Absolutely love how this idiot has NO response to the fact that, under this trans identified males leadership, the rape crisis center in question allowed in a male rapist.

And while I know this idiot is just whining and crying while having no idea what Radfems believe, let me spell it out. Radfems do not think womanhood=feminine, nor do we think womanhood=white. That's the TRA crowd babe. @capricorn-season and @tra-archive have TONS of tweet on their blogs from trans "women" saying that if black women count as women, so do they.

Also, the majority of Radfems are POC.

Second. LOVE how they call pedophilia, rape, domestic violence, and murder "the slightest transgressions" like, way to minimize actual violence against women while simultaneously crying about how criticism of any TIM (in this case, the one fucking up a rape shelter) bigotry. Just another way to prove you don't care about women. You don't care about our safety. Also, JKR is personally covering ALL costs of Biera's Place, that's why she's allowed to exclude TIMs, it's a privately funded shelter.

But you keep hating women love, you're just driving away more and more of your supporters and frankly, I love that for you.

Иногда патриархат большой и страшный. Этакий монстр из сказки. Он убивает 14 тысяч человек и конвоем стоит у дверей университетов и больниц. Взрослым дядям не хочется на него смотреть, они только пожмут плечами, скажут: особенности чужой культуры. 

Иногда патриархат - рыцарь в блестящих доспехах. Герой-победитель. Он пишет твою историю за тебя, умалчивая некоторые детали. Галантно предложит подержать твою премию, что слишком тяжела (весома) для женщины. Умрёт за тебя на поле боя, но перед этим, оказавшись в деревне, где живет семья врага, достанет самое страшное своё оружие и будет мстить, пока корни его не разрастутся и здесь. Придёт день, и солнце в мирном небе над головой осветит лучами правду: в военных фильмах, когда мужчины говорят, что захватчики среди прочего похитили женщин, и клянутся вернуть своё, плевать они хотели на тебя и меня. Мы - собственность. Для обеих сторон, без плохих и хороших. 

Бывает и такое, что патриархат - раскаявшийся злодей. Может быть, целый легион злодеев: они смотрят на героев жалобно-жалобно и хором говорят «Мы больше так не будем!» Победила дружба, титры. А потом - мемы про Эмбер Херд и угрозы смерти в сторону Джоан Роулинг. А потом - девушка заранее подробно описывает, во что она была одета, почему была одна, и почему не смогла отреагировать сразу, прежде чем рассказать, что сделал мужчина. А потом, под шумок - новый президент в Туркменистане и один очень умный бизнесмен в Алматы. А потом, в этой жалкой пьесе, между Вторым и Третьим Мировым Актом, человеческая жизнь вдруг покажется им чрезвычайно важной. Особенно неначавшаяся. Особенно по сравнению с твоей.

А чего это вы такие серьёзные? Представляю вам гвоздь нашей комедийной программы: в роли королевского шута - патриархат! В роли самовлюблённого короля - тоже патриархат! В роли королевского советника, который точно попытается в баре подсыпать в бокал короля яд… он самый. Спорить с ними бесполезно, шут на то и гороховый, что любая умная/человечная мысль отлетает от него, как от бронежилета. В черепную коробку шута вмещается примерно пятьдесят четыре шутки про женскую логику, семнадцатилетний запас - про женские понты, триста шестьдесят пять - про изнасилование, двенадцать - о том, как бы разозлить тупых фемок, и в особых случаях, по праздникам - парочка о машинах и коробках для пиццы. И пока он шутит, а вокруг него одобрительно хрюкают, где-то рядом самовлюбленный король думает, на что бы ему обидеться. Ищет повод - не дай бог женщина ошибется, и еще хуже, если окажется права - в новостях, сериалах и на работе, в клубе и на улице, где ему непременно в чем-нибудь откажут, и где он обязательно найдет, что искал. И шутов, и королей хватает - это твои бывшие, их друзья, бывшие твоих подруг, твои начальник и коллеги, прохожие на улице, бывшие одноклассники, нынешние одногруппники, дальние родственники, близкие родственники, водители в такси и пассажиры в метро, и каждому хочется врезать. Пусть так. Хуже то, что каждый может оказаться советником. 

