Oh sure, sometimes I overlook sarcasm. It's the internet, after all.

But whether or not you were sarcastic, this is exactly the kind of response JK Rowling got. TRAs know JK wrote her books. They were arguably all being sarcastic. It's still erasing female authorship. Either that's wrong or it's right. It's not right for you but wrong for TRAs.

No worries, I sometimes misinterpret the tone of comments, but I’ll make sure next time to note the snark and the end of a post.

And yeah, the way the TRAs are denying Rowling as the author of Harry Potter is downright despicable and disturbing. It’s another tactic to dismiss her achievements and it feeds into their denial of reality & their purity culture mentality, that an “awful” person couldn’t have created something beloved by many people.
