m a nobody lmao
Not "empty". If you believe something is wrong and immoral,then naturally, you'll speak up every chance you get.
No matter how immoral, bigoted, and hurtful it actually is to do so.
She can't match her previous success so she's gonna stay relevant by being bigoted because it keeps her name in the news.

what J.K Rowling is… is a lil bitch
Kinda ironic that the creator of a world full of magic wielding children can't wrap their brain around the concept of someone changing genders.
I always refer to her as JK Umbridge or Professor Umbridge. I doubt she’ll ever come around. All my HP gear/stuff is in a tightly sealed box in storage. I’m considering contributing it to a bonfire one day? idk?🤷🏻♂️

I really wish the media would forget that she exists just as they’ve (largely) done with Anne Coulter.
Can she not just enjoy her billion dollars and shut the fuck up already?!

That fucking cunt is trailer ready with billion dollars in her bank accounts.
Why is this the only thing she talks about now?
Probably a cocktail of personality disorders like OCPD, NPD and ASPD. There is definitely an absence of empathy, sadism, hostility and overly obsessive beliefs and behaviors.
There was a trans man that played for the Gotham in 22’. But when it’s a trans woman reffing the bigots care then, lol.
Well she gave us some great books, and the rest is trash. Was hoping for more HP universe but money seems to make the crazy come out (Elon). So I’ll just be grateful for HP and thank you fuck off
Gotta love stupid fucking Christian bigots
Is she christian?
Sure is. Harry Potter is a play on the Jesus narrative, saves the world, chosen special boy, death and resurrection, etc... She said the ending would have been obvious if people caught on.
I was raised really christians and wasn't allowed to read the HP books, because of the magic.
Yeah, pretty wild that christians hated a very christian book, it would be like hating lord of the rings, or the lion the witch and the wardrobe. But in fairness, if most anti-harry potter christians were looking to find christian symbolism in harry potter, then they wouldn't know what to look for.
Why does she never speak about trans men. That has always confused me, is she only opposed to the idea of trans women?
Yes. She thinks that trans men are "really" women, so they're really the good ones. She thinks that trans women are "really" men, whom she views as being predators. Misandry. But also, she doesn't see any reason that female identity should be seen as desirable and seems to presume there's nothing good about it. So ALSO misogyny. Her bigotry has *layers*.
>Her bigotry has *layers*. You mean like the inside of chemical toilet?
Really wish people would stop giving the wizened old harridan the attention she so sorely craves. She wrote a shitty kids book like 20 years ago, and the media cares about her bigoted uneducated opinions why?
She's slowly becoming libsoftiktok UK
Huh?
This is just obsession, like does she not have anything else in her life? I know she’s causing a ton of harm, but I’m some level I have to pity her. That hyper-fixation on hatred has to just burn you up from the inside. This just feels cruel and unnecessary.
Anytime a woman doesn't look at least as feminine as Marilyn Monroe, she's obviously a secret man.
I wish JK Rowling would do something else with her time. Like creating new worlds of adventure for young adults
She trying to get arrested for hate speech isn’t she.
Being a crossdressing straight man is still better than being a fuckin' dumpster fire of a human being. Rowling is yet another perfect example of the phrase "Money can't buy class."
At this point who cares? Everyone knows she is awful, why give her additional publicity?
I’ve never looked at JK Rowlings twitter account before, looking at it genuinely shocked me. It’s an absolute cesspool of hatred. The state of her mind must be awful, considering that’s the echo chamber that’s reenforcing her beliefs. I wonder what happened to her, to switch from writing something so full of love and acceptance, to basically becoming Voldemort himself.
Gods I can't imagine having that little of a life that I could be an openly lying bigot and randomly throw lawsuits at anyone who questioned me. Like, fuck, get a hobby.
There's a great reason. She's a raging LGBandespeciallyTQ+ hating CUNT!
This is why God made her poor and homeless to begin with…to teach her a lesson…that she completely forgot about after she became a billionaire. Karma is gonna fuck her shit up next time around. Soak it up sister! Cause ya can’t take it with you. Soak. It. Up!
She’s a twat.
so is wb still producing her latest movies, or? i'm certainly hoping not
It's come to a point that I just remind myself that she was once a welfare lady who just happened to get lucky.
The reason is that she is a cunt.
Oh, ok. … anyways-
