0·5 days agoI think everyone -including public figures- should be allowed to learn from their mistakes and grow. I think social media can interfere with that and make people refuse to admit error and double down for fear of being cancelled. Ideally this should change.
But, the case of Jo Rowling in particular is egregious. Not only does she refuse to engage with the possibility of being wrong, her bigotry extends beyond words, into concrete, hateful actions where she is fuelling the fire of transphobia worldwide with her influence, both parasocial and financial. That results in misery and suffering for millions. Fuck Jo Rowling.
This condemnation of her doesn’t extend to everyone. And if she one day sees the light and walks everything back, then she should get a chance to redeem herself, too.

0·6 days agoThe clues to who she is were there all along in her writing. She couldn’t keep quiet, because she believes what she’s doing is right. Because she’s conservative.
The only major black character in the series is called “Shacklebolt”. The only Asian, “Cho Chang”. Zero LGBTQ representation in the books. Harry had the world at his feet and decided to join the police. The whole struggle of the saga is for a return to the status quo, rather than a better world. General lack of female agency, and women just being hysterical and needing to be slapped out of it. Goblins as an antisemitic trope. I could go on.
I put it to you that it was inevitable that, one way or another, her rancorous bile would have spilled out into the public debate as soon as she got famous.

These people are opportunists, not 5D chess players.

World News@lemmy.world•Israel passes law to give death penalty to Palestinians convicted of lethal attacksEnglish
0·6 days agoYou’re only shining a light on part of the fascist machine here.
Fascism others all people. It’s a divide and rule strategy applied to society. Women, minorities, disabled, gay, poor, trans…
Of course it includes gender supremacy, as well as racial, religious, philosophical supremacy etc. This is just another lever of power for fascists; a symptom, not the disease itself.
It’s one of the most naked contradictions in fascism, Hitler wasn’t Aryan. Women fascists are still male supremacists. People still vote for it.

0·8 days agoUtter nonsense. Just because Israel lies between the river and the sea, doesn’t mean the words “from the river to the sea” mean “eliminate Israel”. You’re completely mental.

0·21 days agoIt is debatable. It doesn’t mean to eliminate Israel, it means to liberate Palestine. It’s not genocidal, it’s anti-genocide.

0·23 days agoWhat a silly thing to say. Here are a few examples of actual genocidal language:
Galit Distel Atbaryan (Likud MK, former Public Diplomacy Minister): Called for “erasing all of Gaza from the face of the Earth” and described the enclave as needing to be “wiped out”.
Amit Halevi (Likud MK): Stated that the goal of the war is that there is “no more Muslim land in the land of Israel” and suggested leaving Gaza as a “monument, like Sodom”.
Nissim Vaturi (Deputy Speaker of the Knesset, Likud): Stated in February 2025 that “all adults in Gaza should be killed” and that “the children and women need to be separated and the adults in Gaza eliminated”.
Boaz Bismuth (Likud MK): Invoked the biblical reference to “erase the memory of Amalek,” a phrase frequently interpreted as a call for the total destruction of an enemy, similar to references made by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Ariel Kallner (Likud MK): Urged a “Nakba that will overshadow the Nakba of '48,” referencing the 1948 forced displacement of Palestinians.
Tally Gotliv (Likud MK): Demanded “crushing and flattening Gaza without mercy”. Hnoch Milwidsky (Likud MK): In a 2026 report, was cited as having stated during a debate that “it is legitimate” for soldiers to rape Palestinians.

0·24 days ago1.5 “from the river to the sea” is not a slogan calling for the destruction of Israel.
Technically, it didn’t disappear at all!
