It was no April Fool’s joke.
Harry Potter author-turned culture warrior J.K. Rowling kicked off the month with an 11-tweet social media thread in which she argued 10 transgender women were men — and dared Scottish police to arrest her.
Rowling’s intervention came as a controversial new Scottish government law, aimed at protecting minority groups from hate crimes, took effect. And it landed amid a fierce debate over both the legal status of transgender people in Scotland and over what actually constitutes a hate crime.
Already the law has generated far more international buzz than is normal for legislation passed by a small nation’s devolved parliament.
As a left-leaning feminist, why would she like Trump? Whatever your opinions of her, even her enemies call her a TERF; RF stands for Radical Feminist. Hardly Trump’s primary demographic.
I don’t know shit about Rowling yet alone have an opinion about her. I just saw that she posts transphobic shit and clicked on her profile to find that she also posts A LOT about Trump.
So you’re comfortable being vocally opinionated about topics you admittedly have next to no knowledge about. Seems like you yourself might have something in common with the average Trump voter.
What they said was:
I wouldn’t call that “being vocally opinionated about topics you admittedly have next to no knowledge about.” They’re just saying they noticed something and found it interesting.
She’s actially a Feminist Aligned Radical Transphobe. She only uses her feminism to disparage trans people
A FART?
I’d take it one step further; Feminist Appropriating Radical Transphobe
Yes, obviously her evil plan was to pose as a feminist since her youth just to enable a devious undercover attack on trans people late in life. A good thing so many people online are seeing through this malicious disguise.
No True Scotsman and all that.

“Nazi” is short for National Socialism, yes, as in social ownership of the means of production in service of the national state. Don’t confuse the lazy modern usage of the term “socialism” for the actual historical definition.
And the whole point OP was making is Rowling and Trump are not working together. In fact, they take diametrically opposed stances on most, if not all, issues. And even if you see the end result as equal, they do not agree on this issue either. Their motivations are very different.

So, you like to make “guilt by association” arguments and guess at hidden motives instead of countering someone’s actual arguments. Did JK Rowling speak at a Heritage foundation event? Does her views generally align with the Heritage foundation, do you find?
