Oh Ms Rowling you are baad

But what about

But what about

But what about

🥱

I received a death threat just last week from a racist who thought I was Indian (I'm not) because I spoke up against the racism currently happening on Twitter.

Where's my BBC article? Or do you need to be a billionaire to get one?

"Can't be arsed."

Is this the gender critical reply when evidence is provided they don't want to hear?

Absolutely horrible abuse. Nasty, impoverished, cheap, violent and hateful language used again and again and again against JKR. As if making a tsunami of poison would wash away the truth, cleanse the hated Other of her loathsome integrity. But poison doesn't wash anything away. It poisons everything it touches, and is contagious, so that the people who don't think, simply react, will also join in with the lynch-mob. It is spiteful and murderous and terrible.

JK Rowling is brave and true and honest. I so admire her.

Is it https://terfisaslur.com/j-k-rowling/ ?

We'd be here all night and all day tomorrow listing and linking all the death, rape and violence threats sent to JKR and women who refused to call TW women on Twitter pre Elon add in the receipts of all the reports and the fact none of the perpetrators were banned and you could add in another day at least.

Twitter HQ UK personnel were called to a Parliamentary Select Committee about it it was that bad.

I would not take a crayon drawing of a guillotine carried around on a piece of cardboard credible regardless who it was supposedly "targeted" at

Pretending not to take the sign "decapitate Terfs" seriously even if it said "decapitate Transpeople", but thinking the comedian Graham Linehan seriously would have "durr...killed them". They can't be sending their best, surely?

Stop it Chris, you're killing me! To be clear, not really. It's boring now.

Re: no death threats agains the "harry potter woman", there is a site chock full of receipts, but for some reason I can't find it. Instead I'll link to this, which injects welcome humour into a grim situation:

Dorset apple cake. Although I'm open to apple cakes that identify as coming from other counties.

I know. I know. But sometimes the mad bastardry is just too much to ignore.

If we're doing cakes as Patronuses, I bagsy an opera cake.

Personally, I'm reassured by the arguments that we can dismiss a majority of dehumanising political propaganda as "not to be taken seriously". See the site I link above, for example - or, indeed, much of this delightful genre throughout history. If you do find you struggle as you scroll through any, then Christinapple's words, echoed below, should offer considerable reassurance.

You'll notice that many, thankfully, are quite badly drawn.

Others such as the uniformed vulture I link directly to, would have raised considerable logistics and practicality. After all, how would one get it to wear the cap? and what if it didn't want to pounce on a skull?

In summary, the people of the time really shouldn't have taken any of them credible - regardless of whether they were supposedly being "targetted" at.

(Alternatively, we could unite in condemning all instances of dehumanising propaganda - whether or not they happen to align with our personal perspectives and/or prejudices - as reflecting some of the very worst instincts of humanity).

'The Harry Potter woman'? That's a new one - normally TRA's are desperately trying to divorce JKR from her work.

And no theats against JKR ....really?

Yes they are the "durr" one.

It's just more, increasingly desperate, whataboutery.

Look, a squirrel!

Can't be arsed.

Mumsnet formatting problem, not mine.

Copy and paste them into the address bar they should work.

Yes, it was supposed to be the "durr" one, I'm pretty sure. Which was satirical.

has anyone collected their £1,000,000 for identifying the transphobic writings by the cormoran strike woman?

(Why aren't we using her name, has she gone Voldemort?)

Links don't work.

Was it the 'durr!' one?

The topic was quickly changed when I gave evidence of a man with gender critical views threatening violence towards women and trans women.

Funny.

> women start thread discussion on an issue of importance to women
> random person butts in to lecture women on how they shouldn't dare to talk about an issue of importance to them because the poor menz and their feelings are always way more important
> random person gets their arse handed to them on a plate by witty, well-informed, well-researched women
> so that means it must be a day ending in y

Agree @CocoapuffPuff

Why is anyone still wasting energy and time on that fruity person?

They're clearly just here to suck life and energy from those who respond. It's like having our own little board Dementor.

My Patronus is a carrot cake. Begone, foul demon.
