Wow, the PDF was scrubbed thoroughly from the net. archive.is doesn't have it (just a screenshot of the first page), archive.org has removed it, ...
Has anyone managed to find the original PDF elsewhere?
the document was named
"Report_-_A_growing_threat__the_anti-rights_movement_in_the_UK_July_2026.pdf"
More info:
Around the same time, Sex Matters, one of the organisations identified in the report, announced publicly that it had challenged Amnestyβs publication and suggested that, had the report remained online, it would have brought defamation proceedings. Amnesty has not said whether its review is connected to that correspondence.
Thanks for the PDF, looks like it's my RPi seedbox's time to shine!
EDIT: Here's the magnet link for anyone interested :3, it's not like UK lawsuits have any effect here(unless Italy has a secret treaty with the MI6 or some shit). Anyone can help me seed?

What a bunch of cowards.
They talk about human rights and post evidently empty shit like βWe exist so that a world where everyone can live freely, fairly and with dignity is possibleβ, but fold like a wet napkin when Rowling threatens legal action.
Good to know that we canβt rely on AMNESTY to protect basic human rights anymore.
Fucking hell, we are absolutely fucked, arenβt we?
When Amnesty reported on Ukraine but stayed silent over what Russia was doing in the special military operation, they already lost a lot of credibility.
A tangible example of where the money people spend on harry potter goes.
Its why I am absoutely disgusted by anyone who spends money on it.
people are still defending her, because they cant let go off the HP franchise.

Holy shit. Thatβs dark.
Let them know (politely) how cowardly they are, why you won't support them, and why you'll tell everyone you know not to support them: https://www.amnesty.org/en/about-us/contact/
I understand being upset with AMNESTY, but having people pull support is exactly what JK Rowling's goal is. This call to action is a house dividing against itself.
No JKs goal was to get Amnesty to pull support for trans people, which she succeeded at.
Now itβs our turn to use our voices and throw our weight at Amnesty to do the right thing.
If Amnesty is incapable or unwilling to care, it must fall.

Why support an organisation that won't support us? That's just pointless. They've made their position clear: They don't care about us enough to stand by us.
What they should have done is take up the fight and start a fundraiser if needed. Instead they decided to be useless cowards and run away.
The idea is to put pressure on them in hopes they'll do the right thing, and if not (as is most likely), then put your support towards someone who will, instead.

Most of the people who enabled the Holocaust did so by convincing themselves what they were doing was for the greater good.
The ordinary German police officers who did most of the actual grunt work of rounding people up? Those who didn't actively support it probably told themselves, "I'm just enforcing the law. I may not agree with it, but I can't judge the law. And if I don't follow orders, I'll lose my job. Then I won't be able to do any good at all in the community, including arresting actual thieves and killers."
The university professor that handed a list of Jewish students to the Gestapo? "I don't support this. I have nothing against Jewish people. But if I don't do this, I'll lose my job, and then I won't be able to help any students at all."
Sure, the worst crimes of the Holocaust were carried out by true monsters that fully supported it. But the vast majority of the actual work was carried out by people "just following orders." And I'm sure they told themselves all sorts of stories about how they were picking the least evil or destructive path.
There's a reason in On Tyranny, the first rule is Don't Comply in Advance. Authoritarians can accomplish some of their goals through direct state power, but most of their authority is just given to them by cowards not wanting a fight. Look at Trump's attempts targeting the healthcare of minors. He issued a completely illegal executive order trying to ban minors from receiving trans healthcare. He has absolutely no authority to do so. Those hospitals that have fought back have won easily in court. But a lot of hospital administrators, even those in blue states, are craven cowards. We saw a lot of hospitals in blue states complying with this illegal order rather than put up a fight.
What Amnesty should have done is use this as a fundraising opportunity. Do you have any idea what kind of funding and publicity they could have achieved if they had stood up to the witch? Sure she's a billionaire, but Amnesty is not some small operation on a ragtag budget. They have 2500 employees and a budget in the hundreds of millions. They have the money to hire lawyers. And they could easily have used the fight as a massive fundraising opportunity. The ads write themselves. "We stand for the rights of even the most vilified people!"
Instead they chose the path of cowardice. They've damned themselves.

