Irrelevant? I mean she's got a major movie that's gonna be in theatres over the next 4 years or so... I don't think this necessarily equals her ability to be a solid political commentator, though. People should hear her opinion like any other independent citizen but the fact that she's famous shouldn't mean she's any more or less correct than any other person with the right to vote in the world. To her irrelevance though -- I think if anything the fact that people are even listening to her enough to start up entire videos discussing her opinions and/or be featured in the news etc would speak volumes to the fact she's NOT irrelevant. Not yet. She's basically socialite rich now, too, that helps I guess.
Can I ask why people keep using the "irrelevant" argument? I notice people bring it up no matter who is criticising Trump? I'd say Donald Trump was a washed up celebrity before running for President, especially more washed up than JK Rowling, and spoke a thousand times more controversial opinions. Is it possible that Trump supporters' go to the tu que quo fallacy because they have a hard time accepting the reality that they let a monster into the White House?
I still like Harry Potter and its universe. It's kind of a "separate the creator from the creation" thing for me. I hate it when creators get political.
Sadly, when entertainment people (inc JK) discover people like their products, they extend this to meaning that people must also like them. Big mistake! It's an ego driven thing I guess, and in the case of JK...maybe memories of former glory.
J.K. Rowling said this: "For those who think fascism is an edgy accessory..." She was saying that Pewdiepie is a facist. J.K. doesn't get satire. twitter.com/jk_rowling/status/831514821174648833?lang=en
Indeed, the entire magical world was fenced off from that awful muggle society who might actually expect magical people to use their powers for good if they found out they had them. And by the way, there were exactly zero magical Muslims in the Harry Potter world. The closest Rowling got was a set of Hindu twins.
potterbooksinhindi He's not getting involved though. Saying something about an event is not getting involved. However, publicly tweeting that the person that the situation revolves around is a "fascist" is inserting yourself into the situation and is getting involved.
Well newsflash PewDiePie has: - paid two Sri Lankan guys who didn't know English to hold up a "death to all jews" sign -paid someone to dress up as Jesus and say "Hitler did absolutely nothing wrong" -dressed up in nazi regalia and done the nazi greeting on video -used the n-word at least once -encouraged art theft (ok this isn't racist but still shit) What I'm getting at is J.K.Rowling is right to call PewDiePie a racist, because PewDiePie has committed racist actions on several occassions.
the fact that you think any of what you listed there as proof hes racist is actually a big part of the problem. you must see racism everywhere and holy shit i bet your annoying to be around.
How ? How much money are you allowed to have before not being allowed an opinion ? it seems its ok for Rupert Murdoch to own hundreds of newspapers and spread his lies to the world? Why is that ok???
So, someone who survived on welfare for many years has lost touched but the uber rich newspaper barons and privately educated far right conservatives ARE IN TOUCH ! I see.......
Sm4x , starting to become? They have always been like that. It's you who moved forward and changed and can now see and understand better. It also helps that the current political environment has a way of revealing the true face of people.
I dont support trump and many things he does, BUT, rowling is completely out of line, she has no sense of humor and refused to have a proper debate, she just denies others opinions with unneeded aggression. I may not agree with who she is arguing against, but i'd be lying if i said i respected what she was doing.
OH MY THE HIPOCRACY. No Bullshit literally started spouting off about UK politics in the video. And what's wrong with that? People should be allowed to comment on other countries politics, it's free speech ennit?
This is true. They are bringing in resistant forms of TB, and I read the health practitioners in particular from India, often have leprosy from working with people who have this before they get imported to the UK or USA or some other poor Western country. I never choose an Indian doctor or dentist now because of that! Our governments suck right now! They really do not care about we peasants. Our happiness. Safety. We are dirt to them. They just want that open borders around the world agenda to go through! #evil
I don't think people are getting bored of Harry Potter. I think it's just the new movies don't have "Harry Potter and his friends." They made the movies/books. Sadly the new book was bad and possibly will get the Hobbit treatment one day.
Cursed Child would've worked out fine if they cut the whole Delphi angle, or at least made her a better & complicated character. I don't buy Tom & Bella's kid having blue hair, in fact I can't picture there being a kid at all.
Ehi This is someone who leans on the right people. People who probably think something like the Salem witch trials should happen again. I genuinely want someone on the right to defend Ehi here.
Yeah, she didn't have a job and her books were not sold so she went on welfare. That's what it's for... Think of it this way, while she was waiting for another job should she have just sat in bed watching TV? No, she was trying to make something of herself. So pathetic to demonise that.
Rather ironic Ehi, in criticising Rowling of living in a land of witches -and demanding that she should repent (from what?) when you so determinedly cleave to your imaginary magical friends. Way to go Ehi!
MLKKK , not sure if you boys know this, but she has paid a lot more tax in her lifetime than you and a hundred of your ignorant, knuckle dragging, buffoon friends. Just saying, so don't get your knickers in a twist and go crying off to your safe space sweet pea.
I really liked the Harry Potter series when I was a kid and took a lot of crap from class mates for liking it. Now I see the way Rowling is acting and it just feels degrading. I'm trying not to let her personality get in the way of something I liked but it's getting harder and harder to appreciate the Harry Potter series like I used to... it's unfortunate really.
I feel the same way. These days it's really hard to maintain respect for people you looked up to, most commonly with famous people who behave like deranged inmates when you mention Trump.
