- Опубликовано: 14 апр 2024
- Author JK Rowling has revealed she will “never forgive” Harry Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson after they publicly advocated for transgender rights.
Ms Rowling last week responded to a tweet that suggested Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson were safe from the author's wrathed.
“Not safe, I’m afraid,” Rowling tweeted.
“Celebs who cosied up to a movement intent on eroding women's hard-won rights and who used their platforms to cheer on the transitioning of minors can save their apologies for traumatised detransitioners and vulnerable women reliant on single sex spaces.”
‘To Di For Daily' podcast host Kinsey Schofield joined Sky News host Rita Panahi to discuss the latest on JK Rowling.

Good for her. She owes them NOTHING.
They dont owe that c*** anything. works both ways.
Funnily the same can't be said about the actors. It was HER stories that made them famous and millions.
@@raygalaxy2717 She also got the final word on the casting for the first movie, JK quite literally made their careers.
💯☝ while they, on the other hand would be nothing without her writings and books
But they owe her …….love her she is a beautiful woman…..I identify as a biological woman……..
Thing is, if it wasn't for J. K. Rowling, nobody would know who Daniel Ratcliffe and Emma Twatson are. They owe her everything they have, she doesn't owe them a damn thing.
You are so right! 👏
They know. It's why they hate her....
@@jamesparker1071 They don't hate her though. They just disagree with her on this issue.
But she did not buy their right to hold an opinion.
@@robokill387 look, I found the millionth edgy prick with a dead gaming channel.
I remember at age 14 “borrowing” my brother’s Levi jeans, putting my long hair under a baseball cap, and pretending to be a boy (in the early 1960’s). I longed to be a boy, because of the freedom boys seemed to have. By age 16, you couldn’t have given me a million dollars to change into a boy. I was all girl, and loved it - still do! What if during this vulnerable time, a wise-ass school counselor would have observed and worked behind my parent’s back to secretly transition me and it was irreversible? Holy cow! Thank the heavens for women like JK Rowling who have the power and strength to stand up to the bullying of a vocal few! She is my hero!
yeah you were lucky to have that phase back then ... today you would've been screwed
Same here! I was a total tomboy as a child... thank God I am not growing up in today's world.
Me too, I loved dressing in shorts and jeans and a cap😮 But then a year two years later, still today, I look at a cap especially, like it's a foreign object 😂
Ya, when I started developing, I would wear a leotard under my clothes in order to squish myself flat. I’m so glad this crap wasn’t around when I was hating my developing pubescent body.
EXACTLY!! I thought i was gay from 13-18. All i dated were guys, then i found a great girl and we got married and stayed together for 12 years. After that, i realized i was bi...but like women more for relationships. If i had been given a choice to "change" something when i was 13,14,15,16 etc.....i would have COMPLETELY REGRETTED DOING SO. Why? Because KIDS DO NOT KNOW WHO\WHAT THEY ARE until later. I'm 47, my 17yr old daughter is gay, my 43yr old gf is bi and her 21yr old daughter is bi. We all feel the same way. The majority are being silenced to appease the minority.
If celebrities don’t have a spine, they would say anything just to not get canceled.
She's 100% correct
she is 100% incorrect. hating trans people doesnt make you a hero or cool. trans lives matter. but ur a bigoted pos so i cant expect much from a low life like u
@@AlexM-ht9ff it is not about hate. It is about letting children be children. Get smart or get rolled over.
@@soakupthesunman I agree. Let kids be kids and dont shame them. conservatives love grooming kids and shaming them if theyre lgbtq. trans minors matter as well. you're a hateful pos. i bet you dont even respect people's pronouns. you're evil. i bet you would never defend a trans people. kick rocks. im glad the trans community is winning worldwide.
@@soakupthesunman Of course it's about hate. But the insidious, confused, deeply buried psychological kind. If you going to align yourself with some of the worst kind of people in our human society - fascists - you need to take a good hard look at yourself before you do! And start hearing bad faith arguments for what they actually are! Duplicitous attempts to justify bigotry.
@@soakupthesunman and about protecting women.
It's kinda ironic that the actors who were brave enough to have her back played the villains in the movies.
