dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

She is also a major backer of anti-trans campaigning in the UK. Like, people defending that they still are into HP always say "i'm not on twitter, idk what she says on there", but JKR's transphobia isn't about her having nuclear takes online anymore, she is at the point were she pumps money into hate groups going on trial to erode trans rights. Successfully, too, the last two cases she funded first led to trans women no longer being legally recognized as women and then a trans woman being sentenced to 2 years in a man's prison for consensually blowing a guy without telling him she was trans. She's also connected to about every single major transphobe in the UK personally at this point, she's basically the figurehead of the movement there.

She and fellow TERF Graham Linehan have also directly encouraged violence and the invasion of privacy against not just trans people, but anyone a person even suspects might be trans.

Rowling is also a Holocaust denier and has outright denied the fact that trans people were persecuted in Nazi Germany. She is one of the defining reasons myself and other genderqueer people’s lives are being made miserable where I live.

I definitely wouldn't consider Graham Lineham a TERF. He's just a misogynist ghoul who also hates trans people.
