Remember, the pitchfork and torch mob first started going after JKR because she liked a tweet they disapproved of! IIRC, the "bad tweet" JKR liked was from Magdalene Berns, or it linked to one of her videos.

I also recall for certain that when the pile-on started, some ageist nitwit pipsqueak from JKR's literary agency rushed in to "defend" JKR and try to calm the waters by volunteering the opinion that the Harry Potter author must have liked the tweet accidentally due to not understanding the buttons/symbols on Twitter, implying JKR too much of a doofus to know how to use tech & apps. Or, the "helpful" person added, JKR might have liked the "bad tweet" intentionally but mistakenly coz she must have been having a "senior moment" that caused her to be so addled and confused that she didn't know what she was doing.