Brave enough to be the “bad guys” and not afraid of being hated for it
She should do a sequel where the bad guys win
Actress who played Ginny Weasley also backed Rowling.
@@peterbuckley5204She should make a sequel with deleted senses from the Harry Potter movies, where Daniel Radcliffe was constantly drunk. 🤣
@@newera478As did Robbie Coltrane.
Good for her. Their apologies would be meaningless.
As a gay man and a child who was raised by a single mother, I support JK Rowling and real woman.
JK Rowling herself was a single mother at some point in her life...
🥰🥰🥰
@@mrconfusion87 JK Rowling was a single mother, who was battling financially. She sat in a cafe to keep warm as heating her home was too expensive, and wrote the first Harry Potter book. I wonder how many people know this.
And not only did she make a good living for herself, but also for those associated with the products of her amazing imagination. Including this 2 brats.
No one cares if you're gay. Do you see others commenting ''As a straight man'' on these comments? You gay people always like to share your sexuality publicly making everyone around you uncomfortable. Just say you support JK, no need to tell us what you're into in bed.
As a biological real woman, thank you so much!!!!
She made them, they dumped on her for popularity, so bugger 'em.
She still is news worthy, they aren ´t. Says it all
Interestingly enough, of all of the Hairy Pothead stars, the ones who were already famous before appearing in it are the ones not dumping on Rowling and it's the ones who were made famous from appearing in it who are dumping on her for clout.
She made them? What a silly thing to say. Watch the bigots join hands and go after a minority group still struggling for acceptance. Look in a mirror and see what you are making of yourself.
its not going to end well for them, if they think they will be supported by the woke crowd they are mistaken as soon as they have no use for them they will be fergotten.
I checked, he starred as a young David Copperfield before Harry Potter...
Daniel who? Emma who? Names that nobody will remember. But Harry Potter and Hermione Granger will be remembered forever no matter who plays the part. Just don’t let Disney near the franchise.
No kidding and yet these so called stars has not done any significant or even relevant movies after HP 🤓😜😜😜
@@cathiuy5878 absolutely right. They are just trying to be relevant. Maybe they will be in a Disney flop in the future.
already going down and out...as time passes it will be obvious
This is why I loved that Rowling had the forethought to retain certain rights to her works. Rowling knows very well what Disney's agenda is and if she can help it, they won't get anywhere near her franchise.
@@pavmx703 very smart and impressive woman. On top of being an awesome writer.
JK fought for women’s rights, Emma was born with them, and Daniel will never understand. People don’t value what they don’t have to earn. Simple.
I understand the underlying message of your comment,
but I disagree with one part of it. Why will Daniel never understand?
That last line is very well-put
@@victorcoffin2638Because he's a man
I don’t keep up with JKR’s twitter or any of her social media, but if she cares so much about women’s rights then does she also talk about abortion rights in the US? Or the situation in Gaza? Trans women aren’t hurting cis women, but if she’s such a feminist then why haven’t I seen her talk about significantly more important women’s rights issues?
@@k1wishadeVery good point. I’ve never seen Rowling actually speak about women’s rights. She’s obsessed with only trans.
Jo was on welfare with a little girl when she wrote the first book, which she wrote mainly in a pub, rocking her child in the stroller because she had no room to write in her government housing flat. HP was turned down countless times for publication until it was finally accepted. Jo went through horrible depression, which is where she got the idea for Dementors. JKR lived a tough life and it made her into a smart lady with no time to suffer little fools like Emma and Danny.
God can fix them
Thanks Lord for bible study class

The kids were mildly entertaining when they pretended to be baby-wizards... then they opened their mouths in the real world and I couldn't stop paying attention to them fast enough. As adults in real life they are entirely uninteresting and annoying.
Absolutely correct.. they were adorable as kids, but hubris is all over when you hear them speak.
@@ruvini9889 I never much liked the series.

THATS WHAT.
Trans isnt a mental health disorder. Actual medical professionals support it.
@@julienperonne2347 preying on innocence. Having kids transition too young before they can make decisions for themselves. Its a grave mistake.
Daniel and Emma decided to get into a war of words with one of the most beloved and accomplished authors in the world. Did they think J.K. would be at a loss for words in the debate? Their arrogance, lack of gratitude & idiotic behavior is breathtaking.
