J.K. Rowling had to return civil rights award

RE: J.K. Rowling had to return civil rights award
Quote:Or she just doesn't agree with your views.
Or she is transphobic bigot and disagreement has nothing to do with it . Or of course i disagree with a transphobic bigot 


Quote:Amazing that such "inclusive people" are so offended by someone with a differing opinion.

I doubt very much this will hurt her career in the least.
Bigotry has no place in inclusion such a thing is self defeating 


Quote:She is worth somewhere around 1 billion dollars.

You think she gives a shit what we think of her?
And yet she whines endlessly about how persecuted she is for people chewing here out for her bullshit

I once remarked that I wished black people had better jobs. I was excoriated for it, when what I meant was that black people should have the opportunity FOR better jobs.

I think the situation with Rowling may be similar.

JK Rowling’s comment Carries the unmistakable insinuation that trans gender people are morally twisted creeps who hacked off their own genitals so they can go into ladies room and molest real women.
Yup but were not allowed to call her bigot because her fees fees

If the first two comments are suppose to make her look good they fail miserably and the last one sounds like something some says when they know they fucked up and need to cover their ass .

Then we get lovely stuff like this
