Jey McCreight 🧬🏳️‍⚧️ in Elk: "JK Rowling has explicitly sa..."

Win: At gay trivia last night, an answer was JK Rowling and the whole bar broke out into loud angry boos

Fail: The trivia host thought the right way to respond was "Fuck her but love what she created, I'm so ready for Hogwarts Legacy!"

Like dude, read the room

JK Rowling has explicitly said, multiple times, that people continuing to buy Harry Potter stuff is proof that they agree with her transphobia

100% agreed.

Do you have any citable quotes to hand? I'd love to bookmark one to give to anyone who doubts the point.

@thebrand @jeymccreight there are several very in depth twitter threads (even by cis dudes) about what she said explicitly, whom she supported with money and what she left unspoken.
Google is your friend.

Thanks, silly of me to ask. I do research daily, so I should have just Googled in the first place.

normally I would explain such a thing, but there is a lot of context. And UK-specific stuff. So… it’s not so easy

no worries! I've managed to educate myself and got a few bookmarks I can hand out to folks who want to try to weasel word things.

@thebrand @fuchsi The thing about that is, you're also likely to find all of the "this is a good thing, actually" posts that put the spin on it.