People will always remember Ms. Rowling, her name is up there with Tolkien and Lewis. Radcliffe and Watson will fade into obscurity.
Lol… i had to look up Lewis…. I suppose obscurity is subjective.
@@user-wj5sc4iz6c People of a certain age range would most likely have read some CS Lewis growing up!

@@user-wj5sc4iz6c Obscurity is definitely subjective, but anyone in the know how of such novels and all will definitely have heard of these three. Ofc, if you haven't really been in novels and such, you might not know those.
So its relative, but in their field, they're totally well known.
@@fenris4760 if i haven’t been into novels and such… lol… i started reading enid Blyton mysteries and biggles, by W E Johns… do you remember those great authors of children’s books?… of course, these days, most of my voracious reading is historical fiction, verses children’s action, mystery or fantasy… my comments are based on 50 years of reading, less of tv, and my memory of such things… Elizabeth Taylor… child actor… no name author…. Etc etc etc…. But sure, who played the tin man?.. and who wrote the wizard of Oz. Anyway… in general, my observation runs like this… character… actor… author, until an actors fame eclipse his childhood… eg… one of this gens greatest action stars, tom cruise. Who wrote “risky business” and what was the characters name?
JKR ROCKS. She is a modern heroine, a role model and a woman history will remember
I hope for the good she's done, and the wonder she gave us all... the loud moronic new fad i hope falls off fast and sudden
Let's not forget she was a radical feminist before. It's pure coincidence she ended up on the right side of this.
@@jm2270 Yes, she woke up. It’s a good thing.
Could not say it better
@@jm2270 Or maybe a sign or her ability to change her mind and adept. Both part of intelligence
Ratcliffe and whatson would be absolute nobodies if not for Rowling
Ratcliffe is actually better than Radcliffe…
Pretty soon they will be nobodies again.
Lol…. Both have prestigious pedigrees… Watson is a dragon school alumni… Radcliffe is the son of a BBC casting director, with both parents having been child actors…. These two people were born to succeed… or at least born with the tools to achieve success laid at their feet, with or without Rowling… These two still very young people are clearly success stories, and were most likely always going to be success stories.. At best that success came earlier than expected… but neither stars need share Rowlings prejudices , and as these stars are linked to Rowling, its appropriate that they be given the opportunity to distance themselves from her views, as other stars are doing.
@@user-wj5sc4iz6c. Lol. Sorry, but there is too much competition and having “golden roles” like Harry and Hermione made ALL THEIR DIFFERENCE. We wouldn’t know their names because they aren’t, in fact, exceptional actors. Not a single one of their movies afterwards do most ppl even know. There are plenty of “royalty” Hollyweird kids that can act are are pretty unknown. It helps, but it’s definitely no guarantee, like you claim. Just G00gle “famous stars with failed actor children”, or some such query. You’ll get tired of reading before you reach 30% of it.
I would be incapable of dumping on the person who helped me reach the dream of not needing to work for a living if I didn't want to.
What’s sad is that literally every single person is uncomfortable in their body as a kid. Then you grow up & learn to love yourself. It’s sick to see this taken advantage of.
There's no doubt insecurity about a lot issues lessens as we grow up
But not everyone gets out of their desire to transition.
I wasnt. I never once thought i was was anything other than a female.
I wasnt. I never once thought i was anything other than a female
I enjoyed every single milestones growing up. All this madness is completely unrelatable and befuddling. I learned from a very early age the difference between reality and fiction.
The problem is there's a subset of kids that will commit suicide. That's why self affirming care is important
@@awtodor what is being affirmed?
They didn't have to agree with her, they just needed to have common courtesy and consideration for someone they owe their existence as actors to.
Irrespective of the validity or invalidity of their opinions on the trans question, does the fact that she gave those actors a lifetime chance mean they have to ask her permission before they air their personal opinions?
By the way, the only reason celebrity opinions are important is due to their ability to apply pressure on governments and big corporations.
@@abdul-kabiralegbe5660 if you actually like someone or feel a semblance of gratitude to them wouldn't you have a personal conversation with them before denouncing them in public?
