JK Rowling at it again this time being Racist as well... [View all]

It seems like not a day goes by without JK Rowling saying something profoundly bigoted. Apparently not content with misgending a trans journalist or engaging in Holocaust denialism of trans victims of Nazi hate, has decided to outright bully a transgender referee... who never did anything to nor said anything about Ms Rowling at all.

Yep that is right, is harrassing a trans woman for no reason what-so-ever other than to bully her.

Cruel JK Rowling calls trans soccer official a “crossdressing straight man” for no reason
The wealthy author with millions of followers said it's not "punching down" to lash out at a relatively obscure trans woman.

The latest target of J.K. Rowling’s increasingly vicious transphobia is a history-making trans soccer official who did nothing to Rowling that could have provoked the tirade.

Lucy Clark became the first ou trans soccer referee in the world when she was hired to call games for England women’s soccer’s third tier. This year, she made history again by becoming the first out trans manager in the history of competitive English soccer when she was hired to manage Sutton United.

Rowling responded to a now-deleted post from an LGBTQ+ nonprofit praising Clark and implied she was a middle-aged man.

“When I was young all the football managers were straight, white, middle-aged blokes, so it’s fantastic to see how much things have changed,” she wrote.

In response to backlash, she called Clark a crossdresser, misgendered her, and said trans women are merely caricatures of cisgender women.

But honestly... the worlds most prominent TERF being a bigot to trans people is nothing new. Almost not even worth reporting on anymore except this time in order to try and dig her way out of the hole she dug for herself she has decided to be Racist as well. Because why not?

JK Rowling slammed for asking if she can be Black if she likes “Motown & fancy myself in cornrows”
By Alex Bollinger Monday, May 13, 2024

British author J.K. Rowling continued to battle with progressives on social media, asking those who oppose her transphobia whether she could call herself Black if she got into Motown music and wore her hair in cornrows.

Rowling, who has devoted most of her social media presence this past year to attacking transgender rights, wrote a post on X this past weekend calling a trans woman soccer manager a “middle-aged bloke.” The trans woman never even interacted with Rowling and did nothing to provoke her response and the ensuing harassment she received from Rowling’s millions of followers.

Rowling responded to her critics, saying that she was not “punching down” and called the trans woman a “crossdressing straight man.”

That’s when Rowling decided to compare being trans to blackface – an argument common to white anti-trans activists – and brought in some stereotypes of what it means to be Black.

“Does this apply to any other demographic, Landon?” Rowling asked. “Do I get to be black if I like Motown and fancy myself in cornrows? What if I claim the authentic me has always been black and that you’re being racist to me? Would that be OK, or would you find it ludicrous and deeply offensive?”

Apparently head TERF doesn't understand that that gender idenitity is rooted in biology, while racial idenitity is not. Not to mention other nuances that make the two completely different issues....

Surely no-one will continue to defend her and say she isn't a trans-antagonistic bigot right? RIGHT!???

...yeah I won't hold my breath either.
