Singer Taylor Swift isn’t the only left-winger who’s had in recent days to learn the hard way that when you make your bed with liberal dogs, you inevitably catch some progressive-styled fleas.
Early Thursday morning, exactly a week after Swift announced she’s caught some liberal fleas, virulently far-left, anti-Trump author J.K. Rowling made the potentially fatal, career-destroying mistake of posting a tweet in defense of biological science on gender.
Look:
Dress however you please.
Call yourself whatever you like.
Sleep with any consenting adult who’ll have you.
Live your best life in peace and security.
But force women out of their jobs for stating that sex is real? #IStandWithMaya #ThisIsNotADrill— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) December 19, 2019
Congratulations, Miss Rowling, because you’re officially cancelled.
While the tweet hadn’t been ratioed quite yet as of around noon Thursday — though it was quickly approaching the ratio point — the comments underneath it were all scathing.
Take a quick peek:
This is so hurtful to so many people. I cannot believe that someone who wrote books that were so filled w/ humanity would espouse these views.
Let me repeat: you are doing real harm to human beings. Please reconsider.

I grew up as a trans child reading your books as an escape. I would often pick out names from characters to give to myself, before I ever felt comfortable in who I was. This decision, to support people that hate me, and want to do me harm. It brings me to tears… Why. Why?

Good job on using your huge platform to further marginalise one of the most marginalised groups in society.

I’m not usually one to rely on your books for political analogy, because they’re for children, obviously, but I think it’s appropriate to make an exception in this case: You’ve just joined the Death Eaters.

Just because you retroactively made Dumbledore gay doesn’t mean you get to be the supreme arbiter of queer issues Rowling, stop spreading this dangerous transphobic rhetoric

This is SUCH a dangerous precedent to set. Especially now that white supremacism, racism & the far right are gaining power & ground…to contribute to this global culture war against progressive values and LGBTQ communities is totally unacceptable. I implore you reflect.

@jk_rowling Rowling is a T.E.R.F. and should be cancelled.

TERF is a slur that stands for “trans-exclusionary radical feminist.” It’s used by the LGBT community to smear feminists who believe in biological science.
Feminists such as Maya Forstater, a fellow left-winger who was fired last spring from a poverty think-tank, the Centre for Global Development, after she posted tweets stating essentially that she believes men are men and women are women.
“Forstater, 45, a tax expert, was a visiting fellow at the Centre for Global Development (CGD), an international thinktank that campaigns against poverty and inequality,” The Guardian reported. “Her contract at the charitable organisation, which is based in Washington and London, was not renewed in March after a dispute over publicising her views on social media.”
In tweets described by her former employer as “offensive and exclusionary,” she spoke out against government reforms in the U.K. that would basically allow anyone to identify as any gender they desire.
Some examples of those “offensive and exclusionary” tweets may be seen below:
What I am so surprised at is that smart people who I admire, who are absolutely pro-science in other areas, and champion human rights & womens rights are tying themselves in knots to avoid saying the truth that men cannot change into women (because that might hurt mens feelings)

1) “Sex is not binary” – see @ProjectNettie
Females make eggs and gestate live young. Males generate sperm to fertilise the female egg.
It is that simple.
— Maya Forstater (@MForstater) December 9, 2019
2) “This is just like gay rights” – see @janeclarejones https://t.co/cYcqf0UcRN
This is not just a movement seeking to ensure that trans people are not discriminated against. It is committed to a fundamental reconceptualisation of the idea of what makes someone a man or a woman
— Maya Forstater (@MForstater) December 9, 2019
3) “Transwomen pose no more risk than women ” – see @K_IngalaSmith https://t.co/emOADAChK8
There is no credible evidence for this. It is not that men who identify as transgender are inherently violent — just that they are no less violent that other males
— Maya Forstater (@MForstater) December 9, 2019
After being removed from the think-tank, Forstater reportedly filed a legal challenge. Now fast-forward to Wednesday, when an employment tribunal reportedly ruled on the matter.
“I conclude from … the totality of the evidence, that [Forstater] is absolutist in her view of sex and it is a core component of her belief that she will refer to a person by the sex she considered appropriate even if it violates their dignity and/or creates an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment. The approach is not worthy of respect in a democratic society,” Judge James Tayler reportedly ruled.
All this because she tweeted that men are men and women are women …
It was this ruling that Rowling was responding to when she tweeted Thursday morning. Clearly, she believes that Forstater shouldn’t have been removed for stating biological facts.
There’s just one problem: The type of people whom Rowling has curried favor with — namely radically left-wing fanatics and zealots who believe, among other things, that President Donald Trump is a Russian puppet and that life on Earth will end in 12 years because of climate change — don’t believe in biological science.
And well, since she clearly DOES believe in biological science, you know what that means:
You’re learning that you can’t have a different opinion from tolerant liberals without being cancelled.
— Archie Bunker (@ArchieBunker19) December 19, 2019
JK Rowlings is finding out science & facts are offensive & are therefore prohibited on the left. Only feelings rule & so she is now being cancelled by her own people. You can never be woke enough till you accept every last one of their fantasies as reality
— Melissa A. (@TheRightMelissa) December 19, 2019
We told you not to side with the “#Woke Left” and you did it anyway.
The Hard Left has completely taken over “Liberalism” and if you cross them in any way or question their Dogma whatsoever.
You will be “Cancelled”.
Should have known better.

Buh bye, Miss Rowling …