@@deepdivin Yes that's correct. But I was referring to them having to run their opinions on trans people (or anything other than JK) by her before they speak publicly about it.

The biggest tragedy of 'transitioning' is that it's irreversible.. and in most cases could be navigated by understanding that sexual confusion in the teen years is a normal part of growing up..
all had it in teenager time. It belongs to being to adult.
I hate how all the supporters just mention how safe are the surgeries but they don't mention the life changing consequences like putting something inside your fake vagina on daily basis so it doesn't get close or all the consequences of hormone treatments
You are absolutely spot on. I remember at age 14 “borrowing” my brother’s Levi jeans, putting my long hair under a baseball cap, and pretending to be a boy (in the early 1960’s).

When I was a child, I envied the freedom that boys had (e.g. can look messy, be noisy, untidy & naughty & play with toy cars & take off shirt in hot weather etc.) & I remember saying to several people I wished I was a boy & wanted to be called by a boy's name & they humoured me, occasionally & teasingly calling me that name etc. A few years later, I was happy to be a girl!! I'm so grateful those were more sensible times & nobody tried to tell me I should transition or take hormones etc.!! That's child abuse! 😢
Just wow! Your brave honesty is refreshing 🎉@@noracharles80
Well, JK wrote Hermione Granger. Emma was just playing a role.
JK identifies as a woman. A strong independent brave woman. Thank you, thank you, you are a great role model for my daughter.
JK Rowling does not identify as a woman. She IS a WOMAN.
she does NOT "identify" herself as a woman, she IS a woman.
100% on Jo Rowling’s side
She earned my complete respect not for her books but for her integrity and moral stand
Same!!
Fair and 100% correct statement. Both Watson and Radcliffe are prime examples of a generation that simply rely on social media for "education" and emojis.
It's sad how ungrateful some people can be after they reach a level of stardom.
Emma Watscon is an awful "actress" and she owes everything to JK Rowling. As do ALL those young HP actors.
Truly dreadful. I can't believe she is the best they could find. She's very lucky to have made so much money from a 'career' that she is so mediocre in. For some reason she thinks that gives her a platform to lecture the rest of us on how virtuous she is. If only we could be more like her, imagine how great the world would be............🙄🙄
Have you seen her in the absolutely bs advert for Prada. Cringe .. ughh
Emma Watson is an insufferable virtue signaller, preaching from her ivory tower.
She is an awful person too.
In an essay Emma Watson thanked her coven. That says it all. She’s cuckoo.
Bravo Evanna Lynch and Jason Isaacs (Luna and Lucius!) for standing with J.K !!! 👏👏👏
evanna is the best actor in the franchise
And the great Ralph Fiennes.
Bellatrix Helena Bonham Carter
The original Dumbledore in the first two movies and Ralph Fiennes and Gary Oldman … there actually many great actors in Harry Potter franchises … but the main trio aren’t part of those
I always loved Luna Lovegood more than any other female in the Harry Potter franchise anyway and now I love Evanna Lynch.

For Ms Rowling to be demonised for what the silent majority think is a sad statement about our current society. People need to understand there is a hard reality to life and just wishing you are a prince and princess does not make you one. Hard work and Originality are what make people special. Not entitlement, or randomness. Thank you Ms Rowling for providing so much joy in this world and for standing up for the truth when so many stay quiet.
stop being silent and afraid. speak up.
Well said.
the majority needs to speak up! we need to speak up for our women. for our children! enough is enough! These aberrants need to be shoved back to the closets where they came from and just shut up and leave the rest of us alone.
It's anything but a "silent" majority. It might well be a majority, but you archaic, neanderthal oafs are constantly whining and blubbing about trans people's rights and how they shouldn't be allowed them. You're not silent... not at all, and i'm bored of hearing you gripe about shit that affects you not one iota. Live and let live. The "silent majority" on any topic are usually the loudest, gobbiest throwbacks imaginable. They play the oppressed victim because on occasion, they get called out for their odious opinions, and they would rather go unchallenged.
The tactic of the hidden hand is to remove (cancel) normal public expression against this stuff. That is why they are so obsessed with "reach" (viewers) and "hate speech" (speech control). Normal people are against all of this stuff but it seems like this fake new politics is being forced on us by buying off people in positions of power in business and politics, using a corrupt Media
I'm 16, and I was a tomboy when i was 5-13.
