It's funny I'd never have even heard of these books if they weren't screeching about it. If anything controversy will just drive sales and market the book farther.

She's even written it under some male pseudonym Robert Galbraith which I find extra funny. Like if you ever encounter one of these tools in real life you can just play dumb and be like "I didn't know Robert had transitioned to male, I think it's horrible how much hate you have for him, you keep dead naming him constantly it's so rude, I won't associate with a trabsphobe." And then just leave.

lol. It's the same for me with Hogwarts legacy. Bro your screeching about how much of a meanie JK is and to not support it just made me aware of the game and think it looked interesting.

Reckon we could get them to stfu by accusing them of faking outrage as a marketing tool and if they really hated her they wouldn't mention it?

My virtue signalling is having the opposite effect as intended and I should stop it's benefiting Roger Galbraith? Uh no shut up sweaty and keep your clearly Transphobic opinions to yourself bigot. The intended effect of virtue signaling is to show how much better a person I am than all you lowly troglodytes. That effect is clearly working as you're responding to me despite being a gross reactionary bigfoot facist racist speciest veganist artist nazist closeted skoliosexual degenerative form of TERF scum. This isn't about you.

That said it would probably be pretty funny to try. Though I usually go with the more light and friendly "Oh I wasn't aware there was a new book cool thanks for telling me I'll buy it on Amazon right now"

Nooooooo! You can't it's bad.

Have you read it?

No.

Then how can you know it's bad?

Twitter said so.

Lol that website Trump likes? Why you believe anything on there?

hahaha I love it. Have def been tempted to do that before. "Wow thanks for letting me know about this, just preordered my copy :)" you know just letting them know you ONLY know of it because of them making a fuss.

Twitter hasn't read it either and the last hullabaloo they made was over nothing soooo.... Don't think they realise that it makes them less credible. I certainly wouldn't believe it if they're saying that because ffs twitter has called dogs transphobic before lol.
