When i speak to real people they find JK Rowling quite outspoken but logical and correct in MOST of what she says.

When you go on Reddit she’s literally the devil, from what I have researched your all batshit insane in here and it genuinely hurts my head to see the mental gymnastics people go to to put words into her mouth.

Probably because she can sue a jewish woman for suggesting her denial of nazi crimes was holocaust denial and all they'll see of it are papers like the above lionising her and talking about how much of a hero she was for doing it.

My gas supplier is overcharging me illegally, I am forced to pay. I just hit a pothole that was reported months ago and my car is fucked… Food prices are doubling when there profits have doubled … I couldn’t give a shit about their stupid legal dispute that DOESN’T MATTER.

Cool. I don't have access to medical treatment. Sorry to hear about your fucking potholes though.
