Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

lol harry potter but there has never been a better for canon for "this is kind of fun but it is flawed as fuck and now I can fix it". shame jkr ruined it by being an anti-trans bigot.

This is Star Wars for me, except replace JKR with Star Wars Bros and anti-trans with anti everything.

This is sadly my experience of Doctor Who fandom. :(

JKR even believes, or believed, circa the publication of her essay, that gender identity can be a thing and that some people can be trans. She said she referred to, and thought of, the trans people she knew according to their claimed identity.

You're just mad that she also thinks that women should be able to organise on the basis of their sex, that women should be entitled to single-sex provision in spaces they are vulnerable, and that you can't cow her because she's earned so much money that she never needs to fear losing a job.

JKR is so transphobic, even Elon Musk was like, "hey, maybe take a chill pill".

Woman is so set on women's rights, even a known misogynist is like "hey, maybe take a chill pill". (because women are hysterical, am i rite?)

Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

You are correct to be mad at Elon Musk, yes.

JKR defends Nazis. (She always finds a way to walk it back after, but she keeps doing it again.) If your need to "protect women's spaces" requires letting Nazis into them, you've gone very, very, very wrong.

Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

You're going to have to back that up.

She "always". DO you know who Nazis are? Do you know the difference between JKR and KJK?

Do you know that a 'Let Women Speak' gathering in a public space in which the Proud Boys appear is not a women's space?

You're objecting to my "Always"??

Are you trying to defend her by saying that she defends Nazis and sometimes doesn't bother to walk it back? I'll grant you that, it's possible there are times she has defended Nazis and not walked it back, I don't track her that closely. The half a dozen or so times I have witnessed her defending Nazis, she has at least attempted to claim it wasn't really defending Nazis when called on it, but you're right, maybe there have been times she was completely shameless about it and I never heard anything, I was being charitable when I said "always".

I’m mad that she’s so extreme about “woman’s rights” that she’s palling around with Nazis.

Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

Oh. You actually think this sounds intelligent, don't you? Cringe.

Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

[(Anonymous)]

Nowhere near as cringe as believing humans can change sex :) Or that you can somehow be internally a woman while being a man indistinguishable from any other man on the planet.

Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

[(Anonymous)]

Unlike you, I'm not concerned with posturing intelligence or whatever it is you're trying to do.

Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

I'm mad that she engaged in Holocaust revisionism. I'm mad that she liked tweets from a far-right militia group. I'm mad that she works with anti-abortion activists. And that's without even getting into her putting her time, energy, and money into taking rights away from trans people. The fact that you continue to support her in spite of these things says a lot about you.

Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

[(Anonymous)]

Yet you can't provide any proof of these things and you don't know what Holocaust revisionism is.
