+1 I'm grateful that she's using her platform for this issue |
And they went after another guy for retweeting a limerick. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/transgender-tweets-harry-miller-high-court-ruling-hate-crime-free-speech-a4362181.html |
In this country, all hate speech is okay. I don't cheer on the European hate speech laws, personally. While I understand that there are differences in culture and in history, I don't think hate speech laws are a great idea for any country. YMMV |
Agreed. After seeing what happens in the UK, I’m grateful that our forefathers had the foresight to protect speech in this country. |
Absolutely. JK Rowling funded a women's shelter for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. And, gasp, the shelter won't allow biological men who identify as women to room with victims of male violence. Clearly, JK Rowling is a horrible person. Anyone that creates a safe space for women is obviously engaging in hate speech and needs to be cancelled and endlessly harassed. Thank goodness for our online social justice warriors. |
+ 1 She's a true feminist, not to mention one of the few self-made billionaires, a philanthropist, and a brave BAMF. One of the most inspirational women alive. |
Her other actions and the actions of others are irrelevant. Hate speech is hate speech. |
And using her platform to spread anti-trans hate. |
No, she's not doing that. Nor is she "stirring up hate". She is being controversial and, apparently, offensive. Not the same thing. |
She’s a bigoted bulky who uses her platform to spread hate. Katie Neeves, a trans woman who was appointed a UN Women UK delegate, was mentioned by Ms Rowling in a previous thread on X. The author claimed Ms Neeves "switched from straight man to lesbian at the age of 48". Ms Neeves told BBC News she was "very disappointed" with Police Scotland. She said: "JK Rowling is a bully and this act was designed to stop bullying, and if they're not going to enforce it then that's very disappointing." "She listed me and some other trans people along with some sex offenders and put it out to 14 million of her followers. "That was inciting hatred and it resulted in me receiving thousands of messages of hate. So it's done what she set out for it to do." Ms Neeves said the story had been published all over the world and was "all misinformation about me". She added: "It's horrible and it's really harmful." |
Only if you consider it anti-trans hate to say that transwomen are human males, aka men. It also happens to be truth. |
To a rigid mind, or if this was court proceedings, you'd be right. But you're wrong, because we're not in court, and we are intelligent people who can cut a break to good people. |
Of course she is. “ "She listed me and some other trans people along with some sex offenders and put it out to 14 million of her followers. "That was inciting hatred and it resulted in me receiving thousands of messages of hate. So it's done what she set out for it to do." Ms Neeves said the story had been published all over the world and was "all misinformation about me". She added: "It's horrible and it's really harmful."” |
It's not "hate" to point out that trans women are not cis-women. It's just a fact. |
So it’s considered hate to say that a transgender person transitioned? Interesting |
