Feminism: Sex and gender discussions

Yet another defamatory fake JKR tweet which a Guardian journo helps spread. I so much hope JKR sues them. Enough is enough!

To quote Linehan

"Brightbill and Thielman are part of a movement that has nothing going for it except for this relentless ability to smear and defame others. But the thing I always find frightening is how well-connected these people are. Brightbill has a byline in Religious Times?? What’s really “effed up” is young professionals using their considerable cultural and establishment cachet to paint a target on a woman’s back."

JKRs tweet re this

KEBrightbill This fake tweet was created when I deleted an entirely different Tweet with a typo in it, then reposted. The creator claimed this what what I deleted. I am asking you to delete this defamatory claim and acknowledge the truth. 1/2

My lawyers would also very much like to know the identity of your 'real life' friend who 'screenshotted' it herself. As this Tweet never came from my account, she can't have captured it in the form it appears here. 2/2

And in response to “So sorry you have to deal with this, this is horrible” Jo said

It's endless, but I think it might be time to play a little hardball.

I really hope she does. The same person tweeted the same lie last year, didn’t get much traction so is having another go this year. I really would love to see this person get all the traction they missed out on first time round. Go JKR 🤍💜💚
