There's a difference between saying what you think and being "threatening or abusive". Note that nothing JK has done so far actually qualifies.
If she directed her audience to harass the ones she mocked that would be different. At a certain point that shouldn't be allowed, no?
Won't someone rid me of this meddlesome priest?
It is illegal already, she can't make comments to her weirdly large base that have the same effect of causing violence or panic or fear thereof.
Hilarious that a chick who made her money off witchcraft and mildly pedophilic children's stories takes issues with morality of all things.
Hate to ask, but I don't want to google it, can you elaborate on that last bit?
Think about the plot of the books and get back to me on that one.
An abused boy becomes magical jesus and constantly fights magical hitler while attending magic school... I'm not getting the pedophilic bits unless you think children merely existing equates to pedophilia
If that's how you read it.
There's a teacher in the book who can see through clothes at a children's school and its held in the book by administration as a good thing to have around..... Think about that.
Ed: not enough?
A ghost woman who is canonically age 37 lives in the boys restroom of a children's school and again canonically watches potter and others bathe.... Its so well accepted its in the movies and no one thinks twice about it.
Polymorph potion, be anyone or anything of any age... I didn't really need to explain that.
Luck potion canonically a psuedodate rape drug.
Love potion a literal and unabashed date rape drug.
Damn, you finally produced some examples, should have started with those! Ill admit most of those are sketchy but man do they not play anywhere NEAR a large enough part in any if the books for you to assume any of us are going to be on the same page as you without those examples already present
I'm not a teacher, Its not my job to help people read.
An adult bathing with children and making inappropriate comments. "That's not pedophilia!" I think I know now who not to leave kids with.
Lmao, you're certainly not smart enough to be one
Sure, don't make an actual argument just insult me personally because you disagree. Neat.
Lmao, I knew you were stupid enough to go there, reread your texts and tell me who started insulting the other party first
You.
I simply said I wouldn't leave you alone with kids if you think adults bathing with children especially children that are not their own is ok.
Lmao, ok troll. Time to head back to 4chan, I'm done having an argument with someone in bad faith
There's the issue you're looking for an argument, everyone else is having a conversation.
I said SOME of them were sus. Myrtle being one of the bigger ones. I was just saying buddy would have had a better chance at a conversation if they actually brought these points up first instead of just walking into the conversation screaming "PEDOPHILE!"
I didn't scream pedophile, I said her books had a theme of mild pedophilia.
What you said offends me. You should got to jail for spreading hate speech
You know how people sometimes talk about not interacting in good faith?
I upvoted you, as the other guy was not reading your post, but disagree with the general stance. What is "reasonable" is still somewhat defined by the current political climate, even if it's not defined by a single person.
The UK government is currently very pro-Israel, and could easily use this to prosecute pro-Palestine/ceasefire protesters (assuming the existing anti-protest laws don't get them).
It massively limits the rights of minority political opinions.
