Time for the Trans to get mad again and try and cancel her. How about instead just ignore her and ignore your precious little Harry Potter.

I gave up on the franchise immediately after she announced that Harry is bi and will have an affair with Ron a couple decades after DH. I think it is pretty clear that she wants to torpedo it all at this point by pissing off everyone by being as obnoxious as possible all around.
And just to be clear, I thought the Dumbledore being gay thing was kind of funny but didn't really care. It was plausible and inoffensive. On the other hand, the story is told in third person omniscient from Harry's perspective, and there was never a hint of him liking dudes. And banging his wife's brother and the husband of one of his best friends. . .

I support Rowling's continual trek to sanity.
This is how it always starts. They push too far, and someone that wholeheartedly supports them, offers a differing opinion, which they immediately dogpile, complete with personal insults, pushing that person into eventually reconsidering their entire belief system.
The left is that jam-a-stick-in-your-own-bicycle-wheel meme, perpetually.

Married to a massive Harry Potter fan as I am, and having never heard of this bisexual plot before, I had a quick Google search, and found the source pretty easily:
Please note the published date.
Did the fact this 'news' broke on the 1st of April not give you some hints that this might, just might, not be legit?
Also once again no lies from J K Rowling here. The over medication of western society instead of accepting the need for personal responsibility, change and growth is an epidemic.

I dont think I ever saw the original source or date lol I just saw people talking about it on another forum with screenshots about a month ago. It sounded par for the course for how she has added to the universe. I stand corrected on that, but I still think she is trying to damage the franchise with controversy.

I had to laugh like that post, because it was so funny, but yup, yup, yup. I've been talking about this for ten years, and it's heartening to finally see more people doing the same.
There's nothing controversial about stating that drugging yourself up should be a last resort. People, and seemingly, their doctors are far too quick to jump to the nuclear option.

You don't have to follow the people who make the content you like. It's like people don't realize that anymore. Stop following her if you find what she's saying so offensive.
But I guess that's not the point for these losers. To them, getting pissed at the artist is as much a source of entertainment as the book or movie the person made. They're literally addicted to outrage and feeling morally superior.

Good luck cancelling a billionaire, morons. Rowling must absolutely enrage them; they're powerless.

No worries, I'd have bought it too if I wasn't married to a massive fan.
She gets a bad rap for the Dumbledore retcon, and supporting the casting of a black woman as Hermione in the non canon play, but the former made a hell of lot of sense for how the character was written, and the latter was just supporting a casting decision she had no say in for a play she had a vested financial interest in the success of.
Beyond that, pretty much everything SJW-y she's accused of saying is just memes taking the piss.
She's an old school New Labour lefty that despises Corbynites and the woke far left, hence why she's getting dragged as a Terf currently, and this isn't even the first 'crime' she's commited according to the woke fascists.

I’m on Lexapro because out of nowhere last October I started experiencing regular debilitating panic attacks. No known source. Never had one before in 40 years. It feels like I’m literally fading away, I get crazy dizzy, my blood pressure shoots up to 180+/50+, I can’t breath, my whole body buzzes.
Since getting on the meds, they are less severe and infrequent.

When you have people who unironically compare social and political events to Harry Potter scenes all the time it's kinda hard bruh.
Obamadore vs Trumpemort.
J.K Rowling just needs to leave social media though for her own benefit, I've never seen someone destroy their own legacy without actually damaging their own personal work.

Id say this is precisely the reason she needs to stick at it.
Like it or not, she does have a huge amount of influence over her audience.
She's also completely immune to being cancelled, because she's impossible rich and is responsible for one of the biggest brands in the world.
She's one of the few people able to actually fight back against this hateful bastards without consequences.

Going by what I've seen, JK Rowling is safe and so is the Harry Potter franchise.
She's similar to Elon Musk. Both can say stupid things on Twitter, yet their products and following outweigh anything they say.
That's probably because the fanbase for HP and Tesla is more about the products than the person. But in things like games, it sure seems to be more a bout the person than the game.

