J.K. Rowling: 'There's something dangerous' about the transgender movement
Breitbart.com ^ | 3/17/2023 | Paul Bois

Author J.K. Rowling continued to prove she will not back down in her criticism of transgender radicalism in a recent podcast episode in which she called the movement “dangerous.”

Speaking on the Witch Trials of J.K. Rowling podcast, the acclaimed Harry Potter author said she tried listening to transgender activists to better understand their views but ultimately concluded that something “dangerous” lurked within.

“I can only say that I’ve thought about it deeply and hard and long. And I’ve listened, I promise, to the other side,” Rowling said. “And I believe, absolutely, that there is something dangerous about this movement, and it must be challenged.”

The British author addressed the trolls who say she somehow “betrayed” the values espoused in her books.

“I’m constantly told that I have betrayed my own books, but my position is that I’m absolutely upholding the positions that I took in ‘Potter,’” Rowling said. “My position is that this activist movement in the form that it’s currently taking, echoes the very thing that I was warning against in ‘Harry Potter.’”

“I am fighting what I see as a powerful, insidious misogynistic movement that I think has gained huge purchase in very influential areas of society. I do not see this particular movement as either benign or powerless,” she continued.

“I can only say that I’ve thought about it deeply and hard and long and I’ve listened, I promise, to the other side. I believe absolutely that there is something dangerous about this movement and it must be challenged.” – J.K. Rowling. pic.twitter.com/Ay86Hnf78f

JK Rowling is correct. But the more transgender, AKA fake women insist on competing against women in sports, the more people are going to express their anger at this trans tyranny.

“ I believe absolutely that there is something dangerous about this movement and it must be challenged.”

I wonder how long it took her to figure that out.

Gee, I wonder what it could be? Uh, cutting off pre-teen boy’s penises? No, it wouldn’t be that. MAstectomy of teen age girls little boobs, no, not that either. I know, its that transfreaks won’t be buying Harry Potter fashion accessories as too binary.

Rowling is correct.

The danger seems obvious to me.

When a society insists a lie is truth, that individuals are gods; that reality must bend to their desires, it is very dangerous.

Humans are not gods, and reality asserts itself.

It’s well documented that homosexuals average life span is only 50.

Once enough time passes to have similar stats for transgenders, it will probably be even lower.

There is one voice that hasn’t been heard. At least someone had the courage to speak out even if he is silent.

No shiite. It’s destroying children by the truckload. And those it can’t destroy by transitioning, it will destroy by raping.

She didn’t just figure it out. She’s pulling her punches.

over 45% of people who transition will attempt suicide because of their decision. Trans is a mental issue. To continue to promote it is insaity

A lot of these poor kids just see it as a way to “protest” at first. Now instead of speeding through town, or drinking under age, they get their genitals mutilated, which isn’t something you sleep off.

The sexual mutilation of children is evil - that’s what’s wrong with the movement. Their ultimate target is hurting the innocent.

If the overarching goal is the Georgia Guidestones target of a 500M world population, transgender advocacy is a useful piece in getting there. The Utopian Satanists have many paths to this goal, but use the same hysterical attacks on reason to advance along each one.

The transgender “movement” is a passing fad that will work mischief for at least a generation, as this number of youth, unable to reproduce because of the mutilation and obliteration of their sexual organs, grows old and dies, much like the Shaker movement of a couple centuries ago, who as a part of their profession of faith, voluntarily became celibate. Not a good recruiting movement, because most young folks cannot fathom lifetime celibacy.

As of 2017, only two Shakers were known to have been still living, ages 60 and 78 then.

Just another dead end.

It’s a decision that have to live with forever. It will impact their careers, relationships, goals, aspirations and retirement future or lack there of. “Rachel” Devine lucked out after he abandoned his family to pursue his sexual dysfunction and his wife paid the price of his education and career before he dumped her for this. These kids won’t have someone to use like Rachel used his ex. They will never have anything. They will be a drain on society. All because someone groomed them to be sex toys at a young age. And now their lives are over

They claim it's because of transphobia. If only the world were more accepting. Not enough Trans Pride flags.
