But that's exactly my point: She wasn't cancelled. She continues to make hand over fist in cash while maintaining her status as a billionaire and prolific writer. All while using her money and reputation to ruin trans people's lives while crying as the victim.
If you're tired of hearing about JK Rowling that's valid. If I never heard of her again I'd be more than happy. But the point is that she continues to gain coverage/attention in her fight against trans rights with startlingly effective results. So long as trans people are being persecuted then in my opinion we can't leave these things be. Because silence will only embolden those with these ways of thinking.
I apologize if I've been short with you. The last OP kept acting like they knew me or have any context for why I feel the way that I do. I'm very opinionated on the subject; but the people I love are affected by issues like this so I have to be.
You can speak for yourself in that regard. I work with, hangout with, donate to, and live with trans people. The issue is a very deep and real one to me because transphobia affects every aspect of my loved ones lives. On top of that: defending tranphobes actively helps and emboldens the right.
The right want nothing more than the ability to say and do whatever they want with impunity. I will call out bigoted acts every time because that's part of combatting them. Not placating these ideas as if they're kids that don't know better.
Again, JK Rowling has never engaged with the trans community in good faith. She deserves literally nothing; and unless she has a gargantuan reversal of thoughts and actions then she can fuck off forever.
Birds of a feather flock together, guess that's why you're defending JK Rowling. Cancel culture is a made up term used to place blame for someone's bad actions on the victims/group calling it out. Before the made up term "cancel culture" it was just called consequences.
Cry all you want about something made up, JK Rowling deserves no sympathy and is an utter piece of shit. The fact that you're so insistant on that tells me everything I need to know about your feelings towards trans people.
Even worse. Updated
She is a billionaire that invests her resources into persecuting people for who they are and simply existing. Your acting as if she's some teenager that said something without thinking. She a full grown adult who should know better, but instead acts like a child having a tantrum whenever she's called out. I'm just some person saying fuck her for all of her bullshit. Don't pretend as if we're the same. We are not.
Your attempt to compare us is not only disingenuous, but your rhetoric is actively condoning the multiple transphobic actions JK Rowling has made. She doesn't deserve coddling: she's fucking 58 years old. We can talk about human connection and pretend that "cancel culture" exists all we want. That doesn't change the fact that she started raging against people's human rights and then doubled down when called out. And until she recognizes how harmful her actions are she doesn't deserve the slightest bit of consideration or pity. She doesn't give it to the trans community, why the fuck should I give it to her? Just so she can spit on it and tell me to go die? Fuck that.
Though that's a point I don't expect someone yelling "cancel culture" to actually absorb and reflect on.
But she also has every single resource to escape her line of thinking while refusing to do so. She has never interacting with the trans community in any sort of good faith: so she does not deserve it in kind.
None of this is "cancel culture": again it's calling out her horrific thoughts and ideas. Plus those same horrific thoughts and ideas have tangible horrific effects. Fuck JK Rowling.
It's not "cancel culture": it's calling out their horrific beliefs. If gettings called out on having horrible thoughts leads you to becoming more extreme in those thoughts then you're just a bad person.
Plus JK Rowling is still rolling in millions of dollars. She has every resource and avenue to learn better, and actively chooses not to. Fuck JK Rowling and her transphobic bullshit.
I'm actively watching the rights of my loved one literally be stripped away while Biden does fuck all. You can call me whatever you want, but the point remains that Biden has done fuck all and is actively promoting genocide.
You don't know the first thing about me; so don't condescend to me while ignoring everything else I've said.
Yes, it is still objectively right. Anyone deciding not to vote for Biden isn't automatically culpable for any Trump victory unless they voted for him personally.
Again, Biden has had plenty of time to prove that he's against genocide. To take any sort of major action to try and stop this genocide from continuing the way that it has. Or at the very least taking away all US military funding from Israel. He has done none of that while approving additional military funding for Israel.
This is of course before bringing up the electoral college and how the majority of states don't even get a say in the presidential election outside of their states predetermined answer.
I will not vote for anyone funding genocide. Again, if Trump wins that's entirely on Biden and the Democrats for failing to do anything. The signs have been here for months if not years in terms of voter disatisfaction: and they continue to do fuck all.
I wouldn't water opposing genocide down to "ideological purity". It's opposing genocide, and that's objectively right every time.
And that's before getting into Joe's inaction on pretty much any important issues during his term. If Trump wins the 2024 election then outside of the GOP that's entirely on Joe Biden for failing to oppose genocide and run any sort of compelling administration.
That Christian Nationalist USA is already present. It's emboldening is inevitable due to the inaction from Democrats and especially Biden: the alleged "moderate" president.
Biden is also actively arming a genocide in Gaza. A move I would say is extremely far from moderate in any position. Trump is a horrible choice for president. It was true in 2016 and it's true now. But if Biden refuses to do even the barest of minimums to defeat him in an election what does that say about Biden?
So sure, call it smugness, call it idiotic or whatever bullshit; continue to vilify those tired of voting for bullshit candidates and inaction. I'm sure that will help prove your point; as Biden does literally nothing to combat any of increasingly tense situations rising in the US under his tenure.
Atheists be like "look at all the things my real and not made up methodology can do" and then post science fiction.
Your comment is at odds with your other comments. And you'd think a scientist would know about the scientific measurements of the placebo effect rather than boiling it down to faith: which is asinine.
No it isn't lol. You can tangibly observe, experiment, and interact with the placebo effect/pharmaceuticals. There is a literal method that is used to prove things like the placebo effect.
Faith (from the religious understanding) is for that which can't be proven, thus antithetical to science. And before I hear something bogus like "faith in the method": that method has proven itself millions of times over with physical tangible proof.
Hell if you Google the definition of faith the second one is literally "strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof."
You're finally leaving. Good. Fuck off and come back when you're not a misogynist. Or better yet just fuck off for good.
Also they blocked me so with any luck they've actually fucked off for good. Or they're so pathetic they're still pissing around my comments.
You care about women so much that you proclaim anyone defending women's place in sports a dunce and spouting propaganda
We all know you hate women dude.
You should learn to respect women.
Sure buddy. Whatever helps your obnoxious and wrong misogynistic brain sleep at night.
That's how you win and shut me out of the conversation, lol. Which is exactly what you're trying to do.
People tend to do that to ya when you're personality is centered around being wrong and obnoxious.
At least you're done with the dumb questions!
Medicare and Medicaid are a bandaid that do fuck all for the current US healthcare environment. I don't give a single shit about PBS, or NPR. The NTSB would have happened regardless of administration. And I don't give a single fuck about who was up for election 1964. Johnson pulled the trigger on Vietnam and murdered millions as a result. Not that I expect you to care at all.
And it doesn't matter how I vote because I live in a hard red state in a US where the electoral college still exists. So I won't vote for Joe or Trump since Trump is a racist fuck and Biden is giving funds to genociding zionists in the middle east. Anymore dumb questions?