I tried wearing boys's underwear when I was 5-6,
vowed to never be girly again when I was 7,
and acted like a boy and only did things boys's would do at ages 8-12.
At 12, I tried looking like a boy---Giving myself masculine hairstyles and dressing like a boy.
When I was 13, I considered transitioning.
14 years old and I was getting ready to ask my parents to transition.
At 15, I was glad I didn't transition, because I grew out of that phase.
I'm 16 now and sometimes I'm a tomboy, other times I'm a girly girl and I'm GLAD as HELL I didn't transition.
Adults wanting kids to transition is DANGEROUS, because kids at some point will go through a "Gender Dilemma" phase, but grow out of it eventually,
And by the time they transition, a few years after they'll grow out of the Delimma and regret transitioning.
This message is to all the transgenders:
_Years from now, you'll regret transitioning. You'll want to go back to your original gender. But the damage has been done._
And: _Don't expect us to accept you for who you ARE, when you couldn't accept yourself for who you WERE._
No. Some transgenders do not regret transitioning. Don’t lump everyone onto the same side.
@@wanted-deadoralive204 Wait until those transgenders turn 60. They'll regret it.
On top of that, transitioning can give you colon cancer, and many other kinds of cancers, which is why most transgenders live until, like, 60, and if they're lucky, 70.

FACTS
“Children hurt by transitioning” Where?
IT IS AMAZING HOW MANY PEOPLE SPEAK OUT AGAINST JK ROWLING WITHOUT A CLUE ABOUT WHAT SHE ACTUALLY SAID. It's usually "I heard she said something transphobic so she's bad". She has nothing against trans people living however they want, but wants to protect women and childrens rights and safety. I agree and support her 100%!
JK Rowling is defending real women, and not backing down, which is admirable in my book 👍🏼
She has shown strength .....enormous strength in an industry known for gang ups. A strong woman, I admire her unwavering stance even when she was bullied.
Those youngsters would learn from her. I support her stance.
Was funny when she dared the Scottish police to come and arrest her . They looked at her investments and charities and backed down immediately because she is richer than Scotland and also has a better legal team 😉
@@user-xj8yl2dh4p funny you😁

JKR is a hero. If it wasn't for her, most of these child actors would never have got acting roles.
And most will never work again in film or tv. It's a tough life.
Actors? Really?
When i was a kid we called it playing pretends.
They will always be known as the Harry Potter actors and nothing more.
Rowling is a beautiful soul, through and through. She's brilliant, aware, and with courageous conviction for all that's right and decent. She has a lot more 'moxie' than most men politicians in our western world. Great woman!
The Monsters who want to run experiments on kids should apologize….then be sent directly to jail.
Only after they are experimented on!
Anyone who try to assist a vulnerable child in transitioning (and this would include parents that are so twisted and emotionally warped), who’s young brains are not mature enough to consent, should be arrested for abuse. If any teacher or councilor is involved in trying to transition a child, not their own, should be sued along with the school district, for millions of dollars. Money will slow their sick interference. What someone wants to do with their bodies after the age of 18, is their own personal business.
Everyone who pushes confused children into the trans medical industry should go to prison!
They can choose on their own when they’re older not force this idea in their heads. Not their place anyway.

I went through the "boy" phase when I was little. I was crying at age 5 when my mom wanted to put a dress on me and threw a tantrum for a week because I didn't wanted lacquered shoes and flowers on my socks, I just wanted to be a boy playing with the other boys till late. I even went on to train and did karate and culturism at an agonistic level with a bunch of other boys hidden in a basement, until I got caught and punished to not leave my home for a month... By the age 14 I discovered suddenly I was a beautiful girl and boys were looking at me differently, I put on my first dress and high heels, got my makeup done and did my own eyebrows and nails, which made every boy in town turn around to look at me. I still remember that feeling. I also had my first date around same age. I never ever wanted to be a boy again, I felt just extremely flattered of my femininity and beauty. Would have been a disgrace for me to live in times like these.
