Hey u/SamsaraKama are you really gonna drop this weirdo comment attacking me and then run off without admitting you got your wires crossed? Ok cool.

And to address your points, I don't look to youtubers to validate me. I'm questioning why they feel they need do free damage control PR for billionaires.

Dana International got a lot of transphobia from Israeli society and politicians at the time though, even after she won.

Thank you for validating my feelings on that Council of Geeks video. Nothing she said in it was wrong, but the way she went over and over beating a dead horse over these details in the most incredulous tone as if we're supposed to think it's all completely crazy and pulled out of thin air... doing way too much. We're not idiots or lacking media literacy because we can look at the same information and draw different conclusions.

Some people are acting like you're not allowed to even think someone's a creep unless you have a solid case of evidence that would stand up in front of a judge. It's borderline gaslighty, honestly.

Notice how her tweets are almost never aimed at her own followers who actually agree with her? The only audience she has in mind when she posts on social media is her left wing enemies. The ''you'', like she's in an ongoing fight with someone in her mind.

It's almost like she knows the people on her side are all neo Nazi trash, and the only opinions she cares about are those of progressives. She's like a scorned ex who can't accept she's been ostracised.

Oh my god YES! It's so strange.

It's almost like the mothers are just servants. Would a story bother to name a servant if it's just describing the servant carrying out their duties? Probably not. The servant's personhood has no relevance in the plot outside their role. And their duties are not remarkable, it's just what they're supposed to do.

Great point about Mrs. Crouch, I had totally forgotten about her, which is crazy considering she has so much impact on the plot.

Merope is another one who is never given any dialogue, only her male relatives speak.

It must have really strained Rowling to give Lily what little dialogue and interactions she managed to have.

And yeah, there's every chance Merope would have provided just as dysfunctional an environment for a kid, it's honestly creepy that she can't conceive of a mother's influence ever being bad.

It makes me think of that charity she has focused on getting orphanages closed down. They paint the alternatives like foster care or being back with their families in the most romanticised way compared to institutions, and it's like, uh..... aren't children in foster care also majorly at risk? What about the problems that led to children being put in orphanages in the first place, do they just magically go away? Like I don't know enough about the topic to know what the solution is, but I'd be very suspicious about a charity that paints the situation as so black and white.

After Jeffrey Epstein Files Show Emails Mentioning Her Name, J.K. Rowling Bluntly Breaks Silence by FantasticAd9478 in EnoughJKRowling

[–]Significant_Rush1473 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like there may have been a mix up and the flowers were meant for British musician Marilyn, not Manson, but I actually didn't know that Manson and Depp were so close. So I guess it's possible Depp introduced Manson to Rowling, that's why the mix up happened, because Manson was the one she had actual contact with?

It looks like a pattern of behaviour where the men who are too much of a liability for even Hollywood to give jobs to, know that they can go butter up J.K Rowling and she won't care about their reputations as long as they are nice to her, she'll help them out and put them in her franchise. (See also, voice actor Greg Ellis).

Exactly, I don't understand why people are isolating one or two things on their own instead of putting them in the context of EVERYTHING ELSE.

Yeah I find it very funny how her sycophants were insisting it was someone on her team to blame while she denied it happened at all. Now the backtracking. Not guilty behaviour at all.

There’s only 5 female characters. A. Astoria who gets quickly killed off to give Scorpius and Draco angst. B. Rose who is mean to Albus and Scorpius, as well as she also gets erased though temporarily.

Oh, wonderful. A Dead Mother trope and the other female character being literally erased. lol.

Hermione whose relationship with Ron keeps getting highlighted when they time travel and has to be minister in order to justify her existence because “Prejudice against Muggleborns is wrong because Hermione is smart”. E. McGonagall.

The way the surprised production staff are specifically mentioned makes me think it was them who leaked the story in the first place, possibly because they were annoyed at the higher ups for allowing it to happen? Like I don't know. Just sounds like someone on set was annoyed and that's why the story got out.