I think it's more the fact that in game development, everyone is replaceable, even the CEOs.
Unlike other industries, where one person can be responsible for enough power to be simply impossible to cancel, any resistance to the far left identitarian bigots that have infiltrated the games industry over the past decade has to be on a company wide basis, which is a lot harder to do.

But as a woman she cares about this issue and she is too big and too rich to be silenced.
What use is that kind of "power" if you're not willing to use it?

Not really true, man. I take an SSRI at a very low dosage. It keeps me at a good baseline compared to without (dysthymia, inherited).
I live pretty contented, adventurously, socially in a very performance-heavy job (teaching).
It's not a "nuclear" option and I definitely don't feel "drugged up".

So, research was done, you were found to have a condition, and treatment was applied? Alternatively, you knew about the condition beforehand from family.
As opposed to being thrown on a corrective treatment before exploring other alternatives.
Your case is exactly what I'm arguing for. The right treatment for the right severity. Rather than knee-jerk giving someone else the same treatment you need because they're sad.
You don't disagree with me. You're reacting to my choice of words. As an edit, drugged up is not an inaccurate description of some people on this stuff. Glad that's not you.

This woman is not the Hero we need but the one we deserve. She's inmune to the cancel culture as she owns one of the biggest franchises that exists with millions of followers and won't stop saying her stuff and her opinions. I love how the SJW and the thin-skins are raging so hard impotent of not having power enough to cancel her.
Not all heroes wear capes.

No, it was an April fools gag by a LGBT website, which is ironically one of the main places frothing at the mouth with rage at her currently.
When done publicly like this though, it at least let's everyone else clearly identify the idiots.

Sorry, but that's stupid. Some people just have mental problems that don't vanish with yoga, meditation, and living a good life.
Before we had SSRIs people just took a slew of other drugs (mainly alcohol) to cope with these problems.

It's almost like she didn't say medication doesn't work and isn't medically necessary for people, but instead pointed out how readily doctors will go with the easy option to doll out pills to treat the symptoms, instead of the more difficult treatment of the route cause, requiring responsibility and effort on the part of the sufferer, regardless of which would be the best option for the patient.
But no, let's just dismiss what she has to say outright, because it's not a blanket statement of truth in all circumstances.

Isn't it funny how these Trans Women can make derogatory remarks about women without being branded misogynists? It's almost as if these bio men who now identify as women use their trans identity as a sort of shield.
They are literally redefining womanhood and forcing bio women to accept it, but it's not classed as misogyny.

In response what you write above:
As if those people with these problems first step is always going to a doctor to get a happy pill solving all their problems.
Not everybody depressed had a bad childhood, was molested or were beaten in their marriage.
And usually those people who do prefer going into active therapy.
You are portraying it like it's people's own faults if they have mental problems by stating they are taking "the easy way" of taking medicine, when there is often no other way to treat that shit, because it's often just some brain chemistry that went awry.
Get off your high horse, mate.
There might be an over medication, but your dichotomic conclusion that it's either that or "accepting the need for personal responsibility, change and growth" is horrible and a typical stigma people with mental problems have to face each and every day.

Are you aware, that mental illnesses are often just that? An Illness?

She didn't tweet anything. Some guy called doctors lazy for handing out hormone pills like crazy as the only solution to people who feel they are trans.
And then the trans world went nuts because their idol doesn't bend the knee for them.
And I am not lazy, I identify as work-defecient. Its my medical condition that my brain doesn't match my bodies work ethics. Your lazyphobic and I am going to get you banned from this board for your racism. TERF.

Now your onto something.
Incel balding ugly men who can't get women decide to become women so then they can go into womens bathrooms and shit on women all day long all under the veil of being a real "women". And if a real women says she is a women, while she isn't really one because she didn't have to suffer the hardships these men did living their lives as men.
The hardest thing a women will ever face in her life, is being born a man. LOL.
