#we can't even point out that someone is publicly supporting alt right talking heads without being legally threatened for it

Today on twitter:
A gay man and actor, JJ Wells (intentional misspelling to avoid the wrong crowd finding this), several weeks ago, noted some parallels between JKR's actions and the alt right groups her actions align with. This is not unfounded, as it follows her sending support to publicly known alt right figures.
JKR responds that JJ is libelling/defaming her. Her followers go after JJ. JJ has to lock his account. This is the second gay man JKR & Co have bullied off twitter in the span of a few months, the first being Graham Norton, following Graham saying that he didn't want to take a side in the trans debate, but he encouraged people to talk to trans people, and this was somehow offensive to JKR.
Today, JJ has tweeted a very carefully worded statement, apologising for defaming/libelling JKR.
England has absolutely ridiculous laws RE libel, that likely meant that when JJ called a spade a spade a few months ago, JKR was able to sic her team of lawyers on him. So, not just satisfied with bullying gay men off social media, she's now hitting them with SLAPP laws. It would also be remiss not to point out that she is a millionaire and JJ is... not.
If I've said it once I've said it a million times; there is nothing more fragile than the ego of a rich conservative woman.
#it's just so fucking bleak#we can't even point out that someone is publicly supporting alt right talking heads without being legally threatened for it#all JJ did was tell the truth and here we fucking are