People were pretty quick to blame her and even try to remove her name from the Harry Potter series. I like how everyone conveniently seems to forget she was demonized for years for speaking the truth.
She’s still supporting women, even if they’re trans
Never read a single page and ever watched a minute of her work - I'll support her wholeheartedly in this!!!!
I only read a couple of her early books and took my young son to see the early Harry Potter films. It's not really my thing to be quite honest with you.
However, I swore that I will buy one of her later, more serious books as a symbol of my solidarity, and I stand by that... Just as I will stand by my word to support the political party that comes forth to repeal this horrible Hate Law.
This law has already been used to intimidate innocent people including a 74 year old lady who has done nothing wrong other than report a neighbour for vandalising plants in her own garden. Meanwhile, the police have just stuck an answerphone message on their line to reply to anyone who tries to report the unelected instigator of this law for clear and indisputable racism against white people.
How's that for one rule for them, another rule for us, eh?
Same.
Me too. Never liked the Potter world but i stand with her. ❤
I thought I was the only person in the world who had never read or watched any of her work! It just wasn't my thing BUT I stand with her on this issue! My grandmother told me years ago that "anything worth having is worth waiting for." WHY can't we offer support and counseling to gender confused kids while asking them to wait until the age of majority to transition (IF they still want to)? We don't allow 12 year olds to drive or vote. We don't allow children to participate in dangerous sports like skydiving without parental consent. 20 years from now, we are going to look back 9n this time in history and shake our heads in disbelief.
I support her, but I don't like her work too much. I think it's full of disturbing symbols. Maybe it wasn't intentional, I don't know.
Of all the people who criticized her I've spoken to, when I asked, not one single one knew what she actually said.
Misinformation abounds due to hating… above a commenter stated that he was “dumbfounded” to learn that the actors had demanded she (rowling) be banned from a potter reunion… he used too many letters and should have stuck with dumb… a simple search shows Rowling being interviewed and saying she was invited but declined…. A very simple search.
Let's not bring Actual Facts and Context into this.
Unfortunately, that's how people usually go about it when they are against someone/cancelling someone. They'll give the very bare minimum but make sure to highlight the trigger words so it works in their favour. So, it would be like, "she's transphobic" with no other info. And unfortunately, many people don't care to look things up for themselves, so they'll also just run with that with no other context.
@@cinny_ I've never met one who said this who knew what she actually said.
@@brandonflorida1092 I believe that. It happens too often sadly.
Her position never changed; the kids did.
100 % behind JKR … the world has gone mad.
Those spoiled brats seem to have forgotten that if JK Rowling hadn't written the Harry Potter series, they wouldn't be anywhere as well off as they are now. I was dumbfounded when I'd read that they demanded she be banned from the 20th anniversary celebration of Harry Potter. Do they think those books just appeared out of thin air just for them?
total boners!
When you read she be banned… where did you learn to read?…. “Why didn t J.K. Rowling attend the reunion?
However, in a Saturday interview with Graham Norton on Virgin Radio UK, Rowling claims that her absence from “Return to Hogwarts” was her choice. “I wasn't, actually,” Rowling said, after Norton asserted that she was “excluded” from the reunion special. “I was asked to be on that. I decided I didn't want to do it.”….. re read the last two lines and check your reading comprehension skills.
No need to be insulting. Check your manners.
@@roseriker3311just check your facts, or is that 'insulting' too?
Funny how the actors who played villains are actually better people than the "heroes"
Not to mention, more humble
Villains and heroes are merely a matter of perspective.
Not really but it doesn't surprise me you can't tell the difference@@helenetrstrup4817
@@helenetrstrup4817 This is a solid quote, this should be like in a history book or something. Would you mind me using this in my next argument because this right here sounds philosophical 😮
@@ugochukwumgbemene3869 Go right ahead.
I'm with JK Rowling 100 %! After how Daniel took it upon himself to try to apologize for her a few years ago for her stance against underage transitioning & canceling woman, that he doesn't deserve any of JK Rowlings acknowledgements.
JK should write another Potter book where they’re all outed as frauds.
This is such a contradictory ideology. On the one hand, how one feels is more important than ones physiological biology at birth. The mind/feelings are placed on a pedestal and the physiological body is seen as irrelevant. On the other hand, the physiological body becomes so important to this group in their identity that it must be manipulated and surgically altered.
