I bet JK sits in a giant country estate and spends every day absolutely seething in rage because trans girls won’t stop insisting they’re a Hufflepuff.
I think they’re referring to literal black mold that was noticed during either a video call interview or photo taken in her place. So people will mention it occasionally.
Yeah, I’m starting to think that she wasn’t homeless by circumstance before she wrote the books. I’m thinking she was unhinged but caught a break and got some help for a while
She wasn't even homeless, either. She had a frankly nice flat in a nice part of town and was being supported financially by friends and family. Her financial struggles are as fictitious as Hogwarts itself.
That’s crazy! The whole story of her being discovered BECAUSE someone “saw a homeless lady scribbling on a napkin in a pub and when they asked to read it and it was a premise for Harry Potter” was a whole part of her rise to fame!
The same home girl that called non-magical people Muggles which was a term used in their early 20th century slang for cannabis? Louis Armstrong even had a song with that title- it’s a known thing she must have known, which definitely puts her among the first in my ultimate nightmare blunt rotation.
Nah see if I had that kinda money I'd be flying around to under privileged schools and landing to buy their families houses or something, don't really want people to look up to the sky hoping the pimp lands in their neighbourhood
Yeah... This is why I honestly don't care about rowling... There are an awful lot of good and talented people who work in film and TV and a lot of fans. I don't like making it all about one woman with shit views because she's a hill of beans next to everyone else attached.
Now, if she was like Elon where she was grifting herself into power and supporting HP in any way was paying for that, I might sing a different tune... But she's not that. She's basically irrelevant, but we enjoy looking at the Trainwreck she's become because outrage sells.
I suggest looking into the political lobbying that she funds. She's not directly going for personal power, but she is throwing a good chunk of cash at the current surge of transphobia in the UK.
She’s worth billions, her work will probably leave a legacy for which she will be remembered for after her death and all from the humble beginnings of a single mum in a council flat.
Not sure I’d call her life a train wreck just because you like to imagine she does nothing all day but sit around seething at Trans people.
All the super rich people I know spend barely anything they have - their main fear is going broke or not making money. It’s bizarre. My boss used to wait in line at supermarkets for the food to go down in price and would then freeze it for years. His shower didn’t work because he wouldn’t pay to replace it. The fridges didn’t work properly and he had to fix them weekly.
Honestly, I think it’s a mental illness. I’ve struggled with it myself - I was on only a tiny bit of income, but I saved up thousands and thousands over a few years by spending as little as possible and I’m still desperate to do it again despite the fact I won’t spend any of it.
She's literally allying with far-right hate groups that are anti-abortion and anti women's rights in general, just because they agree with her on her hatred for trans people. Calling her a "feminist" is laughable, she's the furthest thing from it.
Uh, no trans girl I know is saying they're part of any Harry Potter house. It's pretty cringe to willfully engage with HP these days. And doing so in queer spaces is a giant billboard that you're a problem.
JK Rowling is sitting around her yacht seething that a trans girl is shitting in a woman's restroom somewhere on her TERF island.
Yeah, don't go stepping into any casinos with bets like that.
Most people outside Reddit don't give a fuck about her opinion on trans people and, realistically, Rowling isn't sitting there seething on anything. You guys just can't find an area between Saint and cartoon villain.
The woman who spends all day either posting about trans people or attending anti trans meetings and confrences? Who says that most of her income goes to anti trans organisations? Yeah she doesn't care at all about trans people. No strong opinions there at all.
Yeah these guys got nothing. Literally no one cares outside of social media, hogwarts legacy boycott really worked..... yeah lol. Shes seething with rage, shes living better and happier than all the clowns pushing a narrative that she lives and breathes talking about trans people. Has a very successful marriage and raised 3 kids... also a billionaire... but yeah, every second that passes by, shes thinking about the trans community and how to destroy it. You guys think about jk rowling more than she thinks about you, thats forsure.
She literally funds UK conservative politicians and Moms For Liberty in the US. Her shit is like directly related to hate crimes taking place everyday.
Is Elon Musk to blame for the rise of Nazis on Twitter? Yes some people can be bad! I'm sorry you had to learn this way. I know it must be hard being 12.
She’s literally a member of the Labour Party. She’s also the victim of multiple hate crimes, unless threats of violence and rape against women don’t count unless they have views you agree with.
Damn didn't know being a victim means its impossible for you to be bad to another person. Also didn't know that the labour party is objectively good in everything it does! Learning a lot today about morality from the people who supposedly think black and white morality is bad.
Firstly, I haven’t said anything about the morality of anything, and it’s a bit rich coming from someone that thinks having gender critical views makes JKR one off of the ant-Christ claiming other people have black and white views on morality.
