Watching yall say "trans rights" in ya bio but still talk about buying Hogwarts Legacy

Not letting this get buried as well as this

She ain't even subtle anymore lmao

had these images attached

she's outright saying she believes queer people are murderers when all we want is to be treated equal. from the murders of queer people, we know murder does not create equality

What happens when someone who is deeply antisemetic and racist writes Wizard Hitler and "slavery is Good Actually" plotlines. It's always been unhinged, folks. It's just harder to hide now than it was back then.

I've rarely seen a more validating sentence in my entire life.

The funniest thing about people like this is when they act "disturbed" by the hate theyre getting while simultaneously ignoring how much THEY disturb their surroundings

Lost followers after reblogging that whole thing about JKR being radicalized over the years, and that disturbs me.

Like if you think saying that people can be radicalized and manipulated into hate is somehow justifying it, yikes. And if you think that people are somehow just good or evil and that you are not at risk of buying into propaganda, have I got some very red flag news about that!

Idk if its because I am an older Millennial maybe (most who unfollowed were younger) but I watched a ton of that generation slide from one of the most progressive to the far right before my every eyes. Hell, my dad fought alongside his black friends in the Detroit race riots and now he watches Fox News 24/7 and talks about the border wall. Yet still claims he could never be racist because of how he used to be. He doesn’t even realize what he has become.

JKR isn’t a deluded old woman or innately evil, but in fact THE prime example of how well-meaning ignorance and privilege can be weaponized and encouraged down a pipeline, until it turns into a force of hate, and should be a cautionary tale about why educating and being open about these issues are necessary. Because there are those out there who will use those divisions and ignorance to their own ends. And just digging in our heels and saying “that could never be me!” is the very thing that puts you more at risk. I’ve lost so many loved ones down that pipeline and it is more slippery than most realize.

Stay alert, stay compassionate, stay humble, and make sure you move through life guided by reason rather than reaction. I love y’all and don’t want to see your passion twisted to get used against the world.

it's really disappointing how people's critique of jkr starts and ends with her transphobia, and they completely ignore her blatant antisemitism, racism, homophobia, slavery apologism, sympathy for the wizard nazis, (the wizard nazi incel) snape's redemption, the villain of fantastic beasts trying to stop the holocaust, and the new game literally being a rehash of the blood libel myth.

&her ableism, fatphobia, classism, and general naked imperialism (look at things like the "thunderbird" in fantastic beasts, or anything and everything she's ever said or done about Scotland, for example)

This ass-hat has actually lobbied against things like "letting disabled people survive" and "the colonised nation I live in taking steps toward independence."

Oh, and you already mentioned it, but - antisemitism, again. Cannot stress the antisemitism enough because, holy fuck she's so antisemitic!

WAKE UP BABE EASTERN EUROPEAN CHO CHANG JUST DROPPED

@kos-chei im REELING!!!

"first white person to ever sucessfully br racist against other white people" the oppression and violence against polish and other eastern european people in england and Britian extends before and after J.K. Rowling writing this piece of shit.

Like I get the "joke" but you're ignoring the decades of shit polish people have faced in this country that she building off of. Its not 'white people on white people racism haha' its contributing to structural oppression and xenophobia thar exists here.

I went to Ireland (Republic of) this summer and virtually every low-wage service worker from the cab drivers to hotel staff were Eastern European migrants, many of whom were refugees from Ukraine. This shit's nothing new. EU and rich non-EU European countries like Terf Island are built off of cheap Eastern/Central European migrant labor (and MENA + Asian migrant labor too ofc)

As much as I love that JK Rowling is being shredded for her transphobia, I'm begging y'all as a trans man to acknowledge that the fucking Hogwarts Legacy game is fucking antisemitism personified.

Jewish people are very often erased from this shit already, ACKNOWLEDGE that the entire game's premise is about it. Jesus fuck.

This. The reason people should be boycotting the game is because of the game’s actually vile premise, not just because JKR is a transphobic asshole. She’s also an antisemitic, racist asshole.

When the game’s premise first came to light—before JKR’s infamous anti-trans diatribe that specifically targeted transmascs and especially autistic transmascs—a lot of people rightly decried it because of its blatant antisemitism and the fact that it’s premise encouraged genocidal actions against the Jewish-stereotyped goblins.