What i dont get is how can she be as rich as she is, with as much inherent admiration, adoration and respect that comes with how she got that rich, and this is how she chooses to spend life?
Fucks sake you could live in Disneyland microdosing LSD while everyone who sees you is absolutely thrilled just to be near you.
With such options she selected hatred.
Why bother?
We can't know for sure, and I won't definitively say it or use male pronouns for her. But a lot of her past comments hint that she may actually be a repping trans guy. Hell, some of the broader themes of Harry Potter are trans-coded. It would explain a lot. This feels personal to her.
And at this point, if she really is a repping trans guy, could she even come out and transition? It's not like she would be welcome in the trans community. You can't do that much harm to a group, even while secretly a member of that group, and expect to be accepted by them. And she would in turn lose all her connections among the TERF crowd.
It's not the first time I've heard that idea. I recall a comment once in which it was claimed that JKR said that if she were a teenager in the present time, she would probably have transitioned. Unfortunately I could not find any source for that claim, but given just how insane she's been on the matter, I wouldn't be surprised if there was something going on there. Same for Linehan, honestly.
Personally I would forgive her, IF that turned out to be true, AND she made a public apology for everything awful she ever said, AND threw her financial weight behind actually fighting for trans rights, AND opened a school or something specifically for disadvantaged trans kids, and kept doing such things to the point that it actually made a positive impact, then I would say she had redeemed herself.
But I'm not holding my breath for even one picosecond, thinking that it would actually happen.
What I remember is an interview where she said "I should have been born a boy" or something to that extent.
It is all too easy to see how you can fall into the TERF mindset as a transmasc in denial because it probably makes about as little sense to her why anyone would want to be a woman as it makes to me why anyone would want to be a man, therefore anyone who wants to transition to a woman must have ulterior motives. But it really shouldn't be a high ask to have a modicum of empathy to realize other people just feel different lol

Harry Potter isnβt good enough to continue supporting this person
Even if it was the best series ever written I still wouldn't support She Who Must Not Be Paid.

It used to be illegal to do that sort of thing
I had no idea this had happened. And reading about it now I'm mostly just feeling disgust and disappointment.
Rowling herself has always disgusted me since showing her true colours. Fuck, I actually bought her books, back in the days when the Harry potter series was still unfinished. I feel strangely ashamed of spending that money, even though we didn't then know the nastiness she was hiding. Feels kinda like I gave cash to a homeless person who used it to buy a knife that stabbed someone. My money supported her hate, it's an ugly feeling.
Disappointment with amnesty. Why couldn't they stand firm? She's a fuckin bigot and should absolutely be called out for it. In fact, she's not just a casual bigot, like one of those people you work with who sometimes comes out with an uncomfortable comment, but when you challenge them they're maybe kind of willing to say they don't really mean it, whatever. Rowling is a committed, evangelical bigot. She has a platform and a shit load of money and she uses it to spread hate.
If humanity manages to become properly civilised one day, her name will be remembered as one of the people who held us back.
She's exactly the type of person Amnesty should stand firm against. And instead they bend over. Probably on the advice of their lawyers, whatever, it's not good enough. If they ended up in court over this, how many of us would have donated towards their legal costs? Me, for one, and hopefully a whole lot of us.
I'm not gay, I'm not trans, so I've never had to deal with that discrimination, the aggression, the angry incomprehension. Never had to feel alone and hated by the world. Fuck sake, these people have enough shit to deal with already - to want to add to that, to encourage the mob to do the same, that's a special level of nasty. I don't want to use the word lightly, but I think it's not unusual to say evil.
And Amnesty, who should be standing firm for people who need someone to lean on, they buckle. They back away and they fuckin apologise.
So yeah, disgust and disappointment.
Sorry, that turned into a rant.
TL;DR : disgust and disappointment!

I hope one of the bigots she has empowered mistakes her for a trans woman and follows her into a restroom.
That drawing of Rowling is not nearly hideous enough if the aim is to portrait her character
What a fucking waste.
Never wanted to look into it, now I had to scroll her Twitter to see that response of her is genuine, now I am mentally unstable.
Disclaimer: it might be the Twitter experience all in all, I usually do not set foot in that realm.
Thanks JK Rowling.
OF COURSE all the press support she gets is from the Telegraph, aka the Daily Telegraph, paper owned by Axel Springer Konzern, which gives its best award to Peter fucking Thiel.

Back when she was something, Rowling's attention to human rights inspired me to do better, and even to try and start a career working with human rights NGOs.
It's insane to me how she's come right around and is now attacking what she once stood for, and using the might of her wealth to do it (something she also used to despise).

I rarely wish bad things happening to people, but JK Rowling became one of them.
shes essentially like a right wing christian group/think tank providing legal expertise for free for anyone wanting to challenge pro-lgbtq+, or anything evangelicals dont like legislation in the states. SEE KIM DAVIS, shes being bankrolled by so many groups.
