      All the money in the world and all the other causes she could be throwing her influence and wealth behind…How about helping women in disadvantaged areas? Change your heart or die!

    2. Just a hot tip: if you’re in a fight with Amnesty International over being called anti-rights and you decide to finance lawsuits to take away their rights, you’re just proving the point.

      You know if you’re threatening “waves of attacks”, maybe you aren’t the good guy in this story?

    4. I feel that ‘targeting Amnesty International’ should be an ‘Are we the bad guys?’ moment.

      Unfortunately, it won’t be.

    5. I’m so tired of this disgusting vile woman. Genuinely such a sad existence she lives.

      People need to understand that watching the new Harry Potter series, playing the video game, going to Harry Potter theme parks, etc, all directly and materially fund anti-trans hate groups

      Why does she spend her days being so vile and cruel? If I had as much money as JK does, you’d never hear a peep from me.

    8. I’ve never met anyone so incredibly focused on one “issue.” It seems like it’s become her sole purpose in life.

    9. All those money and adoration from her fans yet she decides to be a hateful loser

    10. I’m so tired of her!! Sending all my love to our trans brothers and sisters facing constant attacks for just living!!!!

      It gets harder and harder to keep myself from laughing in the faces of people who are STILL fans of Harry Potter as an IP.

      Like outside of fanfics or YouTube history lessons about the wild fandom history there is no reason anyone should be engaging with JK’s SLOP.

      Edit: I heard she recently shared an UPSKIRT PHOTO of a trans woman, and remarked that she deserved it.

    12. I don’t know what happened to this woman. She once spoke so eloquently about her time working for Amnesty International and how those experiences inspired Harry Potter.

      ***I shall never forget the African torture victim, a young man no older than I was at the time, who had become mentally ill after all he had endured in his homeland. He trembled uncontrollably as he spoke into a video camera about the brutality inflicted upon him. He was a foot taller than I was, and seemed as fragile as a child. I was given the job of escorting him back to the Underground Station afterwards, and this man whose life had been shattered by cruelty took my hand with exquisite courtesy, and wished me future happiness.***

      ***And as long as I live I shall remember walking along an empty corridor and suddenly hearing, from behind a closed door, a scream of pain and horror such as I have never heard since. The door opened, and the researcher poked out her head and told me to run and make a hot drink for the young man sitting with her. She had just had to give him the news that in retaliation for his own outspokenness against his country’s regime, his mother had been seized and executed.***

      ***Every day of my working week in my early 20s I was reminded how incredibly fortunate I was, to live in a country with a democratically elected government, where legal representation and a public trial were the rights of everyone. Every day, I saw more evidence about the evils humankind will inflict on their fellow humans, to gain or maintain power. I began to have nightmares, literal nightmares, about some of the things I saw, heard, and read.***

      ***And yet I also learned more about human goodness at Amnesty International than I had ever known before.***

      Terfs are some of the most thin skinned people I’ve ever come across. They also love making their bed with the far right yet complain every time someone points it out.

      Idk what she’s so mad about. Being anti-trans IS anti-rights. Fuck off Joanne

      Targeting Amnesty International… And she thinks she’s one of the good guys?!

      Do people who are a part of the “LGB” movement ever consider that there would be no “Pride” without trans women? Mind you, they probably hate Pride, too.

    17. The fact that Amnesty International almost immediately retracted is so desperately disappointing. This story, these issues need to be platformed and now human rights organisations are being kowtowed.

    18. She’s such a dogshit human being. She’s had all the time and money to properly verify any of the bootlicking shit that she says but she doesn’t because the cruelty is the point.

      This isn’t the first time she’s bullied a charity with her money and it probably won’t be the last. Absolutely despicable.
