J.K. Rowling: 'There's something dangerous' about the transgender movement

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.

She should have thought about that before making Dumbledore gay.

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

Most people who take the time to post on the internet are trolling others. Much of the time they don’t express an opinion because they don’t take enough time to think things all the way through. They simply say whatever they can to get a response. I have known people like this. You are talking to them and for a moment they seem to agree but then they take an opposite view and argue. It doesn’t matter what you say they will argue against you. They get satisfaction from it. Forums like this are perfect for them.

Feminists like JK Rowling have done more damage to western society over the past 100 years than any trannies have, noxious as they are. Feminism, liberalism, multiculturalism, and socialism are bigger cancers than this annoying trans fad.

This was the inevitable outcome of the legitimization of homosexuality, which Rowling had a hand in bringing about, so she has no right to complain now.

It goes much deeper than just the “T’s.”

There something dangerous about the entire acronym of perversion.
