JK Rowling is an Author, not an ex pop star, football hero, actress or anyone else used to being recognized and potentially mobbed everywhere they go.

The celebrity has a duty to their fans theory is not as applicable here.

Most celebrities are famous because what they did needed the mass attention, but authors nearly always stay out of the public eye, only doing book signings and occasionally appearing on factual or current affairs shows.
Rowling is a bit more publicly recognized than typical authors, but she is no Victoria Beckham.

Why should she take her kids out to be on public display?

This freak is also seemingly siding with a domestic abuser.

People who commit such acts often seek ways to justify it and are manipulative.
Of course he would say something like she was controlling. That doesn’t mean it’s true.
It’s more than likely his justification for beating her.

If this is a troon, it shouldn’t surprise me that he thinks women should know their place.

Granted things were different then, but I think most people were better able to separate him from his work and not feel personally betrayed by his beliefs.

The internet plays a big part in it in my opinion. Harry Potter became big when the internet became more mainstream. I remember the forums solely dedicated to Harry Potter lore, theories, fanfics,... And even back then I thought how insane and rabid some fans were (some if not most of them fully grown adults).
Sure, without the internet some would still be crazy, but the community would tell them to drop it. With dedicated online spaces it is easier to egg each other on. Obsessive behaviour is encouraged.

And it didn't help that Roling herself encouraged fans to write stories and even linked fanfictions she liked on her website. I don't want to blame her, she was excited that people liked her story. But even back then it fostered some entitlement in some fans.

You and me both fren. I am embarrased to have ever believed a single word the wokescolds have said. Glad I left.

I think with the gender shit in particular, most people simply don't grasp the scope of it. Most people just want to be left alone and are ready to leave others even if they are a bit weird. They are also under the impression that transitioning is a carefully vetted process for genuinely sick people.

When I tell people a 200 pound 6'9 dude with a full beard can just call himself Jenny and everyone has to go along with it and how he can get changed next to their six year old niece and mentioning it is verboten, most simply don't believe me.

It's not a mistake, it's a deliberate euphemism designed to minimise what he actually did, on the same level as "consent accident". Someone with little knowledge of their relationship might actually think this means that he educated her. They want to rehabilitate her ex to use as a cudgel against her.

They also attempt to hijack a legitimate counter-positition to the "believe women" narrative, which I assume they previously dismissed the ranting of incel chuds: The idea that domestic abuse is often reciprocal in function, if not in form. They do this with the claim Rowling was "controlling" and had poor character, as if this would justify the violence meted out against her.

All of this is attempting to establish a new narrative that Rowling's abuse didn't happen, wasn't as bad as she claims if it did, and she probably deserved it anyway.

her ex husband even admits he beat her and was a controlling psycho, so of course the troons think he's epic and cool

The only relatives of famous authors I can even name are Christopher Tolkien, Brian Herbert and Tabitha King. They're all published authors too and I don't even know what the first two look like (Tabitha looks a bit downsy).

Christopher Tolkien just looks like a bearded academic.
Even if people saw him on TV, he wouldn’t stand out in the street. He would just be taken for another bearded, well dressed guy who is probably a university lecturer or similar.

I assume Brian Herbert looks somewhat similar.
Frank Herbert was also a bearded academic looking fellow (notice a theme in grand sci fi/ high fantasy authors).

I definitely wouldn’t recognize any of Hunter Thompson’s children, and he was a very recognizable person who had more than one popular, and one hated, film made about him.

Rhianna Pratchett is a bit more distinctive, being an gothy woman who is still gothing it up in her 40s, but that goes with the territory of being a fantasy author.
Otherwise she is pretty ordinary looking and definitely not someone who would turn heads on the street.

Real “author celebrities” are the minority, with George RR Martin being the only one alive and writing, at least at the time of this post, I can think of who would be publicly recognized by the general public.
Most celebrities who are authors are people who are famous for something else who then write a cookbook, novel or piece related to their primary fame.
A memoir doesn’t count in my opinion.