She just needs to wait for Harry Potter to get embarrassing and dull, and then....the wonder of wonders, the NEXT GENERATION rediscovers her. It'll be worth it. Honestly. If she weren't so wealthy it would be nicer. I thought the books were great, movies too, at least until about Order of the Phoenix. BUT! The books were astounding, and like Disney and vintage Hollywood films, it gains a whole new meaning over time. Elvis used to stay out of political things. "I'm just an entertainer, honey," he said to a reporter asking his opinion on [Vietnam, Jane Fonda, Civil Rights] and he felt his personal opinions were entirely irrelevant to his career, as he was no doubt advised by Col. Tom Parker. Like Jodie Foster, who feels her private life should be no one's business, (or used to) Elvis felt it only ruined his popular image. He was trying to stay away from the Brando thing. He was still a po' Southern white boy at heart who respected his parents and anyone in authority. Oh shoot, I usually only do TLDNR rants on my favorite channels, my apologies.
Remember when she told Piers Morgan to read Harry Potter so that he'd "know the downside of sucking up to the biggest bully in school is getting burned alive"?
Yeah she is very professional at fiction and even comes out with it on her tweets, rather than facts. She is trapped deeply in her liberal bubble and out of touch with reality.
danteworlds.laits.utexas.edu/purgatory/10terrestrialparadise.html Dante saw Beatrice as a saviour, one who removed all evil intentions from him. It is perhaps this idea of her being a force for good that he fell in love with, a force which he believed made him a better person. This is certainly viable, since he does not seem concerned with her appearance-at least not in his writings. He only once describes her complexion, and her "emerald" eyes. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatrice_Portinari Dante's Canto 33 (The Prince's Tale, Chapter 33)
I don't think anyone would have given a shit if she did fall for an edited video, and admitted so. but just erasing the fault like nothing happens just means that she will be right there to attack him again the second she gets the chance.
she would have been there if she did say "oops I fucked up" and isn't this how everyone else acts when they fuck up on tweeter? the amount of times I hear "they deleted the tweet" as an argument
I was deeply sadden when the game couldnt remain neutral & decided to add a muslim student. That's when I threw away all things Harry Potter. They will never again get any money from me.
This woman is so rich yet she still wants more and more why can't people especially the successful ones just be contented with their overabundance of blessings
Cloping Is My Thing Wait, hold on. Do you honestly think Onision won that debate? Really? Mr. Let me look up the definition of collect? Really? Also if you want to see the video just go to her channel it's the latest one.
I loved her, up until she begged for more money by completely changed Pottermore to a buzzfeed that makes you pay for these beautiful "Chapter scenes" that were once free. And her political view that are shoved into your face.
It is why I haven't been on Potttermore in years and have probably had my user name deleted and reused since I haven't been on there in over two years.
Let's not forget: Howard Hughes was also a billionaire. Enough said. Okay, I'll explain that for those who don't get it. Howard Hughes was a billionaire who went crazy and died an early death despite being a billionaire.
Actually no, JK Rowling did not delete her original tweet, it's still up right now. It was the original source "Ansel Herz" who deleted the tweet containing the edited footage.
Meaning she hasn't even shown any sign of acknowledging that she was wrong. Can't she get into legal trouble if she keeps spreading that even after it was proven false?
really she deletes it and she's hiding her guilt she keeps it up and and she's just doesn't acknowledging she was wrong, maybe if you think about this she might not even bothering with deleting and doesn't have a reason to
@Wolf Titan Reading for me the issue isn't if she deletes it or not. Personally I would see it as removing false information before more of the people following her can spread it further. The issue is that she has neither done this nor as stated in the video made a second tweet mentioning the mistake.
J.K. refused to meet my friend who had her whole family massacred infront of her. She was known as the girl who survived, because she was the biggest fan of Harry Potter. While she was recovering from being shot in the head, me and some friends started a petition to get J.K. to meet her. We met the requirements and had the following to back it up and J.K. responded back and was like nah nigga im good, here have an autographed book for her.
I'm glad Change.org helped you sign a petition. Unfortunately, that doesn't change a damned thing. Petitions are nothing more than people agreeing with your story. They don't change laws and nobody has to act upon a petition. If your petition stated that none of those people would ever buy another book, MAYBE she would have thought about it.
No mention of that horrendous Cursed Child play? I think that was her Phantom Menace moment right there. And these Fantastic Beasts movies look terrible. After being let down by how poorly the last books were done on film I refuse to see these FB films in theaters.
I was wondering where that was too, there was so much hype for the Cursed Child but it was just a disappointment to me personally. As for the FB films, they just seem to be a really low scale, watered down Harry Potter. As a fan, I'll probably watch them but the magic isn't there anymore.
I really loved Fantastic Beasts for its characters, Newt and his friends were more unique and interesting than the original HP book characters... The Cursed Child was absolute garbage that I can't believe she put her name on it. I think she's using ghost writers at this point anyway, in Fantastic Beasts there was scenes with a romance that didn't suck ass and we all know JK can't write a charismatic couple that shares chemistry to save her life. She just writes the character being jealous when they're not getting the attention of the person they like and then people just orbit each other. In Fantastic Beasts the romance was actually the best part in the movie, so I'm willing to bet she didn't write it.
I totally agree with you about JK not being able to write romance. I guess she got away with the jealous thing in Harry Potter as all the characters are awkward, angsty teenagers who don't know a lot about romance either. I'm not really into romance stuff but now you mention it, Fantastic Beasts did have some really good scenes. As for ghost writers....I've never really thought about it but it's a possibility, as she's doing more "writing" than she's done in years.
I don't dislike Harry Potter. It just hasn't aged as well as other books I've read. Couple that with Rowling derping around social media and it sours the mood. But yeah, the Dresden Files is super good if you have nothing else to read and you're bored of young adult dystopian books.
Without picking sides, I can say that Rowling isn't what she used to be. The whole Pewdiepie thing back your video completely: She also just read a headline and started ranting about how Felix was a known nazi etc.
