This quote is from an outraged mod of r/JKRowling

"There is a very vocal group on this sub, that we as mods are concerned about, as this group shares a lot of the same thoughts of now banned community, r/Gendercritical, and many people have taken to this platform to continue this discussion, but center it around Rowling. The Mod team will not stand for it. We do not want this community banned, we do not want to become a Rowling-centric Gender Critical."

My translation:

Those awful, awful, BANNED Gender Criticals have arrived on our sub to SHARE THEIR THOUGHTS and stink up the place with their rational ideas on sex versus gender - the NERVE!

Hey, mods of r/JKRowling - J.K. Rowling is gender critical, so are you going to ban her from her own sub?

Why are people who disagree with her admining a sub dedicated to her? It makes no sense. Everything they said about “those awful, awful, banned GC’s” applies to her as well and yet they want her page to not get banned. Super odd to silence the views of the person the sub is dedicated to discussing. I’m sure there’s a Harry Potter sub (or several), why wouldn’t they just go there instead of specifically a JK Rowling sub?

Is there any way to ask them?

I never posted on r/GC because I didn't want to create a REDDIT account, but now I'm thinking of doing it just to troll these cowards.

Same with Twitter - the British GC feminist Twitter squad really turned the tide in the UK, so I'm going to get a Twitter account to troll the gendxr speshals and all the corporations, politicians and celebrities who back them.

CLARIFICATION: "those awful, awful banned GCs" was from me, not the r/JKRowling mods - sorry for the misunderstanding.

The section in quotes of my post is what the r/JKRowling mods actually said - and it was bad enough.

Didnt reddit ban the jkr sub that supported her?

r/JoanneRowling was banned for "creating or repurposing a sub to reconstitute or serve the same objective as a previously banned or quarantined subreddit".

I don't visit Reddit since they banned r/GC so don't know.
