JK Rowling is not going to accept the “ignorant” Olive Chapter of Emma Watson after years of rebuttal about the rights of the trans community.
Watson and her “Harry Potter” co-star Daniel Radcliffe have publicly criticized the “Harry Potter” author’s anti-trans views, but the actress recently said she hopes she and Rowling come to understand something.
Rowling, 60, scoffed at his attempt to make the corrections in a long, poignant statement shared via X on Monday.
“There’s no eternal agreement from the actors who played the characters I once created. The idea is as ridiculous as checking with the boss I had at age 21 on what opinions I had recently had,” she says, Watson, 35, Radcliffe, 36, “I have the right to embrace gender identity pathology.”
“But Emma and Dan in particular have made it clear over the past few years that we believe our previous association of professionals has given them a concrete right to criticize me and my views against public criticism.
When Rowling confessed that he had known people since he was 10 and “until recently,” he admitted that “it’s difficult to shake up a certain perspective.”
The author, who experienced poverty a few years before the success of her Harry Potter book, became a film and a billionaire, but Watson claimed that “there is little real-life experience as to how ignorant she is.”
Rowling said the actress “does not need a homeless shelter,” before pointing out that “her ‘public bathroom’ is a single occupying, with security guards standing outside the door,” and “will not be placed in a mixed public hospital ward.”
The author continued to ask rhetorical questions. “Did she have to strip her up in a newly mixed sex changing room in a swimming pool run by the council? Could she need a state-run rape crisis centre that refuses to guarantee all women’s work to share prisons with male rapists identified in women’s prisons?”
Rowling wrote that she was “not a 14-year-old billionaire.” Instead, she “lived in poverty while writing the book that made Emma famous.”
She called Watson’s support for the trans community “the women’s rights trash can” and claimed it would affect “women and girls without her privilege.”
Rowling then recently appeared on the podcast with her vision “deliberately on” vision. Meanwhile, the actress has “has had that experience (“Harry Potter”) with host Jay Shetty and doesn’t really believe in having the love and support I have.
Rowling called the comment ironic, saying that the “Tuck change” was because Watson “recognized that (Rowling)’s totally denounced accusations were no longer fashionable.”
The author concluded her rant. “Adults cannot expect to be (comfortable) in the activist movement that regularly calls the assassination of friends, and assert the right to the love of their former friends, as if the friend were in fact mothers.
“Emma is against me and can actually discuss her feelings about me in public, but I have the same rights and I have finally decided to exercise it.”
Last April, Rowling vowed that he would never forgive Watson or Radcliffe for denounced her beliefs.
Reps for Watson and Radcliffe did not immediately respond to Page 6’s request for comment.