Here's my thoughts: trans people should be in the military, not because they're better or deserve a place, but because there are some (trans) people who wish to serve their country in this way and we shouldn't waste people like this.
There are also some people with certain kinds of tattoos who wish to serve, but cannot because of said tattoo. Why should trans people (who are arguably unfit to serve because of their mental condition) be allowed to serve when there are already constrictions on people for factors far more insignificant?
There are dozens of problems they bring with them. First of all, which bathroom are they gonna use? You want your soldier girlfriend to have to go to the toilet and shower together with guys, who pretend to be girls? Guess it's even worse the other way around, not sure how the guys are gonna react to pussy in the shower, after having their balls undrained for months during a mission. I would definitely identify as female to have the permission to shower with the girls. XD Then there's the issue of mental health. Gender dysphoria is a mental illness, that, as someone else pointed out already, often brings with it other mental disorders, like anxiety and depression. Do you want the guy/girl, that should have your back, to just coil together in a foetal position, or randomly start shooting anyone in sight before blowing out their own brains? Funny how people always have an opinion based on "moral principles" without thinking about the real-life consequences for even a second. (And before someone gets at me about this: I'm a philosophy student, and as such, I know that in most cases, there is no definitive truth, or objectively right way of thinking about something. It's all about arguments and grinding out the best perceivable way.) The military should be made up of professionals, the best you can get, to keep your own casualties as low as possible, and not just throwing in anyone who wants to serve as bullet catchers and meatshields. We're not fielding vast armies of peasants like in the dark ages. As a reminder: I'm talking of trends, as you can very rarely state something about a group of people that applies to all of them, except for "They all have to breathe." or "They cast a shadow."
I used to really laugh at Phylis Diller, and Carol Burnett, but Schumer and Silverstein couldn't make a roomful of fourth grade boys laugh with a whoopy cushion.
+No Bullshit So it was my tweet that blew up after correcting JK Rowling. This led to PJW and The Blaze posting about it. I don't like posting links in other people's comment sections, but I'm on twitter @scratch_point if you'd like to see yourself. Alternatively, I made a video talking about my perspective on what happened if you're interested. Just a minor correction though: Rowling hasn't deleted her tweet, what happened was the guy that posted the "cleverly" edited video clip that she RTed deleted his post after being flooded by people with my tweet calling out the fake. So, she has still yet to acknowledge she is wrong in the slightest.
It will never get like that here in northern Ireland some people are still fighting over catholic and protestant. If the muslims try there shit here they will be wiped out
+Shawn Watson dude when was the last time you walked down a london street. Because as someone who lives in london and visits the inner city and cbd regions quite often, this sentiment is fucking retarded.
This is a shit channel run by an idiot who thinks he's actually intelligent. Not to mention the channel is a copy of NLBS (now defunct) Undoomed, and Atheism-Is-Unstoppable.
+Sarcastic Squash there is a small amount of libs that I do like though, just wouldn't like been close to this new 'breed' of liberals that are like Miss Rowling.
I've never really given much shit about Rowling myself. I do however love Fantastic Beasts and look forward to more. I however still have zero interest in her. That need to be so vocal on twitter is just... well I understand perfectly well why people get sick of her. I'll focus on the new movies rather than her.
The UK hasn't taken unlimited muslims in as immigrants. This was one of the primary reasons Brexit occurred and the Calais jungle got so bad. However we already had too many before this all kicked off.
Commander Skorr, The Bloodbringer Sorry, how do you know she isnt likable!? Shes an icon because she got children reading and has donated a large percentage of her money to charities and doesnt live a tax free exile life like various so called 'British' sport stars .
Ataakaari well if you're enforcing a foreign oppresive law and the actual policd and goverments isnt doing anything to stop you from doing it? Then yes
Well I expected something better but this is biased, I have my issues with J.K. Rowling certainly she make these kind of stupid statements on social politics that many rich people hypocritically often do but the thing of defending the discrimination of trans people is bollocks; it's a right and because it isn't textually written in the constitution doesn't mean that it isn't in the interpretation of it, common sense and basic civil rights issue that shouldn't be an issue.
5:18 Well, I think you're pretty funny and insightful a lot of the time even though I disagree with some of your positions, and _I'm_ a liberal. What I am *not,* though, is an SJW or a regressive... and that _might_ be why liberals don't flock to your channel if that is indeed the case. Attributing this crap to "liberals" as a monolithic group all the time is kind of like holding up the Westboro Baptist Church as a typical example of a Christian congregation. I mean, you _do_ know that we also call out the SJWs on their bullshit too, right? It may not be as apparent in the mainstream media right now since they drank the regressive Kool-Aid years ago, but there are plenty of liberals here on TH-cam who are very anti-feminist, anti-identity politics, and anti-SJW.
Well I may be under Shari'a law, and be under danger of terrorist attack every week apparently, if I get hurt or injured, God forbid, at least I don't have to pay for healthcare.
People will never lose interest in Harry Potter, just like how the Star Wars universe and Marvel universe still thrives. I love JK Rowling and she is allowed her opinion just like everyone else.
As a person who frequently visits London, I've never noticed it. Oh right, that;s because it's not and this guy doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.
She's rich of course she doesn't mind migrants. She can afford gates, security, etc. It costs them nothing & affects them in no way.
Those who are most in favour of open borders are always those who live the furthest from the consequences.
They get to cherry pick the best, most well behaved migrants and use them as cheap cleaners/handymen/plumbers/builders etc.
Henrik Jørgensen Isn't that the truth.
With this comment you're implying that the majority of immigrants is a criminal, which is just as bad.
Criminal are majority immigrant or descendant of immigrant here in France.
JK Rowling is quite irrelevant now. I think most of us can confirm that

