About 4 months ago, fresh off the most intense period of the censorship campaign targeted at her, Rowling posted this tweet.
She is not an irritant to the regime. She is not simply someone with whom we might disagree on some things, agree on others, but with whom we share a common interest in freedom of expression: she is an active advocate of censorship for political dissidents, so long as they are not her.
She will continue to shriek from the hilltops about her right to free speech at the same time that she demands you be denied yours.
A similar TERF and (now former) cancel culture adherent, Graham Linehan, who was one of the most obnoxious anti-GGers back in the day, has himself endured a similar cancellation to Rowling's, and for the same reasons. He used that experience as a reason to reexamine his views on censorship and cancel culture. He has since acknowledged that he was wrong about Gamer Gate, and has issued a public apology to Count Dankula after spending years demanding he be sent to prison over the Nazi pug video.
That is an example of someone with whom we might disagree, but find common ground, because when his turn came to be an irritant to the regime and pay the price for it, he admitted he'd been wrong to support their tactics.
Rowling has proven herself incapable of either the moral or intellectual capacity to do this.
Simpsons did it!
The anti-war, isolationist, non-interventionist position is the one aspect of populism that appeals to pretty much everyone outside the elite, even across party lines, and yet it is the first one that DeSantis seems to have backpedaled on. Whatever he's doing, it's the opposite of trying to appeal to the mainstream voter. A significant amount of Trump's continued popularity stems from the fact that he is the only President in the past century who didn't involve the US in yet another war, and actually took steps to end ongoing military involvement overseas.
Turns out only humans are capable of the requisite levels of cognitive dissonance.
Also, in the middle of his robbery trial, a drug addict asked "If I'm found Not Guilty, can I keep all the stuff I took?"
Hmm. I wonder if they were worried they might not be able to compete with men on an even playing field?
Why not just end the separation of sexes in sporting events? Let men and women participate in the same competitions. It would save money and nobody would feel obligated to be bored watching women play sports.
Lol just wait. The blood, tears and recriminations will really start flowing when the Hollywood writers go on strike, which they will, probably this year. The studios will just replace them all with AI script generators and we'll start getting better content.
designed with children in mind
Sus.
We all knew they were never going ahead with that. It was just Disney trying to save their investment in The Last Jedi by saying, "We have so much confidence in this that we're giving the director his own trilogy!" It has always been bullshit.
I knew there was a reason we liked the stock!
Zoomers are going to live adult lives that are objectively harder in financial terms, less prosperous, less secure and ultimately less free than their parents and grandparents, and all of it because the preceding generations allowed themselves to be convinced that it's for their own good.
Lol nice cover.
Men are wimps because four entire generations of men were raised by women with almost no positive male role models.
This was allowed to happen because men caved to the women's rights lobby after the first world War, which became almost inevitable after an entire of generation of young men were massacred.
The same generations of men that built our highways and electrical grids, went to the moon and invented the internet all folded up like a cheap suit in the face of feminist infiltration into our institutions. They allowed this to happen, and their sons and grandsons are paying the price for it.
None of that absolves women of their responsibility.
The left were lambasting Zaslav as a Trump-supporter because he cancelled a couple of their pet woke projects like Batgirl, but he's really just interested in making money. He made a couple of good decisions like shaking up the DCEU execs, but then he put James Gunn in charge, and now this, so clearly he's not as smart as we thought.
Warner is easily the stupidest company out there. They must really just hate money.
Sure and he can appoint his tech-investing venture capitalist brother as the Fed chairman. That will definitely solve the current banking crisis.
The only take from her that is anti-establishment at all is her anti-war stance.
Should have just kicked the cunt out. This is going to blow up in their faces.
Was he checking for cumstains with a UV light again? Because that might violate their lewd content policy.
Adjacent to the university's campus
So literally on a public sidewalk. I'm going to refer to this the next time I get accosted by PETA or Greenpeace tryhards handing out sign-up forms.
pretending it was nothing more than a breeding contract
It's not even that, since same-sex couples that are biologically incapable of breeding can get married.

The Haitian revolutionaries received logistical, financial and military support from the British and the Spanish, who hoped to use it to undermine French interests and power in the Caribbean, and it worked. They likely wouldn't have been successful without that support.
But I thought Velma was a runaway success? That's what all the critics told me.