Authorship is the best route to being famous, but not hunted by paparazzi.
JK Rowling is very much in the minority in how recognizable she is.
 
I said this in a different thread, but it's the act of crusading for justice and civil rights that's more important than the civil right themselves. People who have time to obsess about Rowling online are not suffering in any real capacity, but they have to convince themselves otherwise, and suffering, even if self-actualized or contrived, is what brings people meaning in a world where they have very comfortable lives. Everyone on some level needs to feel lower on the pecking order, or it feels like there's nothing to live for. The mythology around Rowling as an evil mastermind of hate is precisely because troons in the U.K and in general know deep down they have so little left to fight for that justifies them as marginalized and thus special people in a world where if you're not online having the most obnoxious takes possible, you basically don't exist.

This is why you cannot reason or bow to modern activists - they need a villain as part of their story, and they can afford (for now) to push against other people's credulity because they also know that the tide is generally with them. Rowling, (like the Farms) is their handpicked enemy, and she has to stay that way or they'll have nothing to do with themselves. I think the incredibly sustained anger at Rowling isn't that she's mostly unflappable and difficult to slander, it's that she's simply not behaving as the Dark Queen of Evil caricature they want her to be.

I am shocked, SHOCKED that Jk Rowling want her children to have a private life.

It’s fucking terrible. JK Rowling should be exposing her children so that trannies can threaten to kill and rape them. What a fucking horrible bigot she is.

I’m just as shocked as you are.

I was wondering when the HPANA/wizardingnews guy was going to start showing up here more. About a year ago some one-off tweet he made was on here and I was surprised to look into him and find it was the same guy who once ran one of the main early Harry Potter fan sites. It was an aggregator for news on the series. looking back if someone was able to put that sort of obsessive thing together back then, dude is clearly an autist who’s now turned his obsession on something else. Wiki says Rowling worked with HPANA when Pottermore was launched, so I wonder if she and Jeff Guillaume actually met in saner times, or if he made that up.

Back then when I was looking through his account, he was attacking other Harry Potter fansites from that era that are still around (Mugglenet and The Leaky Cauldron) for not going insane and dedicating themselves to news about how much they hate Rowling like he has.

Clearly has more than a couple of screws loose and I hope she does sue the hell out of him, except that inevitably the headlines will be EVIL ROWLING IS SUING INNOCENT HARRY POTTER FANS NOW!!!

He justifies his weird hate boner for her by saying he wants to document her “sad decline after alienating her former fans”, I’m paraphrasing but he said in a tweet words to that effect,

Personally I think he’s just like any other lefty tranny chaser.

I think he's just fucking crazy. If Rowling had never said a word about the trans movement, or even if she were completely on board with it, this guy is clearly obsessed with her and probably would have reached the level of "dangerous fan" in the last few years. Like, Mark David Chapman or John Hinckley dangerous. Unfortunately, he managed to find a political movement as insane and narcissistic as himself, so he's got defenders, and will probably continue to have defenders even if he should take the next step and try to hurt or kill the object of his craziness.

I agree that most authors you wouldnt even recognize in public. I mean look at twilight, very popular book that became a movie and when the first movie came out not many recognized her appearance in it. I dont know much about any author I read about, they usually are not like celebrities who have paparazzi around 24 7. Most people with brains (sadly not troons) actually applaud parents like jk Rowling to not use her children as props for attention online. Yeah we dont hear about her kids, their sports activities growing up etc. Doesnt mean her family and friends didnt know.
 
Imagine being so thirsty in your want to dish out rape threats to women, that you hold genuine repulsion towards their mother for not doxxing them for you. It's the kind of logic I would expect to hear on the interview tapes of an 80s serious killer. "It was that whore's mothers fault for not giving me her number when I ASKED POLITELY. She's in a ditch because of HER!"

I'm a genuine piece of shit, but I don't think I could ever be as misogynistic as these mother fuckers.