Разноплановый актёр наш мальчик Патя. И, кажется, бессмертный.

one thing I do not understand is why people on twitter insist on talking about how bad they think the Harry Potter series is now that they all hate JKR. the one I see the most often is “I can't believe she sad XYZ about the other wizard school she’s suuuucchhh a bad writer” its like they can't wrap their heads around the fact that a book series written over the course of over two decades by one person is gonna have some inconsistencies about minor storytelling details. why does it matter! just admit you can’t let it go!! stop talking about it!! go outside!!!

Libfems in the reblogs and comment section are so fucking stupid, istg I hope she takes some action soon.

Who is worse

Jkr

Neil Gaiman (rapist)

not people forgetting that regulus black canonically sacrificed his life in a horrific way at eighteen years old in his pursuit to destroy voldemort. they just hyperfixate on him becoming a death eater and ignore everything else he did.

I'm sorry, you think the woman who has funded a rape crisis shelter, donated hundreds of thousands of pounds to get female lawyers and their families out of their Afghanistan when it fell to the Taliban, and who founded Lumos, a charity for children in institutionalized care, hates women more than the males who fetishize us and our oppression?

Is it crack, is that what you smoke, you smoke crack?

For sure jkr is transphobic, but to say she hates trans women feels inaccurate to me, because it's not just trans women that she hates, it's all women. Look up her inspiration for Umbridge (or just read how she writes women, but this is especially egregious). She hates women, especially feminine women. Yes, it's a different kind of hatred from her hatred for trans women, but I just think it would be more impactful to call her transphobic and misogynistic/women hating, because that's two things that she is, and it paints a clearer picture. Maybe people who don't give a rats ass about trans rights (losers, but unfortunately still losers we want to agree with us) hears that she hates women and sees how clear it is and maybe starts to think critically.

By all means highlight her specific and distinct hatred for trans people, for trans women especially, and for the cruelty and harm she has inflicted on the community, but when we talk about the transphobic terf jkr, maybe we should stop letting her be called a terf. There's not a feminist bone in her body (true of most "terfs" it seems). Let's call her what she is: a transphobic, antisemitic, misogynistic hack.

JK Rowling literally has been going full blown mask off Zionist, and not enough people have been calling her out for how little she cares about Palestinians facing genocide all the while she is going full blown TERF and occaisionally responding to in support of and liking tweets from Zionists who actuvely support Israel's genocide of Palestinians.

These are her most recent tweets where she is showing how much of a vile Zionist and denier of Israel's genocide of Palestinians that she is.

Never forget that JK Rowling spread these debunked lies that the Israeli government used to justify escalating their genocide of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank and has never shown remorse for spreading such lies back in October, even after said lies were debunked.

So the Holocaust denier JK Rowling also denies Israel's genocide of Palestine and actively supports the genocidal apartheid regime known "Israel".

A famous female writer said something you don't like but nothing illegal "we should cancel her fandom, I hope she dies"

A famous male writer did something at best disgusting (having sex with a girl with such an age and power gap is disgusting) at worst completely inhumane (Rape, emotional manipulation): "well there are some terfs involved in the accuse, and, we should wait to see! Maybe it wasn't actually Rape!"

You're all so disgusting you make me puke

J.K.Rowling really was ahead of her time when she wrote Chamber of Secrets, because Ginny writing in Riddle’s diary and slowly being manipulated, exploited and abused by him, while she though he was her friend is such a good allegory for grooming.

Today in “we get it, you hate JKR” or “is this really activism?”:

Oh no! The community - like most - enjoys Harry Potter?! Better slap that nonsense out of their mouths ASAP. Don’t they know how bad that is? Librarians should always go against their community’s needs and interests, it’s how they stay open!

This man goes on to say that the library actually experienced a run-in with a conservative group that attacked the library through legislation, nearly got it shut down, and sent death threats to library staff. So obviously the best thing to do is write them a self-serving letter about how Harry Potter Bad:

Some brain trusts in the comments point out that their communities are not Woke Enough and continue to enjoy an engaging book series for young people. One even claims to minimize Harry Potter’s presence as much as possible at their library, like any honest librarian would.

Oh no! Children enjoy reading?? What should we do to shut that nightmare down??

Further intellectuals let us know that JKR Has Always Been Bad and Why Does Thing Need Theme At All If Not Woke:

“Surely something that’s generic and shows that we are Firmly Against That Woman would be more fun to organize?”

Harry Potter is hanging on because it is a good book series, a good movie series… it’s games and a theme park and people like it. It has nothing to do with money being “tied up” in it, that’s just called “people talking with their money” or “being normal consumers.”

