Are you forgetting the time JK Rowling accused Olympic women’s boxing champion Imane Khelif of being a man, because she isn’t white? I think there’s no excuse for racist and misogynist comments like that. I do believe Rowling was being sincere in her opinions of Imane. The problem is that Rowling genuinely cannot tell Algerian women from men, and yet still insists on subjecting the world to her opinion.
She mistook a woman for a man, it happens more often than you’d think. Yes, she should stay out of it, or at least did some minimum research on the woman first.
Hopefully she apologized, and everyone actually involved moved on. Empathy is an important emotion, but like all emotions, it needs to be regulated. This 3rd party victimhood is unhealthy.
As I said, I don’t agree with a lot of whats she’s said, but it’s not like she’s not calling for mass violence against a group of people unlike a certain Genius’ first few posts here. Reflect a bit, who the one acting like a Nazi here? GTFO.
She didn’t. Imane had to make a criminal complaint to the French authorities for harassment. Rowling isn’t sorry.
Rowling’s political views ARE relevant to UK laws which affect trans people’s lives. Labour sought a meeting with Rowling to discuss their new gender transition policy last year. Rowling demanded that Labour speak with various other groups she listed before she would meet with them, including the transphobic “LGB Alliance”. She is exerting political power on the government of the United Kingdom to pursue a transphobic agenda with real consequences.