Like, they were not born with any medical anomaly.
But they "just know" that the hormone flowing in their body is "wrong" and need to be replaced.
That you feel this is a contradiction shows that you have never engaged with these ideas in a serious manner. Perhaps because you feel they are beneath you. Try listening to a trans person's perspective if you're actually curious what the resolution to this seeming contradiction is
Good point
you arent an expert in this. being trans is biological and stems from brain development. you're a d*** f***. you arent an expert. im glad it's best to trust the majority of medical physicians. get c****er.
@@AhrkFinTeyYou are the type of individual that immediately puts down and labels anyone that questions this area, highlights contradictions in the ideology and disagrees with the ideology as unintelligent (including those in the medical field that disagree), not willing to research the topic, uncaring and seeing the individual who suffers from dysphoria as less than etc, etc, etc. It is you who is not prepared to hear the concerns of those who do not support the ideology. Not supporting the ideology does not equate to not having concern for those that suffer from dysphoria.
Helena Bonham-Carter spoke out against it as well 🙏🏻
They Owed Her, for the opportunity to play the parts Rowling wrote. Who were these unknowns??? Did they speak to her or find out what Rowling was fighting for??? Went along with the Virtue Signalling showing No loyalty to anything or anyone. Pathetic.
😳😲☹️😟🤯🤮🤮🤮🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
The real criticism should be directed toward the silent majority. If they spoke out this nonsense would be quickly eradicated, JK should never feel she stands alone.
A great deal of why the majority seems to silent is that the media and Hollywood dreck suppress anything positive about conservatism and shout lies about the constant failure of liberal policies.
The majority of people actually support transgender people, and there are many polls and statistics that prove this. And they should be blasted for being involved in the persecution of a group of people just because they’re different. Transphobes are no better than racists, in my book
Bravo to Ms. Rowling. 👏💐👍💐
Male and female. People forget ROSA PARKS wasn't JUST a person of color, she was a WOMEN.
No they don't. Silly person.
J.K Rowling is 100% correct, factually.
Go JK!
100 points taken away from Gryffindor!
For what?
@@piouspigeon9327🤦🏼♀️

@Ioannis.Stf.1996 Yeah, too bad they rejected you. You were perfect for them.
Go J.K. , you have the integrity, they do not.
How Emma and Hermione so far apart. One smart the other a moron.
100% behind JKR. Just because you feel offended, does not make you right!
Just because she made a billion dollars doesn't make her right either.
She's not saying anything thousands of conservative pundits weren't saying before her.
She was losing relevance in the news cycle from having nothing good to follow her HP books, so she decided to start trans rage bait to keep her name in the news.
Stand with J.K Rowling! 💯💯💯A voice of reason in a crazy world. Such strength when been bullied and attacked, what a woman! RESPECT. 👏
You know what J.K owes to them? Nothing. You know what they owe her? Everything they had. The fame, the success, the money, ALL OF IT. They grew up and become part of this toxic culture of young actors who raether "woke things up", instead of acting. By the way, JK is a genious writer.
I’m with JKR on this.
How dare those smug, bratty, entitled "actors" who would be NOTHING without Jk Rowling, criticize her personal views. Emma Watson is nauseating in her behavior, and Daniel Radcliff is ridiculous. Good for JK, she didn't back down to the cyber bullying from childish, ignorant puppets.
I understand your point of view, but please keep in mind that every individual holds the right to criticise another person. If the criticism is justified or not if a whole other discussion, but fundamentally speaking everybody has the right to criticise.
This is why you never transfer affection for a character to the actor. You rarely ever get to know their real personality or real opinions. I respect many actors for their work. I don't make the mistake of liking any based on their roles or on interviews. Like politicians, an actor's career depends on being someone else, convincingly. We never see the real person most of the time, and when we do, we find all too iften they have useful knowledge the depth of a puddle in a parking lot. A few are genuinely intelligent but have little notable life experience as someone without wealth and privilege.
Reminder: Dont match words with Rowling in a pissing match.