Cry me a river.
I still like Harry Potter and its universe. It's kind of a "separate the creator from the creation" thing for me. I hate it when creators get political.
But Harry Potter is actually very political...
Same politics and entertainment like harry potter should stay separated
Like with musicians and their views.
I think when people say, "Separate politics from whatever," they mean separate contemporary politics. For example, Marvel comics making *Trump* Modok.
Sadly, when entertainment people (inc JK) discover people like their products, they extend this to meaning that people must also like them. Big mistake! It's an ego driven thing I guess, and in the case of JK...maybe memories of former glory.

This is certainly viable, since he does not seem concerned with her appearance-at least not in his writings. He only once describes her complexion, and her "emerald" eyes.

I don't think anyone would have given a shit if she did fall for an edited video, and admitted so. but just erasing the fault like nothing happens just means that she will be right there to attack him again the second she gets the chance.
Zachary Hagan No one in the U.S. cares what she thinks. She's totally irrelevant!
she would have been there if she did say "oops I fucked up"
and isn't this how everyone else acts when they fuck up on tweeter?
the amount of times I hear "they deleted the tweet" as an argument
The movies were never great to begin with.
Even the books were never hreatto begin with.
@@Cherry-qx6rk you don't have to shit on a book series you yourself don't like. Plenty of others do like it so calling it not great is some bull
I'm assuming hreatto was great to
@jason o'neill putting it as a matter of fact thing makes it seem... rude.
Didn't watch the movies or read the books.

