Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling is on the cancel culture chopping block yet again - this time for agreeing that the word “cisgender” is just “ideological language.”
The situation first arose when Elon Musk, Tesla owner and CEO of Twitter, said that “cis” and “cisgender” - terms leftists use to describe people who identify with their biological sex - were considered slurs on Twitter.
Rowling, who’s been called a “TERF” (Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist) countless times, added her two cents in a tweet on June 21. Here’s what she said:
'Cis' is ideological language, signifying belief in the unfalsifiable concept of gender identity. You have a perfect right to believe in unprovable essences that may or may not match the sexed body, but the rest of us have a right to disagree, and to refuse to adopt your jargon.
The word “cisgender,” or “cis,” references someone who identifies as the same gender that they actually are. They’re not pretending to be a he or a she or a he/she or a neither. Most “normal” people are cisgender. To Rowling's point, this phrase is ridiculous. It makes no sense for a term like this to even exist, as anything other than “cisgender” is a delusion. There’s no such thing as “transgender” or “non-binary,” “pangender,” “third gender,” or any of the other 97 made-up genders.
In response to Rowling’s tweet, Musk replied, “Exactly.”
Naturally, a raging mob of Twitter users blasted Rowling for merely speaking up. Don’t forget that the left only wants free speech to apply to people that affirm and agree with their bizarre talking points. One user replied with a gif that stated “GO F*CK YOURSELF,” and another said, “It’s obvious why your daughter hates you.” Another crazy girl wished death upon Rowling and Musk by stating, “idfc i wish both of them were on that fucking submarine,” referring to the sub that imploded on a sight-seeing expedition to the Titanic wreckage earlier this week.
That’s the tolerant left for you.
Numerous other users just replied with the word “cisgender” over and over and over again. How original.
This isn’t the first time Twitter losers have come after Rowling. In February, a self-identifed “trans dyke” threatened to slit Rowling’s throat after calling her a “fear-mongering TERF," all because Rowling, and rightfully so, doesn’t believe that trans women are real women (spoiler: they aren’t!). Rowling’s name has also been torn and scratched from Harry Potter books (yes, the ones she wrote), she's been called a “bigot” for funding a women-only rape help center, and even Daniel Radcliffe, the actor who played Harry Potter, abandoned the author in favor of defending trannies.
All in all, especially with this whole “cis” debate, the left has shown time and time again that they have no decency, respect, or care for any opinions that differ from their own. Free speech means absolutely nothing to them.
