Current Events » rowling is having a melt down over something
It's kind of amazing how much her tone on this conversation has changed.

Just a few years ago she was like "Look, I just have some questions about gender" or "I'm concerned about trans kids making hasty decisions"

And now she's just like "i hate crossdressing blokes they can fuck off"

Is it weird that i read the first bit in the tune of Dolly Partons Jolene?
That song was the first thing that popped into my head after reading the topic title too for some reason.
That's just prime!

Can people please stop giving into their Pottermania nostalgia, so that she'll finally lose her money and platform?

Its making the right embrace her as " one of them" and back her instead sadly.

There's no way to make her lose her money, and she'd spend the rest of her life complaining as loudly as possible about being canceled (with conservatives platforming her) if the franchise actually lost relevance.

dude's successfully made some of the topics about whatever garbage Rowling's doing about them, it's actually really strange in hindsight.

Also they are popular all over the world, and the attitudes vary widely from culture to culture. Some are fine with her transphobia, or even agree with it. Some countries don't know about it because even if it's popular no one is interested in what the author does so nobody hears about it. And in a lot of cultures, people just don't care about things like whether things they buy are supporting an odious person or cause. They just buy what they like and don't think beyond that.

What I'm saying is, expecting worldwide sales to drop significantly because of this is a pipe dream.

I think it's legit, or at least not trying to deflect from Rowling. They do it whenever there's a topic talking negatively about Naruto too, and Kishimoto hasn't done anything vile

It's more just the fact that they're both successful IPs that are actually quite flawed and easy to pick apart once the initial spectacle wears off, and both have gotten middling at best sequels/supplementary material (Boruto, Cursed Child and the FB movies) that nobody was really asking for.

That said, no, Kishi himself isn't really a detestable person. I don't think, anyway, you really don't hear much about him. Somehow I know more about Oda and Kubo than I do about Kishi despite the fact that I never followed One Piece or Bleach too closely.

Also, thinking about this made me realize that Harry Potter narratively has a lot in common with shonen manga, including its own tournament arc. I wonder if that's part of why the series got popular in Japan.

the most i can say about kishi is based on his writing he has some very iffy views on woman

but ive never heard anything malicious about the guy

he is a very private person thoe so who knows

You know, the word "meltdown" does get thrown around too much. Most of the time the person only seems mildly peeved and totally in control.

But not this time. JKR is acting unHINGED, and if you genuinely think this is normal, rational behavior, I don't know what to tell you.

Didn't strike me as a meltdown. I thought she was sneering at people who call her 'Joanne' repeatedly to try and rattle her.

If that's the case, it's a bit rich that she of all people is asking people to refer to her in a specific way.

This is relatively high effort Id say. Shes dedicating serious mental bandwidth to this, of that there is no doubt.

She makes like 1-2 tweets a day on that are mostly just her retweeting something else and giving an opinion on it she knows is going to get people angry flocking to her, really regardless of what she even says at this point. Sometimes she just straight up does a line of emojis and calls it a day. If you think that is high effort I dunno what to tell ya

If you really think that JK Rowling isnt absolutely seething every time she composes each and every one of these tweets, then I question your level of reading comprehension.

To be clear, I don't think that's the reason she shits on trans people, I think that's the reason she tweets as much as she does.

Boredom + hate = harmful social media posting.

??? Who said it was an excuse? It is just what it is. I know the imagery of rowling fuming and breaking her keyboard before going to her giant billionaire keyboard closet to pick out a new one in tears makes everyone warm and fuzzy in their tummies but it just isn't how it is, except maybe the keyboard closet part. BIllionaires do not give a FUCK about what any of us think, ESPECIALLY not even in their own continent. They DO however still love the attention of their peon subjects, thus the Jk Rowling twitter cycle is born and shall continue until the day she grows old and dies because people will never stop replying to her, and she will never stop loving that attention

You'd think that billionaires wouldn't care. I don't think I'd care if I were that rich. But surprisingly, a lot of them do care. And they can be really petty about it.

I think it really bothers JK Rowling that people are disagreeing with her so strongly and so uniformly. I think she's telling herself that she's right and history will vindicate her, but she can see the signs that she's wrong. And the cognitive dissonance is genuinely bothering her.

Ah yes, regularly pushing transphobic nonsense, financially supporting anti-trans groups and initiatives, and signal boosting things that actively harm and demonize a community of people as rapists is all just some basic bitch trolling.

Nah. She believes in the shit she does.

The very unfortunate thing is that some support her hateful views, so she also gets endorsements and people cheering her on. Which is addictive in itself.

It is weird how people against progress always think they're holding out for some future where people will look back favorably on them, but I can't actually think of a case of that happening.

someone replying to a good amount of people that talk about them certainly doesn't care.

just like how someone that just refreshes a website every few seconds to see if the person they're arguing with replied doesn't care.

I dont imagine you were smashing keyboards while typing out this little melty.

Rowling absolutely spends an unhealthy amount of time seething, she writes entire novels of transphobia about getting mobbed on Twitter, painting trans women as rapist predator murderers, essays, appears on podcast interviews to frame trans people and allies as like the death eaters on potter, etc.

Imagine writing whole novels and publishing them, that takes work, and her motivation was irrational fear, anger, and hatred.

Considering how many of times she pursued actual legal action over people accurately describing her, I'd say she's pretty fuckin' upset about it.

No, but dont you see, this is how she has a little fun in the afternoon playtime! Shes far too rich and important to be having bigoted meltdowns on social media over people like us. When she was busy referring to trans rights activists as rapist rights activists, its totally in the spirit of fun. What joy!

We were so wrong! Hahaha.