And then, somehow, for some people, JKR’s transphobia erased the fact that we already KNEW that the game was bad because of the inherent antisemitism of its narrative.

There’s more reasons to hate JKR and not buy things she’s responsible for than just her transphobia. She’s not just a TERF; she’s a racist, antisemitic TERF.

Don’t forget that, folks.

From JK Rowling's new book: Her Villian's tumblr header

A girl living with disabilities who criticizes Rowling's self insert character of abelism is the bad guy

god she is so funny for this this is literally such a humiliating manifesto to put out into the world. i would rather die than admit i got big mad over people writing mean posts about me on TUMBLR enough to write a 5 billion page book about it

Jesus Christ

It’s more than 1000 pages long!! Does she not have an editor or does her editor hate her??? Currently has 2.5 stars on Amazon with 4 reviews.

This is so embarrassing.

I saw people talking about this in the morning. I literally spent all day assuming it was the Onion or something similar.

You're telling me this is *real*? 😬

It’s so funny how JK Rowling’s entire career rests on the inertial popularity of a series that ended 15 years ago. All her other books fucking suck and no one talks about them because they’re shit, she’s completely tanked her public reputation, and fewer and fewer people want to be professionally associated with her. She’s gonna end up dying embittered and disgraced sometime in the next 20 years, still not having written anything of note since 2007, all while better writers render her one decent story increasingly obsolete by doing its central conceit far better than she ever could

Two transphobic horrors mocking someone’s PTSD.

Worth mentioning that JK Rowling is currently using her clout to oppose Gender Recognition Act reform in Scotland because of her hatred of trans people.

Unfollow her, stop consuming the merchandise that makes her wealthier. She’s drop 25,000 followers over the course of the weekend because of her repugnant views.

Miss Jowling Kowling Rowling (1) is transphobic, (2) is islamophobic, and (3) thinks that when you eat halal meat it leaves detectable traces of halal residue in your stomach

(Walking into the kebab shop) Oi, boss, gimme one wit extra residue

THAT'S NOT HOW HALAL WORKS

your daily reminder that terfism is rooted in racism in the first place 

We’ve said it before & we’ll say it again: fuck TERFs.

I was debating whether to reblog this post with all of the additions, because @dewitty1 and @secretlycrazyhummingbird made some really good points in their replies, but... I refuse to give cis people's transphobic opinions a platform in my blog.

It's okay to not know much about what's going on with JKR. It's okay to not know much about radical feminism, transphobia, and transmisogyny.

But if you care about trans people, if you want to be an ally to the community, you need to do better than to encourage people who may also not know much to listen to a cis woman on this. Especially when trans people and their allies have talked about these topics at length and continue to do so.

And, to me, it's alarming that your first choice when you decided to direct people to someone more knowledgeable than you was a cis woman that has repeatedly sided with other TERFs on Tumblr, that calls the fight for trans rights "misogynistic and homophobic", and that goes as far as to claim that "same sex attracted people have a moral right to reject people with bodies that don't fall within their sexuality" in her pinned post.

If you care about us, you need to do better than this.

Reblogging this one because I’m fully repulsed by some of the other commentary and this is what deserves to be seen.

1) TERF isn’t a slur.

2) JKR is a TERF.

3) If you exclude trans people from your feminism, you’re not a feminist.

4) Cis people don’t get to decide what is and isn’t right for, or insulting to, the trans community.

5) JKR isn’t even a feminist or an LGBT+ ally—her books have a lot of gross ‘not like other girls’ bullshit, and there’s literally no canon LGBT+ representation. Now, they were written forever ago, but instead of saying ‘I wrote these books before I was educated on the importance of thoughtful, well-rounded minority representation, and while I can’t go back in time to change it, I can do better going forward, and I appreciate everyone who’s talked to me about this’, she chose to pretend certain characters have always been part of a specific community.

6) It’s disappointing to see a fanfic author whose work I’ve enjoyed take such a regressive, antagonistic stance, but I’m glad I know now. I hope that person talks to people who were affected by JKR’s words instead of burying her head in the sand in the name of ‘being right’.

7) Using sexual assault to justify your bigoted views is disgusting and insulting to all other survivors.

That’s about all I’ve got on this. I hope certain people wake up and grow up. Grossed out that there are still so many people with these views in 2020.
