When I see that J.K. Rowling is trending, I generally assume that she’s said something particularly “woke,” as she is often wont to do. Perhaps a restatement of her support for abortion and the funding of feticide overseas, or another snarky comment about President Donald Trump, or maybe even another revelation concerning the sexuality of one of her famous fictional Harry Potter characters.
But today, to my surprise, it appears that J.K. Rowling has also walked into the tolerance buzz saw, and trans activists are setting “woke” Twitter ablaze with accusations that Rowling is a trans-exclusionary radical feminist (TERF).
One thought on “J.K. Rowling backed a woman fired for saying people couldn’t switch sexes–and the transgender movement is coming for her”

JK Rowling may back down, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she rides it out. I know 99% of celebrities surrender to the outrage mob, but this seems different. JK Rowling doesn’t come across as the kind of person that apologizes for what she believes, she is almost Trumpian in that respect. Moreover, she is so rich and her books are so popular that she could come out as a pro-life, pro-Trump, pro-Brexit, pro-gun, anti-climate alarmism Christian and still not face any serious problems.
