The police are involved and all three have locked their accounts.

I hope their agents will take note.

So someone tried to dox JKR here but failed? I guess that isn’t legally punishable?

But surely it goes against all civilised debate?

If misgendering is a strike, that should be at least a strike, shouldn’t it?

Theeyeballsinthesky · 22/11/2021 17:16

I believe it’s “oh look a squirrel” tactics beastly

Meanwhile even Jess Philips has condemned their behaviour

I think I know the answer beastly. JKR and Marion are both the wrong kind of women.

Biological women who don’t was people with penises to shower next to teenaged girls.

She's wisely made it an issue for the Police to resolve. The Police know that if they try to make this disappear without taking action she could have them in the High Court for failing in their duty towards the public. That will work far better than dragging into court some nobodies who would be try to play the victim card.

DomPom47 · 22/11/2021 17:25

I just can’t see how some justify this as transphobia given everything she has said about trans people deserving rights and respect etc.

I am not transphobic but feel sad that some may label me as transphobic for having the same ideas as JKR.

What a sad state of affairs that such strong labels are used.

SunshineCake1 · 22/11/2021 17:31

@Doubletoilandtrouble

I am also very confused about the “don’t be a cissy “ statement which these three activists made so publicly.

It does sound like CIS which we have been assured not is an insult.

The porn aspect, are we not allowed to talk about that? I thought sissy porn was the kind of pornographic photos transwomen posted of themselves on JK Rowlings ickablog feed which was aimed at children ? Pictures of transwomen showing their penises?

When I was a child calling someone a cissy was definitely an insult and it meant someone weak, like a girl Hmm, pathetic etc.

From her website: ________

or

J.K. Rowling

A postal address rather than her families home address?
StringyPotatoes · 22/11/2021 17:36

Have you got another link for this, please? I've googled it a lot and all I can find is this article and some articles saying Marion Millar tweeted some photos of a ribbon in suffragette colours.

AssassinatedBeauty · 22/11/2021 17:37

That's not what was on the screenshot of Google that a different poster posted (@UndertonesOfCake). That screenshot showed the address that JKR had asked people to stop showing.

Phobiaphobic · 22/11/2021 17:39

Pink News reframing it as JKR condemning stunning and brave trans protestors. A new low.

BoreOfWhabylon · 22/11/2021 17:43

I've reported your post @UndertonesOfCake. You are adding to the doxxing by linking JKR to an entry that does not identify her as living at that address.

Wildheartsease · 22/11/2021 17:43

@AssassinatedBeauty

That's not what was on the screenshot of Google that a different poster posted (*@UndertonesOfCake*). That screenshot showed the address that JKR had asked people to stop showing.
Yes @AssassinatedBeauty you are right. The 3 twittering 'heros' posted her family address.

I think that @SpindlesWhorl was arguing that this posting didn't matter as her address was already in the public domain.

Clearly, JKR does not share her home address and asked all to remove the twitts post. As we can see - she herself only shares a postal address.

The twitts were attempting to lead harm to her actual home.

LuluBlakey1 · 22/11/2021 17:44

That Morningside Rd address will just be contact postal boxes- not where she lives.

halloweenie13 · 22/11/2021 17:44

I am fully aware and in support that trans individuals need support and protection from violence and hate within society. But what she has spoken out about is correct, women also need protection in spaces as we have been bottom of the pile for so long, in terms of equality, sexism and careers etc. Their (the individuals disclosing the address) actions are appalling and need reprimanding.

QueenSue · 22/11/2021 17:46

I'm also confused by the "don't be a cissy" sign. What did they think would happen? Did they think Rowling would see them and instead of calling the police, would think yes I need to change my feminist views and stop being a cissy, whatever that means?

AssassinatedBeauty · 22/11/2021 17:47

Um @SpindlesWhorl didn't do anything wrong. She posted on this thread the official and requested contact address to send support messages to JKR. It's not anyone's home address and is totally ok to post.

Separately, @UndertonesOfCake posted a screenshot from Google. The post has since been deleted, fairly promptly after I reported it. It showed the home address, and made the assumption (assertion? accusation?) that it was the official address of one of JKR's companies and had been put there deliberately. In fact, that information is scraped by Google from all kinds of places and isn't under the control of JKR or anyone from her representatives.

Soontobe60 · 22/11/2021 17:48

@Hoosemover

I not really sure what the issue. It is well known in Edinburgh where she lives thanks to the local paper. I have seen her drive into the property with her security in tow. She been getting death threats since forever because of her views on trans women, independence etc.
Oh well, that’s ok then…
Clymene · 22/11/2021 17:48

The DARVO that's happening on Twitter is quite something.

Pink news are utter poison, they will at some point be directly responsible for someone coming to harm (unless they go bankrupt first because of the sheer volume of settlements they keep having to make)
Mollyollydolly · 22/11/2021 17:50

How do you nominate someone for the House of Lords? I mean I know she'd probably turn it down, but I'd love to see a campaign for her to become a Baroness.
She is so utterly classy, clever and compassionate. A hero in a sea of fools.

There's quite a few thousand rabid TRAs that don't live in Edinburgh and now are able to send her death threats. People have been killed by letter bombs you know.

(will go back and read the rest of the thread now).