Blaire White gave a pretty good argument for the trans military thing in my opinion. Because she used logic which is something that sjw's lack.
Blaire White? the one who got their ass kicked by Onision on her own channel?
Oh, i need to see this, you got a link or something?
Cloping Is My Thing Wait, hold on. Do you honestly think Onision won that debate? Really? Mr. Let me look up the definition of collect? Really? Also if you want to see the video just go to her channel it's the latest one.
I love Harry Potter and the Fantastic Beasts are pretty good. But, I am disappointed in Rowling. :(
I though this was about JK Rowling calling all the Harry Potter characters gay. Not “politics”
Where my hila kleiners at, whaaaa whaaaaaat!

BROOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I loved her, up until she begged for more money by completely changed Pottermore to a buzzfeed that makes you pay for these beautiful "Chapter scenes" that were once free. And her political view that are shoved into your face.
It is why I haven't been on Potttermore in years and have probably had my user name deleted and reused since I haven't been on there in over two years.

Let's not forget: Howard Hughes was also a billionaire. Enough said.
Okay, I'll explain that for those who don't get it. Howard Hughes was a billionaire who went crazy and died an early death despite being a billionaire.
Red Burtley 70 isn't that early though
Mr. Generic
For a billionare it is
Red Burtley your pretty ignorant aren't you.

Actually no, JK Rowling did not delete her original tweet, it's still up right now. It was the original source "Ansel Herz" who deleted the tweet containing the edited footage.
Meaning she hasn't even shown any sign of acknowledging that she was wrong. Can't she get into legal trouble if she keeps spreading that even after it was proven false?
really she deletes it and she's hiding her guilt she keeps it up and and she's just doesn't acknowledging she was wrong, maybe if you think about this she might not even bothering with deleting and doesn't have a reason to
@Wolf Titan Reading for me the issue isn't if she deletes it or not. Personally I would see it as removing false information before more of the people following her can spread it further. The issue is that she has neither done this nor as stated in the video made a second tweet mentioning the mistake.
im a joke better make an early

I don't like j. K herself but I love the Harry Potter franchise
Neither for me
J.K. refused to meet my friend who had her whole family massacred infront of her. She was known as the girl who survived, because she was the biggest fan of Harry Potter. While she was recovering from being shot in the head, me and some friends started a petition to get J.K. to meet her. We met the requirements and had the following to back it up and J.K. responded back and was like nah nigga im good, here have an autographed book for her.
Evidence or it didn't happen.
So? A petition doesn't mean shit lol. You "met the requirements" lol give me whatever you're smoking.
A news story?
I'm glad Change.org helped you sign a petition. Unfortunately, that doesn't change a damned thing. Petitions are nothing more than people agreeing with your story. They don't change laws and nobody has to act upon a petition. If your petition stated that none of those people would ever buy another book, MAYBE she would have thought about it.
How can you recover from being shot in the head?
No mention of that horrendous Cursed Child play? I think that was her Phantom Menace moment right there. And these Fantastic Beasts movies look terrible. After being let down by how poorly the last books were done on film I refuse to see these FB films in theaters.
I was wondering where that was too, there was so much hype for the Cursed Child but it was just a disappointment to me personally. As for the FB films, they just seem to be a really low scale, watered down Harry Potter. As a fan, I'll probably watch them but the magic isn't there anymore.
I really loved Fantastic Beasts for its characters, Newt and his friends were more unique and interesting than the original HP book characters... The Cursed Child was absolute garbage that I can't believe she put her name on it. I think she's using ghost writers at this point anyway, in Fantastic Beasts there was scenes with a romance that didn't suck ass and we all know JK can't write a charismatic couple that shares chemistry to save her life. She just writes the character being jealous when they're not getting the attention of the person they like and then people just orbit each other. In Fantastic Beasts the romance was actually the best part in the movie, so I'm willing to bet she didn't write it.
I totally agree with you about JK not being able to write romance. I guess she got away with the jealous thing in Harry Potter as all the characters are awkward, angsty teenagers who don't know a lot about romance either. I'm not really into romance stuff but now you mention it, Fantastic Beasts did have some really good scenes. As for ghost writers....I've never really thought about it but it's a possibility, as she's doing more "writing" than she's done in years.
Phantom menace was 10 times better
Yeah, but to be fair, she wasn't the one who wrote The Cursed Child. Her name is stamped on the cover, but that's a PR trick.
Loved the Star Wars part! Hahah
Jesus Christ I guess you GOTTA love thing.