I love the lengths these people will go to in order to find any fault with the series or events around it, just so they can virtue-signal how much they hate JKR.

Nick the Geek: leave your fucking library alone. Or start doing activism for it that isn’t performative. Donate books. Tutor ESL learners. Offer to give your time teaching hobbies to others. Help seniors with computers. Those all take work, but they are things the library actually needs, not another bearded man whose profile says he’s “trying to be nicer” writing them useless letters. Their programming was probably already bought and paid for, with a specifically allocated budget, and you demanding they change course does nothing but add onto the pile of nonsense they don’t need.

Why Regulus dying was crucial to the plot of Art Heist Baby!

It really pisses me off and people say "Omg it's so sad that Regulus never finished the heist, why did the author have to kill him?! He never finished his life's purpose" No it's not,  because that wasn't what he wanted in life, he achieved everything that he wanted.

The story doesn't work if Regulus lives. Art Heist Baby isn't about the heist. I mean it kind of is, that was what drew me into the fanfic, why I read it. But, as I read it, I realized that it's not about the heist, it's about love, it's a love letter from @otrtbs, the author, to art history and to the fandom, and about the love of found family, brothers reuniting, and falling in love and all the sappy stuff.

But Regulus and the readers by extension, have always thought that it's about the heist, that it's about the infamy and being remembered, and that's how he lives forever, the heist gets him his brother back, the heist lets him live forever.

But then in Copenhagen, when he's literally dying, he's having this internal monologue, like, maybe I failed this heist and it's not successful and I didn't do what I wanted and I wasn't the best person, but I was loved,  I am loved and I have loved back, he says that he knows he can take that love with him wherever he goes, even if he's a damn star in the sky, it doesn't matter. He's taking that love with him, it lives on, and that is its own form of immortality. That's what Regulus had been searching for this entire time and even after Regulus dies, James is still there, and Sirius and Barty and Evan hell all the others in the team, and it's like even death can't defeat that kind of love. We see James talking to Regulus every night and recounting memories and keeping Regulus alive in a way, which is what Regulus always wanted!!!! Just not in the way he thought he was going to get it.

I mean, otherwise what's the alternative? Regulus lives and he's happy with James, and maybe that's better than living on an infamy and better than the heist because, well, he's actually alive, but it's not just about love. Regulus and by extension, the reader wouldn't have this moment of realisation like, oh, it's love, love is the answer. Love is what makes all of us a little bit immortal for a little while. That's what it's all about in the end. Not the money or fame or notoriety. Just love. And Regulus dying feels like it was the best way Nat could have driven that point home. Like plz look past the heist, what else is there?

Because Regulus spent his whole life thinking that this was his goal. Just one more heist, that's what he'd always said right? One more heist, this is the last one. This is it. He'll have achieved everything he's ever wanted. Except, it's not what he wanted. Because throughout the story, he gets his brother back, he gets Sirius back in his life after spending years in silent mourning dangling just as precariously as the daunting Degas in the bathroom, he gets his brother back. He sees Barty and Evan who have spent their whole life going back and forth, finally getting together. He watches them grow up and grow together, and he spends his entire life with them. He brings together this group of strangers, this ragtag team of random people that applied via a fucking poster about a lucrative job and watches them bond. He watches relationships form, he connects with the Remus through annotations and books and a shared love for Sirius, he organizes dorlene's proposal and wedding!!!!

He bonds with all these people that he never would have met if he led a normal life, and then he meets James. He meets James Potter, who teaches him everything, who lets him borrow his bravery and shows him that life could be so much more if he wanted it to be, which he does.

"I love you, that's all." His last words, love, that's all. Not the heist, not the drop offs, not the money or the fame or the glory. Love, that's all. He started getting involved with the heists to feel loved, to get the attention that Sirius got from their parents growing up. Some superficial kind of love, and his life ends after he gets real love, platonic and romantic. Love, that's all, not the heist. He died with everything he knew he always wanted but never had the bravery to attain until then. That's why he said maybe he hadn't lived a long life but he lived the best life he could have.

Nat literally told us the reason with Regulus' last words and all of us decided to turn a blind eye to it, yes, yes ik it was heartbreaking to see him die and not live in the house in Brazil with James but we do see them meet again in the epilogue don't we? And let's trust Regulus and the author both when they said

"in every lifetime?"

"in every one."

When did she advocate for the total annihilation of trans people?