Someday these actors will be forgotten but JK will be known forever in the classics section of every library in the world along the likes of Jane Austin , Charles Dickens etc
J.K. has always displayed in her writings an outstanding and almost heroic effort to represent all people as equal, whether it be the capacity to be equally good, equally bad and if "bad" equally redeemable. Almost no cultural taboo went unrecognized in her writings and never was there a time in which any taboo mentioned took a front seat. In fact often like in the case of Snape where acting as Harry's secret guardian, the prejudices leveled against him often led the reader to a "shame on you for your assumptions." mentality. Dumbledore was revealed to be gay, but the brilliance of how it was presented led to nothing more than a, "Oh so that makes more sense now." moment. His integrity, intelligence, humor and character remained the same throughout the reveal process.
That is what "equality" looks like.
Those who wish to remove the rights of one group to elevate their own and live by separate standards.
That would be "inequality."
To Ms. Rowling, thank you for standing up for equality for all. To those who cannot see it, have no worries, if this brave woman can be attacked after what she's contributed, someone will be after your rights soon enough as well.
Incredible gesture/acknowledgement of JK Rowling's human worth in regards to this situation.
I really hate when haters argue Dumbledore's gay doesnt even add to the story cuz JK never wrote it, just piggyback on LGBTQ 😂 i hate it when haters feel that being Gay should be your personality or your Deal like you are special because of it smh
@@Peachu_n_Goma_Home I mean, that was my point as I'm not a hater. I pointed out that J.K. made Dumbledore a heroic inspiring character, his private preferences, meaning nothing and that people should be measured by their character. She's being "attacked" as she's stood up for "Women's " identity and rights, because another group feels attacked by an action of self affirmation. I don't know if that was what your response meant as it was a little unclear, but wanted to clarify my own position.
They would be nothing without that Harry Potter role. The ingratitude.
Only if emma was capable of understanding that statement. 😂😂😂
Bro, she's delusional to think they owe her anything. They have the right to their views
Being prudent about surgery is a radical position?
No different than a child doing something terrible to their parents. 😢. Shameful
Why can't we be LOUDER and back these people like Rowling up!
She gave them a career and made them rich. Don’t bite the hand that feeds you
Did she? I mean really? Sure, she kick started their careers, no doubt… but then, many child actors flame out (home alone), so she could just as well have destroyed their career path, but for the actors own abilities and choices.
Emma Watson is an “old dragon”, meaning she attended the “dragon school” one of the most prestigious schools in England, who’s alumni is full of Sirs and Dames and actors, writers, composers, poets, politicians… right there is a child with every opportunity to succeed laid bare at her feet, whatever career she chose was hers to have
Meanwhile… Radcliffes mother was a casting agent for the BBC, where Radcliffe first appeared… and both his parents were also child actors.. and his education was outstanding (top private schools before home tutoring… A grades), as well… his mum was a casting agent! If ever a child was going to be cast in a movie, it was young Daniel… Rowling or no Rowling.
@@user-wj5sc4iz6cyeah yeah but never the same status they achieved because of JK’s Harry Potter. Cope harder
@@WangGolden remind me…. Who were the actors that brought the characters alive and into the hearts of so many… thats right… Radcliffe…. What the children’s careers might have been, without having done 8 movies as child actors, or those 8 movies as child actors, or simply 8 high rating movies as child actors, you don’t know…. Similarly, if potter were a dud actor, there may not have been a potter two…. You may have an oriental sounding name, wang, but i don’t believe in crystal balls and bull-sheet. There was a beneficial relationship, then Rowling became more outspoken about her beliefs, and stars are now (not just the children) deserting her nights shy.
horrible for them to strike out at her like that in public...pathetic really...and ungrateful, all they had to do was say nothing and live by their own convictions
Frankly they ALL need to keep their opinions to themselves. And NO ONE should be telling ANYONE what opinion to have.
She owes those 2 brats nothing.She gave them everything, and they spit in her face.
In a world of deceit, speaking the truth is a revolutionary act
I thought Wattson was a feminist, and kind of a hardcore one...? At least I remember her fighting for women and holding speeches for women's rights before. Didn't think she was gonna publicly go against women now, but I guess that's happening?
How is she publicly going against woman?
Why doesn't she write a book mocking them?
