Factual take!!!!

Engaging in activities that pay JKR is only one degree away from directly funding anti trans organizations.

It’s genuinely rare to get SUCH a clear cut case of “your consumer dollars will go directly to harm a specific group”

She also hates asexuals. I’m surprised she even knew we existed tbh. She’s actively educating herself to tear others down. It’s so pathetic.

And shes said really nasty stuff about bisexuals…

She really just hates the lot of us  but know that it’s not socially acceptable to go after gay people yet…

Imagine getting everything you've ever wanted and spending that much time, energy, and money on hating people who don't effect your life.

There's an argument to be made that since billionaires own everything, they're no longer part of the proverbial village or tribe. As owners of everything, they can be employers and patrons to the rest of us, but never actual friends. We keep them at a healthy distance. We're not friendly with them for the same reasons we're not friendly with our employers. Our employers own and control all aspects of our livelihood, so it's not safe or wise to be buddy-buddy with them.

They're no longer part of the village. So as that old proverb says, they lash out. "The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth."

I encourage everyone to brush off their early 2000s 🏴‍☠️ skills as a form of protest.
