That's just stupid, they don't hate her because of the evil misogony Bogeyman. They simply hate everyone not giving them 110% devotion.

There is a special vitriol for women who speak out. John Cleese went terven recently and he hasn't faced the kind of backlash JK Rowling received when she just liked a few tweets or posted something innocuous in support of Maya Forstater and the existence of biological sex.

Seriously, if people think Rowling is getting cancelled because of misogyny need to re-evaluate their worldview. They're cancelling her because she's not bending the knee. They tried the exact same thing with Stephen King over his diversity comments.

This is about being under the boot of a movement for political power, I'm not saying that the movement is about women's empowerment. But if you think this is all about "I hate women" you need to take off your feminist lens.
