this will keep going until it can’t

A preview linking to this article in The Advocate. Here’s some quotes:

“I looked into all options and a private fund is the most efficient, streamlined way for me to do this,” she said. “Lots of people are offering to contribute, which I truly appreciate, but there are many other women’s rights orgs that could do with the money, so donate away, just not to me!”

It is not the first time Rowling has used her over $1 billion net worth to influence legal cases involving so-called women’s sex-based rights — a dog whistle used by herself and other anti-trans activists to exclude trans people from public spaces and reduce women to their genitals.

Note the “workplace” and “public life.” Note how it – as always – gets expanded. Note that it means everywhere outside your goddamn house.

For now.

Don’t worry, they’ll get there.

And the thing is…

The thing is…

The more she does this, and the more that people keep giving her money by supporting her work despite that, the more that other people of similar mindsets see that it’s safe to follow her example.

It shows her, it shows them, it shows everyone that they will not be punished for trying to persecute and terrorise trans people entirely out of existence. Eradication of trans people is polite politics. It’s respectable. It’s fine.

So if you – in the sense of an arbitrary person – support her work, you are not only confirming her thesis, you are encouraging others to join her and do the same.

This cycle will continue until it can’t because people finally stop handing these fascists their fucking money, which they absolutely will not fucking do.

But if and when that should finally happen, this will finally stop.

And not one minute before.

So the ball’s in your court, Potter fans. Frankly, after decades of watching straights throwing their money at anti-queer eradication activists my entire goddamn life, no matter how explicit and forthright they are about their genocidal aims, you know what? I’m not holding my breath.

But prove me wrong.

Please. Seriously. I’m actually begging you.

Prove me wrong.
