I would normally agree with that, but in this case it’s really the only appropriate response. Did you even see the absolute idiocy khaleer was responding to? I mean, WTF, LOL.
Idiots will think that non idiotic things are idiotic I would add.
Such as that you guys are attacking people that will go on the defensive, that are not part of the actual problem, and ignore the people that are the actual problem.
In doing so you give the whole movement of bad name. That is the real WTF here, and it is ammunition for the far right.
Who gives a fuck if JK Rowling has a less than enlightened view on trans people? Like other than a passing fuck you on that JK rowling, is that what’s really important here?
Years now you guys have been just piling on, single-mindedly. Meanwhile you got this Kirk dick face on full-throated attacks on trans people, where are you on that huh? He doesn’t go on the defensive so you don’t attack him.

If money and fame didn’t equate political influence, then yeah, no-one would give a fuck about her personal opinions.
As it is though, she’s a billionaire who has helped fund and push through anti-trans (bathroom) legislation in the UK.
I read her posts about the issue and didn’t find them in and of themselves that problematic if that was just some person’s view. But, again, she’s an influential billionaire who wants to push through laws which actively endanger trans people.
I still like Harry Potter though, but I’m not gonna fund it in any way. And haven’t, for like 20 years.
I do not know all the ins and outs, I do know she also opposed Scotland going for Independence which I think was a big mistake for them not to do. She obviously does not have the best opinions or analysis. Still though I think the reaction to her has been outsized to the amount of influence she would have had if not for being constantly attacked.
These hedge fund douchebags quietly fund this stuff and cause way more damage than she does without mention for instance.
There are no shortage of villains, and she is rather small potatoes. Also though it throws people into the arms of the far right over attacking a popular persona. She would not be meeting with Far Right figures or sponsoring legislation if not for an outsized vicious attack against her shitty opinions.
One of my points was that she would not be so hard on the issue if she wasn’t attacked so hard on the issue, outside the text for what she said. She originally said she didn’t think trans women were women. While a shitty thing to say it is hardly deserving of the tidal wave of vitriol she received, obviously that’s going to throw any person into the arms of those that would agree with them. I do not know all the ins and outs I do not follow entertainment news but she was over attacked while those actually pushing the anti-trans stuff went by unattacked. Throwing her into the arms of those that actually pushed the stuff to defend her.
Lol bro wtf
Nobody that starts to reply with WTF and LOL ever makes it worthwhile point.
k lol

“It’s their fault that I hate them and actively fund legislation to make their existence harder and more dangerous. THEIR fault!”
Oh cmon you’re not even trying, Hector.

“No, REALLY, it’s their own fault!”
Except worse because unlike the person in the comic, JKR actually has a lot of capital and influence.
Fuck and deride them all, don’t be a slouch, don’t turn a blind eye.
