Rowling Gives Her ‘State of the Trans Conflict’ Address to Gender Holdouts

A representative of the Gender Ideology camp responded with snark, straight up:

Rowling replied by posting without comment a relatively current survey of British public opinion about “transgender rights,” almost all of which TRA talking points are marked as “Majority Disagree,” i.e., “the whole world” if anything seems to reject the claims of those who insist a thinking person (TM) must never “conflate” sex and gender.

Her implicit message to the TRAs and Gender Ideologues? The facts are now well known, the charade is now over, and “transgender women” are hereafter best described as “trans-identifying men.”

Rowling Offers Olive Branch to Harry Potter Actors and Fandom Leaders?

In a series of tweets today, Rowling called out those Trans Rights Activists who are now trying to re-write the history of their attacks on those who resisted Trans Mania, 2019-2024. A follower echoed that sentiment in support of that opinion which could have become a piling-on event. Rowling intervened, however, and said there are distinctions to be made between the TRA leaders and witless followers, which may seem as if she is willing to forgive and forget the Cancellation Campaigns led by Wizarding World franchise actors and Harry Potter fandom leaders.

Let’s review those tweets and contrast them with what Rowling said in January this year about the possibility of reconciliation with TRAs in Hollywood and Harry Potter fancon producers, podcasters, and website owners: [Read more…]

The Hallmarked Man and the Heart of Yorkshire

On Valentine’s day, Lindsey, one of the hosts of the Strike and Ellacott Files podcast, shared a very appropriate video short from inside York Minster. With the cathedral featuring in J. K. Rowling’s latest Twitter header, fans are hoping this is a good omen for the next installment.

 

Rowling Calls Out Leftists Against ‘Fair Sports’ for Women: No Thanks to Trump

The Daily Wire covered the story: ‘J. K. Rowling Reacts to Trump’s No Men in Sports Executive Order

“Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling, who has become an outspoken critic of trans-identifying men participating in women’s sports in recent years, posted a lengthy reaction on Thursday to President Donald Trump’s signing of an executive order banning the practice.

“Congratulations to every single person on the left who’s been campaigning to destroy women’s and girls’ rights. Without you, there’d be no images like this,” she said in a post to X that included an image of President Trump holding up the EO with his signature as he’s surrounded by young female athletes who witnessed the signing.

“This ‘why do you care about a tiny fraction of the population?’ line is, and always was, utterly ridiculous,” Rowling continued in a follow-up.

Has Rowling’s Literary Career “Tanked”?

After great battles, in the fog of war and consequent chaos and confusion, there is inevitably a remnant group, oftentimes isolated individuals as in the Japanese zanryū nipponhei (‘holdout soldiers’) that refused to surrender after WWII, who don’t understand that they’ve lost or that the conflict is over. In the case of the ‘Trans War’ between Gender Critical thinkers and Gender Theorists, this is evident in the True Believers, the Trans Radical Activists or TRAs who believe that the Lost Cause of the Confederacy, 21st Century edition, goes on despite the now triumphant consensus that “transgenderism” is not a Civil Rights but a mental health care issue. It’s ‘early days,’ certainly, but sanity seems to have returned to the American polity, at least, with respect to sex, gender, and the guardrails for the protection of children and the rights of women.

One quick way to spot a lost Confederate soldier is to check social media comments about J. K. Rowling. The remnant holdouts in the jungles online are testifying there that they believe their efforts to destroy J. K. Rowling, to cancel her by making even mentioning her name radioactive among all thinking people, were successful. Case in point, Kendal Peters, whose Twixter stream might be confused for a parody site because of its consistent conformity with every conventional political position advanced by the Legacy media. Last week, she (?) shared her belief that toxic and “transphobic” Rowling’s “literary career” had been “destroyed completely and globally” by the Forces of Good:

Truth tellers rushed to the internet island Peters lives on in the ‘cloud’ to share with her, that, no, Rowling’s book sales were booming, not crashing, and she was thriving as a writer rather than someone who was “destroyed.” [Read more…]
