  Nobody that starts to reply with WTF and LOL ever makes it worthwhile point.

    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.

        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?

        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.

        JK Rowling backs protest over Scottish gender bill

        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.
