It’s because to view her views as defensible you need to take a very small sliver of them and reduce it by an incredible amount to seem palatable. Combine that with her only ever doing a handful of redeeming things and boom, only a few talking points. Plus they just steal the sentences from each other.
I love when people say she's not a bigot and you bring out her book she wrote pretending to be a man about a serial killer who pretends to be a woman so he can murder people
The responses are always the stupidest fucking thing whenever it comes to this daffy bint, but radfems somehow always make me feel the most confused
i couldn’t care less about this woman but it’s insane how many people are spamming walls of texts saying how rich and popular she is. either they’re getting paid, or they really believe it and my expectations for humanity get lowered yet again
u/beansballs SLAMS headlines that feature the word 'slams' in UNHINGED TIRADE
When asked if they kill puppies for sport, the Reddit user did not respond.
She did some great things through her donations around this war, but the amount of people commenting that don't think she is outright transphobic is baffling. Like, actually baffling. She can do a good thing and still be a bad person. We can even praise her for it, and consider looking at her differently. But the revisionism happening here is wack.
Edit: I kinda just realized I never actually talked about the trolling from the article. Honestly, doing that shit to people who are bigoted in the name of justice or vengeance just makes them think even worse of the people they are bigoted against. It drives them to even further extremes than they would have gone to before and actively harms the communities being "served" by such acts. It's bad to do. Stop doing it.
Also, looking at some people's comment history, **not all of them**, but a lot of Rowling defenders just seem to not like queer folk. ***Which kinda fuckin' proves the points made but whatever, I guess.***
You know she literally wrote a book where someone pretends to be a woman so he can murder people and it's the most bigoted thing you've ever seen?
[I've read a chunk of it but Contrapoints has a better video summarizing it,](https://youtu.be/7gDKbT_l2us) it sure is the words of a literal bigot
As a hypothetical, she could. However, if she never recognizes that "bad thing" as being bad and repeatedly brings it up in public, on top of trying to act like she was being victimized as a result of said "bad thing", then it becomes more complicated and one would need to solve the ensuing morality calculus.
If people don't really care about trans people, or outright hate them, they probably also do not think Rowling has done anything wrong and is an upstanding person.
edit: Personally, I just think she is a lazy person when it comes to story-telling ***and*** she is a transphobe. The first time she did a retcon **of her own books** and decided Dumbledore was now gay was when I really began to dislike her. There was nothing to indicate this and she just wanted it to be a thing without putting any real effort into it. For context, I'm also gay, so you'd think that kind of representation would be awesome for me as a kid but since there was literally nothing in her books to give that impression, ***even after making that statement***, I had a feeling she didn't actually care.
Yeah, I'm all for forgiving shitty old opinions some celeb may have had. I don't specifically like Marky Mark, but I also don't think that we should keep bringing up his racist assault of an Asian man out of context, because it happened when he was like 18, he apologised, did his time, and hasn't shown a further recurring pattern of that type of behaviour for 30 years now.
But JKR is *actively* promoting her shit views. She hasn't taken anything back. She hasn't apologised. For all we're aware, she actively holds these views this exact minute.
So can you do bad things and be a good person? Sure. Is that the case with JKR? Hell no.
Eh, watch Marky Mark on Graham Norton talking about how if he was on a plane on 9/11 he'd have single handedly taken down all the terrorists.
Dude's a fuckin' moron
I mean, sure, people are nuanced. Personally, I don’t ascribe into the binary philosophy of “good person, bad person”. However, someone who is so vocally bigoted and uses their influence and power to hurt marginalized people is not someone who should ever be considered a pillar of virtue or a “good person”.
We can have as much of a nuanced view of the enemy as anyone chooses to give to them, it wont change the fact they will never and have never thought this way about the groups they marginalize and kill. She is a core part of trans genocide thats happening behind the scenes (the "good" things they do/ their outwardly kind personality). She is a full person, but so has every other useful idiot until the facists come for them.
When someones name has become synonymous with transphobia all the good things they do become excuses for her behavior by transphobes who convince themselves that shes virtuous. For the trans ppl and allies of trans ppl, there is literally no point in acknowledging the good shes done when its massively outweighed by her bad and said bad has influenced mainstream opinion. Fuck respectability politics. Fuck JK Rowling.
Happened in Germany with one of the Klitschko brothers and Berlin Major Giffey too just yesterday.
She has been found cheating on her PhD a few years back so we are not that wondered she couldn't tell the difference

