JKR takes on the victim blamers over the pornography tweeted at children

I'm glad she's said this. It's despicable that TRA's subjected children to this in the first instance but even more so that they double down to blame the woman they targeted.

Her team take the time to respond to emails and she mentions that she supported by receiving them. So, I am off to send another email.

I ❤️ JK Rowling.

I wish I could publicly show my support for her but I don't want to be a target of violence and hate.
The fact that she's standing up for women, children, lesbian and gay people despite the risks, the bile sent her way, and many of these are scary, violent people, makes me admire her even more. She's a courageous woman.
And a literary genius.
In absolute awe of her. 💜💚🤍

The tactics of some of these activists are vile. There is one on her timeline now stating that the tweeter of that meme is just using her words and that she did not say in that particular tweet that she had reported the harassment, so he says that the person’s meme is quite correct in drawing that assumption.

And when Joanne replied then switched to ‘well, you use your millions to stifle free speech’ (my paraphrasing) .

It is clear that they are unable to admit they are wrong. Ever.

Urgh. So the answer to porn distribution to children is to re tweet and re distribute and bump said porn?

Wtf

They really don't see lives beyond public attention do they.

Deliberately taking things out of context and deliberately misrepresenting them is a well used TRA tactic.

Context for the JKR quote this individual is using:

@TalkingOutYerArse

They have nothing as usual. Deflecting and lying as per. Well done to JKR for calling it out.
Reminds me of the recent Marion Millar thing on twitter where someone took tweets by her that had nothing to do with the sex & gender debate and tried to present them as being about trans people.

Imagine if they put that much effort into coming up with an argument for their position?

God I love JKR more every day!

Well there's DARVO in action. Good on JKR for continuing to call out this absolute bullshit but it must get so damn tiring.
