Just that, really.

Emma Watson hasn't been very active on Twitter recently... maybe she's avoiding the toxicity.

It's everything wrong with the world that people would wish someone dead just for having a fucking opinion that differs to theirs. Yet somehow they're the ones being "kind" and "tolerant" and anyone who disagrees, or is friends with someone who disagrees, is a bigot. They are utterly deluded and have hate-filled hearts. Hoping for a backlash against this bullshit, especially with mermaids being in the news recently.

Vile behaviour but sadly expected from them. I've not once seen a nice comment from a TRA its always threats and insults and disgusting behaviour. RIP Robbie.

Emma Watson has paid a lovely tribute to him and she is in the last public photo of him too.

Yes, but not on twitter, right? Wonder why.

Exactly @ReunitedThorns youd think they’d be desperate to distance themselves from this horribleness

ReunitedThorns · 16/10/2022 17:50

Remember silence equals violence and if TRAs wish to remain silent on these awful comments, well...

it goes both ways

Can you not even hold back for one bloody minute when someone's died, Margarita?

The correct response on a thread saying how dreadful it is that people are saying that a lovely much loved person has died IS NOT other people do it…😒

Sorry, I don't see how it's difficult to say, "I'm disgusted by these comments."

Unless and until they do that, I'm afraid I'm lumping all TRAs in together.

Me too. The TRA are quick enough to say we are all in bed with the far right because of some people who agree on this one issue, so therefore I will say any transperson echo does not call this out is the same as these individuals.

SudocremOnEverything · 16/10/2022 17:40

Twitter is most definitely not good at dealing with any of the toxicity is encourages and incubates. Twitter is useless. Utterly useless.

Great, can you just link me to any of the TRAs who are condemning this vile behaviour then? Thanks.

Show quote history

That’s the problem with twitter though. There will be moderate TRA types who have stopped following the vitriolic ones. Or are staying silent because they don’t want to be subject to their ire.

It will be a minority. But the social media situation is so terrible that people don’t challenge them.

Terftrain · 16/10/2022 17:36

Wouldn’t expect anything else from these insignificant low life scumbags.

lol at Twitter “being good at dealing with abusers and suspending their accounts”. Would that be the kind of abusers who wish you to die in a “grease fire” by any chance? #BeKind

RIP Robbie the world is a poorer place without you, what an immense talent.

TwoWrightFeet · 16/10/2022 17:32

Sounds like they are no longer ‘being kind’.

Saucery · 16/10/2022 17:21

What disgusting little creatures they are.

FlibbertyGiblets · 16/10/2022 17:19

Please don't let the de-railer derail, wims.

I am quite shocked, yet not shocked, that some people celebrate the death of Ronnie Coltrane.

RIP Robbie Coltrane.

However it goes both ways, I've seen a lot of hateful and threatening comments on Twitter made towards people who call out JK Rowling. Fortunately Twitter seems to be good at dealing with abusers and suspending their accounts.

How unfortunate for you that Twitter seems to have deleted all those nasty tweets against TRAs, so you cannot back up your assertions with any evidence. Odd, though, that Twitter doesn't delete the nastiness directed by TRAs against anyone who doesn't toe their line.

ArabellaScott · 16/10/2022 17:14

It was enormously upsetting to see people do this after his death. I cannot begin to imagine how it was for his family and friends.

Shakenotslurred · 16/10/2022 17:10

I just think of @MargaritaPie as some poor sad lonely person who’s interaction on these boards is the closest they get to human contact. I see responding as an act of Christian charity which may be the bright spot in an otherwise dull day for the poor soul

bollocks

evidence that JKR supporters have posted to say they are glad someone who called JKR out is dead. Or. It. Didnt. Happen.

It’s just @MargaritaPie trying to derail again. Pay them no mind lol.
