I don’t think his tweet will age well. Anyway I’m sure anyone upset by her remarks can just tut and move away right?

so some activists are holding back on what they think of JKR - wow! If what we've seen recently is them holding back....

Do we know what the impecunious (haven't come cross that word since I was reading Dickens) publisher is alleged to have done?

OwenJonesCleaner · 21/09/2020 09:12

hasn't he got foxes to beat to death? how does he fit it all in?

Dances · 21/09/2020 09:16

That's a direct goad. He is trying to bait her.

He's run out of foxes to torture

NiceGerbil · 21/09/2020 09:20

Was he sitting at his pc in his wife's kimono wearing a fox fur stole when he typed that I wonder.

Re-arrange these words into a well known phrase or saying

idiot f%king*

AbsintheFriends · 21/09/2020 09:25

Privileged, entitled white man (with a previous history of violence) wants a woman to shut up about her own experiences and the rights of all women to sex-based protection. He dresses this up as being disappointed, because he used to 'admire' this woman when she was pleasant, compliant and unproblematic. He is sad that she is no longer pleasing to him.

This is what a misogynist looks like.

redlockscelt · 21/09/2020 09:26

The return of the kimono clad fool again.

RoyalCorgi · 21/09/2020 09:36

He's extraordinarily dishonest for a man who makes his living from rich people who are able to afford to go to law. Is JKR really supposed to sit back and do nothing when a publisher of content aimed at children publishes something libellous about her?

I'm starting to think there are few people I despise more than Maugham, even though there is so much competition.

Ooooh... I bet JK is heartbroken over that one!

I’ve missed it - who is she suing?

ArabellaScott · 21/09/2020 09:47

So what he's saying is that it's not fair that if you libel someone they sue you?

Man who dressed up in a woman’s coat to commit an act of violence gets annoyed when a female writer writes about a man who dressed up in a woman’s coat to commit an act of violence.

littlbrowndog · 21/09/2020 09:55

It’s weird how he does this.

What does he hope to achieve ?

Is he saying he thinks jo is a transphobic ?

Kit19 · 21/09/2020 09:56

Yes that’s exactly what he’s saying littlebrowndog

Wow

littlbrowndog · 21/09/2020 09:59

But she was talking about women

How does talking about women and girls make you a transphobe

Yes, this seems to be the crux of the matter 🤔

littl I think being female in possession of an opinion is 'transphobic' these days.

WeeBisom · 21/09/2020 10:13

It’s weird how he seems to think that women can’t be misogynistic, or have misogynistic attitudes. Women can often be great defenders of patriarchy.

WeeBisom · 21/09/2020 10:18

It’s also funny that as a tax lawyer he probably helps his clients save as much money as possible by finding clever loopholes- and he has no problem with that. But the second an uppity woman exercises her rights not to be defamed ? Monstrous.

nauticant · 21/09/2020 10:21

At some point he's going to have a mass delete and fall back on the lawyerly "if you have no evidence, you have no case":

He should have a look at the kind of support he's getting for these kinds of comments and then have a think about why that might be.

Kit19 · 21/09/2020 10:33

Didn’t he post something sighing dramatically about how much he’d love to have a proper discussion about it all with a GC feminist & how he’d reached out but alas none of them were willing - and then when several women including Kathleen stock offered, he decided that he didn’t in fact wa t to do it so much after all 😆😆

Nasty, fox killing misogynist.
