Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling slammed transgender activists Monday for publicizing her home address on social media.

On Friday night, the eve of Transgender Day of Remembrance, comedian Holly Stars, actor Georgia Frost and drag king Richard Energy staged a demonstration in front of Rowling's home near Edinburgh, Scotland, in protest against her controversial views on the trans community.

In a thread on Twitter, Rowling bashed the trio for "doxxing" her when they posted a now-deleted photo on the social media site with her home address visible in the background. "Doxxing" is the publication of someone's private information online without their consent.

"I have to assume that @IAmGeorgiaFrost, @hollywstars and @Richard_Energy_ thought doxxing me would intimidate me out of speaking up for womens sex-based rights," Rowling wrote. "They should have reflected on the fact that Ive now received so many death threats I could paper the house with them, and I havent stopped speaking out."

"Perhaps and Im just throwing this out there the best way to prove your movement isnt a threat to women, is to stop stalking, harassing and threatening us," she added.

Stars defended posting the photo and said she deleted the tweet after she received online threats.

"While we stand by the photo, since posting it we have received an overwhelming amount of serious and threatening transphobic messages so have decided to take the photo down," Stars wrote. "Love to our trans siblings."

The disagreement is the latest battle in a war between Rowling and trans activists. Over the last several years, Rowling has been criticized for her controversial views on the trans community, which some have called transphobic.

Seriously, say what you want about Rowling but what does doxxing her accomplish? You know other than trying to get her killed which is fucked up. Yes, so much more fucked up than any comment that has come out of her mouth.

Cool. And in the meantime, TERFs are calling for the eradication of trans people in the UK. You don't bring tea and biscuits to your own genocide.

The doxxing is a cheap failure that could have been avoided.

Also JK Rowling is a shit and a greater threat to trans people than they could ever be to her.

She's retweeted more than a few of the TERFs who have. Maybe not those specific tirades, but enough that the inference can be made when combined with the fact that her pen name for her transphobic mystery novels is Robert Galbraith.

She might not have directly called for their extermination, but she's thrown full support behind laws to strip and deprive them of basic human rights and given support to TERFs who have said utterly heinous shit.

Then she wrote a book where someone pretended to be trans to attack and abuse women, in the middle of her controversy.

Oh yes, because she sure stalks the streets of london, mauling every transgender she finds, before hiding the body. Oh wait.

IMO saying that trans women are scummy men and a serious threat to the rights of actual women is a BIT different than "I think biology and chromosomes exist", but why would you be honest when you agree with her?

I saw a doctored version. They're standing in front of a door and the info on the door is blurred out (in the doctored version), implying address information. They're standing right in front of it. Not pointing to it, but I think it's pretty obvious they wanted people to know where they were.

To me, this is one of those "the intent was still there" situations. It's not like you'd have to squint to see the information. Grayer, certainly, but I stand by it being an optics failure that could have been avoided, in my opinion.

Not that I spend my life trying to avoid optics failures for the sake of right-wingers, but as we all know, they latch on to anything.

There are other anti-trans things you can do besides stabbing people.

You can, for example, use your not inconsiderable influence in your native country to promote anti-trans beliefs and believers, who then in turn provide the stochastic terrorism that speaks to violent people resulting in trans people dying for the crime of existing. Two degrees of separation means one's hands are nice and squeaky clean, doesn't it?