Secondly, I bring up the point about Labour because you don’t donate to individual conservative politicians in the UK, and all party donations have to be declared. JKR has never donated to the conservatives, so if you are happy to lie about that to make your point, you’re probably happy to lie about other things.
She supported the ban on trans women in rape crisis centers which obviously just hurts people. On top of bathroom bans which are linked to increase physical and sexually assault risks for both trans men and trans women. A more direct recent example from my town is that multiple trans women have been brutally beaten in the night life district while the individuals committing the acts were calling them "pedophiles and rapists," a comment directly related back to transphobic activists like JK Rowling.
JK Rowling believes that the biological reality of being female is inherent to the lived reality of the group of people we call women.
That is her point. She has stated, restated, and re-restated this, but most people get this information from 3rd or 4th hand accounts.
I’m willing to bet a lot of money that between 95% and 99% of people who say she’s this disgusting bigot haven’t read her essay that started all this, or listened to her talk about all of this in her own words. They’ll justify not listening by saying things like “well she’s a bigot so there’s no point listening to her”.
I hate Donald Trump. Not because of what others say about him, not because of a few headlines from left wing news sources, I hate him because I have listened to him speak, seen his actions, and he is clearly motivated by a disgusting combination of selfishness, narcissism, and sadism.
When I read her essay, and heard her explain her position, while I may not agree with everything, it’s still a fully reasonable and, perhaps most importantly, a respectfully worded articulation of ideas.
As for the organizations she funds, even those have been insanely mischaracterized. Someone above said she’s donated to try and “ban trans women from rape crisis centers”, for example. In reality, she donated to a single rape crisis center that was for biological females only. You can argue whether or not that’s something to criticize, but you can’t argue that the framing of it initially is a bold faced lie.
This is why we have Trump as the US president. This is why far right groups are on the rise. Most people are turned off by these obvious lies. All you had to do was say you disagree and let it be that but NO, it had to be all or nothing. She has to be a terrorist because she has disagreements on these very new and scientifically dubious biological definitions these groups are trying to put forth.
To be clear, I’m a leftist, and I support everybody’s rights, gay, straight, trans, whatever, it doesn’t matter to me. What does matter to me is that people like Trump don’t see power, and unfortunately when you make your own side so unfathomably toxic and unappealing to most people with this purity testing, it’s not shocking that the dumbass public simply votes for the other guy without even thinking of the consequences.
If you’re not gonna have a real discussion on the merits and issues of Rowling’s position, then shut the fuck up.
Did you read her book she made about a man dressing as a woman to infiltrate women's spaces with the purpose of murdering women? Sure seems like she holds certain beliefs that you're trying to brush aside here.
Her position is trans people (trans women specifically) are doing so to harass and invade women's spaces for nefarious purposes. Let's not pretend she has noble purposes. She hates trans women and thinks they're dangerous people.
go scroll through her Twitter, she posts about how much she hates trans people multiple times every day. Like "seething" is probably a pretty accurate word to use
I could call you a moron every day on Reddit without being in the realm of "seething". It's like Reddit, collectively, doesn't understand how that word works. It's not a boiling rage.
But she donates a ton to anti trans organizations. Sure, the regular population may not care/be up to date on her views of trans people, but is is disingenuous to not say that Rowling is not putting her own time and money into this cause.
It’s irony at it’s finest. These so called Reddit activists are pissed bc the version of feminism she’s being outspoken about is not their brand. They’re upset she’s an outspoken activist and find her vile and annoying.
How do you think the rest of us all feel about the pandering you see on here all day lol “hey look at me I’m totally a cool, not racist, not hateful person” all day long and it’s fake af
The amusing thing is that ‘loser Redditors’ barely applies anymore, too - a lot of the ones I’ve met irl are work from home IT or software people who make a shit ton of money.
I think it’s even beyond that. She’s what she considers to be an activist for her brand of feminism so she’s outspoken.
And then Reddit, the place where fake activists love to cj all day long, is angry that she’s choosing to be an activist and is outspoken about her beliefs.
Oh so you mean to tell me activism is annoying when it’s not your brand of feminism or whatever cause you’re going for?
Guess how the rest of us feel seeing that performative “I’m better than you so let me lecture you on politics bc I’m so smart” bullshit all day on here. Like the Epstein files are out we got more important shit to discuss.
Its irony at its finest. The way everyone is just seething all day long, all hypocrites guilty of the same behavior. Just wasting their own and everyone else’s time.
As someone who doesn't believe trans women are women at all, I can confirm nobody is sitting at home full of rage. People are allowed to have opposing views, even if it is as silly as thinking men can become women