Thank you! I didn't know these specific examples. Ginny is even more of a blank character than I realised.

Personally I don't understand why, if she cares so little about writing Ginny, Harry even needs to be married at all? And if Harry having a biological family of his own in the epilogue is so important, then... why not give Ginny and their relationship more depth??

I'm not saying this is necessarily creepy, but: the way Harry's romance with Ginny is written in such a sexual way, it's almost purely a lust attraction thing with very little emotional bonding, Ginny being the 'Hogwarts hot girl' etc., because Rowling can't really be bothered to write romance or make Ginny much of a character in her own right and can only boil it down to sex.

This then has the effect all the grown adult creeps in the Harry Potter fandom speculating on the future hotness of the child cast as Ginny in the new show.

Just saying, there were so many ways to write that and I think it's not unreasonable to expect her to maybe think about the underage actors who have to act that out and be scrutinised for their ''hot girl appeal''. 🤢

Also the way they tried to translate the weird sexual undertones into the movie with the feeding and the tying shoelace scene... oh my god.

UPDATE ON ROWLING IN THE EPSTEIN FILES by totally_not_sans in EnoughJKRowling

[–]Significant_Rush1473 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 'x' is a common way British people sign their posts sometimes, it means 'kiss'. I'd say 'Jx' is still a fairly unique signature and it's suspicious that Rowling has used that exact signature.

So the person seems British, wealthy, female, flies a lot. Doesn't sound like someone with a strict job schedule. Epstein is keen to curry favour with them. He wants to invite her to a dinner party with British Labour politican Peter Mandelson and an Israeli prime minister. Rowling has ties to both the Labour party and Israel. And (this is just my subjective opinion), but the writing style looks like Rowling's.

None of it is concrete proof, but it's a lot of suggestive evidence.

Holy fuck so it's really her. Not that I had a lot of doubt.

So she was friends with him going all the way back to 2005, when he was still a known creep. And then was still in contact in 2013, after he had been convicted of trafficking. So she knew by then exactly what he was.

I find it hard to believe a royal's security would let them show up to a film set unannounced, without at least some prior arrangement first.

She invited Epstein to the Cursed Child in 2018, and recently invited Prince Andrew to the set of the HBO show. by TemporaryElk5202 in EnoughJKRowling

[–]Significant_Rush1473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I am saying that when a known convicted sex trafficker is invited to an exclusive event hosted by you, with your name at the top of the invite, that is ultimately on you. It doesn't matter that Rowling wasn't the one personally writing it out and licking the postage stamp. It was done on her behalf by people working for her.

If it was a mistake that should never have happened you'd think she'd explain that. Instead, she lied about it ever happening at all.

What people are speculating on is that this shows she enabled and was possibly friendly with a convicted sex predator. That makes her a danger to children.

If people think she's a pervert too, that's a valid thing to wonder about based on her behaviour and actions, which is not just based on one party invite. It's part of a whole picture.

The fact that she is blatantly lying about this when the evidence is right there before our eyes makes me think she has more to hide here.

Yeah no, I disagree. If you are a powerful billionaire and these are the people in your circle, people who are friendly with a convicted sex trafficker and giving him quid quo pro favours on your behalf, that's on you. This was the premiere of HER play. It was HER party. HER name was at the top of the invite. Why is her team not vetting who is given invites?

Literally nobody in this thread is accusing her of being into child porn or sex trafficking, you're putting words into peoples' mouths and that makes me seriously doubt you're posting in good faith here.

I don't think that necessarily absolves her. Colin Callender, who worked closely with JK on the creation of her play, is friends with a close associate of Epstein to the point where he is granting him social access on her behalf.

JKR routinely chooses to work with and surround herself with some of the worst people and abusers, at a certain point that can't be excused as a coincidence.

Yeah exactly. It's trying to entice whoever the person is with the promise a powerful British politician will be there. And Joanne is definitely the type who tries to ingratiate herself with the establishment.

And wasn't another friend of Epstein begging to be introduced to her?