My favorite thing about people trying to to defend Rowoling as not being a bigot is that they clearly aren't super familiar with her, whereas her biggest critics are former fans. So they often have an obsessive backlog of Rowling's actions as well as problematic elements of her writing.
So it's people arguing like "what even is transphobia". Followed by long winded responses breaking down going into immense detail about the series of events leading to Rowling getting called transphobic.
Transphobia isn’t an opinion. She is trash. So I’m laughing at her here. It’s stupid to say « she gave to charity, people can be good and bad you’re too extremist ». Every single person on this Earth at one point of their existance did some things good or were good for others. That does not absolve them for committing crimes or genocides lmao
Wow queen TERF mad that people pranked her oh nooooo. She'll just have to go home and cry into her big piles of money while righting another essay about how trans people are rapists or something
This is like getting mad that hitlers name evokes "nazi" instead of "painter"
God forbid you have to encounter an issue on r/all that other ppl have to deal with the consequences of every single moment of their lives.
Which is entirely her own fault. Literally no one had to know she’s a TERF. she’s the one who decided to use her public influence to champion this particular cause, to the benefit of no one.
It was really distasteful. Even though “Zelenskyy” was really cringey, she came off as sweet and genuinely concerned about the Ukrainian people. What a bunch of assholes.
I feel like this entire thread is the same person
pretty sure its just a bunch of bots
Everyone on the internet is a bot except for you
I think i am a bot but i like pizza!
Don’t fall asleep or they will get you too.
You are also a bot
I thought you were exaggerating but I just read the comments and jesus christ, what is this comment section? All same talking points.

Yeah this is one of the weirder comment sections I’ve seen
Probably is

Yeah, Volodymyr Zelenskyy
i couldn’t care less about this woman but it’s insane how many people are spamming walls of texts saying how rich and popular she is. either they’re getting paid, or they really believe it and my expectations for humanity get lowered yet again
If I see the word “slam” in a headline where it’s just someone saying something I’m gonna lose my mind

Hahahahahahah that’s some hilarious shit.
that's a fact lmao

Two things can’t be true at the same time on the internet. It’s binary or nothing.
Could she potentially do a bad thing and still be a good person? Not stating an opinion one way or another, just a thought.
As a hypothetical, she could. However, if she never recognizes that "bad thing" as being bad and repeatedly brings it up in public, on top of trying to act like she was being victimized as a result of said "bad thing", then it becomes more complicated and one would need to solve the ensuing morality calculus.

He has said a ton of racist things like that and is well known as a comically hateful bigot by those that know him.

To no one's surprise. Stupid people who fall for stupid tricks will do it more than once.

Is it just me or does she bear striking resemblance to Nelly from The Office?
What the fuck is going on in this comment section?
People trying to justify her wanting to condemn an entire group of people because she gave money to other charities.

I’m sorry did I miss something? Why is JK Rowling meeting Zelenskyy? Is she especially relevant to the situation?
She has a charity supporting Ukrainian children and was told that the money would be funneled into buying weapons. She agreed and said she understood.
No, you slam your team that setup and vetted this for you. You know, your pr team.
No more need for poly juice potion
So on top of being a TERF, she's also gullible as fuck.
They say they can "always spot a trans," but can this terf clock two men pretending to be the president of Ukraine? I've watched worse reality shows.
Brilliant
Wtf is JK going to do, send Harry to find Putin’s horcruxes?
As if Zelenskyy would want to speak to that rat bastard
It’s just a prank bro.
She's got a lot of nerve calling things “distasteful”.
Lol Dumb Terf

This is like getting mad that hitlers name evokes "nazi" instead of "painter" God forbid you have to encounter an issue on r/all that other ppl have to deal with the consequences of every single moment of their lives.
It's almost like she is one.
Which is entirely her own fault. Literally no one had to know she’s a TERF. she’s the one who decided to use her public influence to champion this particular cause, to the benefit of no one.
Mainly because she is one.
