It was no April Fool’s joke.
Harry Potter author-turned culture warrior J.K. Rowling kicked off the month with an 11-tweet social media thread in which she argued 10 transgender women were men — and dared Scottish police to arrest her.
Rowling’s intervention came as a controversial new Scottish government law, aimed at protecting minority groups from hate crimes, took effect. And it landed amid a fierce debate over both the legal status of transgender people in Scotland and over what actually constitutes a hate crime.
Already the law has generated far more international buzz than is normal for legislation passed by a small nation’s devolved parliament.
How dare people disagree with me!?
He says, clearly salty that somebody disagrees with him.
Wrong, but ok lol. Believe what you want sweetie.
Lol you really are defending Joe Rogan, Elon musk and Rowling. They’re not worth it. One is an obnoxious podcaster, one is a conman and one is a mediocre writer. A damn weird hill to die on.
Don’t forget that he defended Israel and Russia.
The guy is very clearly a troll.

When people disagree with me that humans should have some basic human rights, then yes, fuck those sub-humans who disagree.
Nothing good in all of human history has ever come from conservatism. Not one single thing. Yet nearly every act of racism, xenophobia, homophobia, misogyny, transphobia and other bigotry ever committed has been by conservatives.
It sounds like what we disagree on most is if there is such a thing as a “good conservative” anywhere on planet earth. I’m not convinced there is.

Your account is one day old and, of your 50 comments, nearly all of them are downvoted into oblivion. I don’t think the progressives on Lemmy are falling for any of your weird conservative takes. You might want to try out Truth Social instead. They might be more receptive.

Stfu cunt.
The fact that your comment is not deleted by moderators but the comments of the other guy are… man… this network is losing tha basic principles of what reddit signifies.
Oh no, I said a bad word to someone that supports genocide, Israel, Russia, and hates gay people.
I don’t know what he said or what he is cause its deleted by the mods… but I see what you said ! You insulted him! No mod cared about it!!
Imho This is what the worst Russia looks like . Bullies and no freedom of speech. Hate first, talk later. Corrupt police.
Full disclosure: I can’t agree with the latest JK but I fully understand how she got there… you fabricated her.
Money transformed her. She got those royalty cheques and figured out she can say whatever the fuck she wants cause litigation against her is impossible. She is just another Pharisee parading her obscene wealth and influence. Also, free speech is made the fuck up. No speech is free. What you speak into the world transforms it. Especially with their reach.
Give her some credit. She had donated a lot of her money. At least she puts her money where her mouth is.
You know exactly what he said, and you cuntinue to defend a homophobic troll.
Good for you.

Man… it isnt like I agree with you but the mods are deleting your comments like… automatically. I really though Lemmy was a better place than that… I guess I’m going back to the cavern (or reddit)
