Dawn French under fire on Instagram

[DungareesAndTrombones]

She posted a link to a podcast with Fearne Cotton where she briefly mentioned JK Rowling and then something else about cancel culture and the comments section is rife with people telling her JK is a holocaust denier and that she sides with people who want to eradicate trans people from the face of the earth.

I mean 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Ladies and gentlemen i give you the 'be kind' brigade.

I feel I've missed a thing: how the hell are they trying to pin holocaust denial on JKR?!?!

Right, Google was my friend: what a crock of shit🤔😕

I'm not sure of the details but some fool from Novara media said something (I suspect it followed along from the Izzard lie that trans were the most persecuted demographic by the nazis🙄). JKR demanded an apology which was forthcoming. However, the tras have latched onto this, accusing JKR of using her wealth to crush an honest journalist who was just telling the truth Guv🙄🙄. They don't even care they're just trying to needle JKR and, of course, bully/shame anyone who they suspect of offering her a modicum of support. Evil fuckwits.

I think being a smart woman that she knew what would be coming.

JKR disputed the assertion that the Holocaust was, in fact, all about trans people.

They don't even care they're just trying to needle JKR and, of course, bully/shame anyone who they suspect of offering her a modicum of support.

Or apparently that it makes them look increasingly unhinged.

How many people do they think are going to hear this and go "oh, sure, that makes sense - this is probably a well-adjusted person telling me this"?

I listened to the interview, and I could tell she was really screwing her courage to the sticking place. Good for her. I hope more do the same.

This was the tweet.

I'm not on Instagram. Sounds like a flashback to 2017 !

Go Dawn!

Thank you everyone. After seeing the other supplied information,I repeat: what a crock of shit 🙃

Love this.

Some pompous oaf on X offering to 'educate' Dawn on the subject. But 'please don't use the word Debate' , this being tantamount to genocide or something.

But the S S Debate sailed off a couple of years ago you fool. Now we just do a bit of gardening and use the courts.

There were books on trans healthcare in the 1930s and 40s??

I’m pretty sure the Nazis wrote them after their horrendous experimenting on their poor poor victims.

The Nope Tshirt is perfect.

I do not know a huge amount about this, but this is quite informative.

There's another picture here, the porn stands out

Thank you. Bookmarking that.

Hi folks on the whole nazis burned books on transgender studies. load of old bollocks.

Many moons ago

I did an A level essay on persecuted groups under far right regimes, aside from the Jewish people.

Including book burning and what books.

Homosexuality was a target group.

I discovered that cross dressing and transvestism, S&M, and BDSM were commonly found in such regimes.

Whilst insisting that the population had strict gender roles

You can find photos on google especially German ones

One can safely conclude who the Nazis really are

What do you mean by “the porn stands out”?

The Nazis genuinely did burn books which contained research on transgender surgery, "third genders" and so on. Rowling might not have been aware of this, but she was (perhaps unintentionally) denying one of the Nazi's many crimes in that tweet. Whether that makes her a holocaust denier is something mumsnet isn't exactly best equipped to litigate...

If you can zoom in on the pictures it's basically boobs galore
