for those unaware today india experienced one of its biggest protests in half a decade. there were protests all over the nation for various causes but the major one was in delhi. all we asked for was the resignation of the education minister because he's failed the students of this nation time & time again. but we were met with brutality, the police had barricaded the main site of protest (jantar mantar). metro stations were shutdown, the public was restrained from reaching the protest site and all the adjoining areas had signal jammers to make sure the crowd had no access to constant updates. they had us blocked from all the sides. they were lathi (baton) charging students from one side & releasing tear gas from the other. you couldn't walk 100 m on streets without having a tear gas shell thrown at you. there were many students, women & kids bleeding — some from their head. some couldn't walk anymore. the police had removed their nameplates & acted with full impunity to resort to unprecedented levels of violence. they were pelting stones at us, beating up people for no reason, forcefully detaining them and attacking us constantly with tear gas & rubber bullets. they wouldn't let you exit either. the crowd was peaceful & looking out for each other yet they were met with violence. i made a friend who was all alone & she asked to join me & my friend because a policeman wouldn't leave her alone. he constantly prodded her for personal info, invited her back to the jeep saying they have food there, wouldn't stop following her around. you couldn't call or ask anyone for help, we were left to fend for ourselves & be on a constant lookout if you did not want to be beaten up to death by police. all for what? asking a resignation? shame on this country.

I feel like simply calling JK Rowling a transphobe isn't strong enough anymore. Like. This is not your grandpa calling you by your deadname at a restaurant kind of transphobic. This is her wanting to eradicate all trans people (with an extra special hatred towards trans women specifically). This is her trying just that by personally funding transphobic hate groups with millions to push around laws in the UK. It is not hyperbolic to call her a dangerous, genocidal maniac.

It's not about cancelling a problematic writer. It's about literally trying to save lives by denying her as much money and power as possible.

since this post was made, Rowling has also made it clear she is very willing to actively sue and dismantle AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL, a global human rights organisation, for correctly labelling JKR’s charity and other TERF groups as “anti-rights” groups

on top of this, she has also publicly shared upskirt photos of a trans woman without the woman’s permission, which is genuine, actual sexual harassment, particularly when Rowling has such a large platform

there is no hyperbole in saying that any non-critical engagement with anything Harry Potter goes towards boosting Rowling’s presence and stature, and that any support for the franchise, in any way, goes directly to facilitating exterminationist policy in the UK and elsewhere, the dismantling of international organisations for rightfully calling her and her bigoted followers out on their bigotry, and also to the continued sexual harassment, bullying, and assault of trans women

A very common misconception within the south asian community. So glad she addressed that. (x)