I like Harry Potter, not JK Rowling.
The Dresden Files is a pretty good book series if you liked Harry Potter. Both star a wizard named Harry, only Harry Dresden is 20x more likable.
ocarinaplaya I've heard of it. Is it really good?
ocarinaplaya do you really dislike harry potter from the books? from the movies i would understand it but not from the books
I don't dislike Harry Potter. It just hasn't aged as well as other books I've read. Couple that with Rowling derping around social media and it sours the mood.
But yeah, the Dresden Files is super good if you have nothing else to read and you're bored of young adult
dystopian books.
Jk should have used her name to apologies
Without picking sides, I can say that Rowling isn't what she used to be. The whole Pewdiepie thing back your video completely: She also just read a headline and started ranting about how Felix was a known nazi etc.
As someone who grew up inspired by J.K. Rowling and her work on the Harry Potter series, her current behavior breaks my heart.

Here's my thoughts: trans people should be in the military, not because they're better or deserve a place, but because there are some (trans) people who wish to serve their country in this way and we shouldn't waste people like this.
There are also some people with certain kinds of tattoos who wish to serve, but cannot because of said tattoo. Why should trans people (who are arguably unfit to serve because of their mental condition) be allowed to serve when there are already constrictions on people for factors far more insignificant?
don't want a transmission to have my back in the battle field
Tommy Biggers Yeah man what if they... Slip
Pickles Kenney Thank you. Well said.
There are dozens of problems they bring with them. First of all, which bathroom are they gonna use? You want your soldier girlfriend to have to go to the toilet and shower together with guys, who pretend to be girls? Guess it's even worse the other way around, not sure how the guys are gonna react to pussy in the shower, after having their balls undrained for months during a mission.
I would definitely identify as female to have the permission to shower with the girls. XD
Then there's the issue of mental health. Gender dysphoria is a mental illness, that, as someone else pointed out already, often brings with it other mental disorders, like anxiety and depression. Do you want the guy/girl, that should have your back, to just coil together in a foetal position, or randomly start shooting anyone in sight before blowing out their own brains?
Funny how people always have an opinion based on "moral principles" without thinking about the real-life consequences for even a second. (And before someone gets at me about this: I'm a philosophy student, and as such, I know that in most cases, there is no definitive truth, or objectively right way of thinking about something. It's all about arguments and grinding out the best perceivable way.)
The military should be made up of professionals, the best you can get, to keep your own casualties as low as possible, and not just throwing in anyone who wants to serve as bullet catchers and meatshields. We're not fielding vast armies of peasants like in the dark ages.
As a reminder: I'm talking of trends, as you can very rarely state something about a group of people that applies to all of them, except for "They all have to breathe." or "They cast a shadow."
Rowling better be JK.

God this makes me so sad...I used to look up to J.K. Rowling, and I wanted to be an author just like her...
Video starts at 8:55
+No Bullshit So it was my tweet that blew up after correcting JK Rowling. This led to PJW and The Blaze posting about it. I don't like posting links in other people's comment sections, but I'm on twitter @scratch_point if you'd like to see yourself. Alternatively, I made a video talking about my perspective on what happened if you're interested. Just a minor correction though: Rowling hasn't deleted her tweet, what happened was the guy that posted the "cleverly" edited video clip that she RTed deleted his post after being flooded by people with my tweet calling out the fake. So, she has still yet to acknowledge she is wrong in the slightest.
Unfortunately that seems to be the case.
"London, who's half way under sharia law" WHAT THE FUCK
I had the same reaction.
Northern Ireland better stage an uprising against Britain pretty soon, because it'll be a lifetime before i'm under Muslim law.
It will never get like that here in northern Ireland some people are still fighting over catholic and protestant. If the muslims try there shit here they will be wiped out
+Shawn Watson dude when was the last time you walked down a london street. Because as someone who lives in london and visits the inner city and cbd regions quite often, this sentiment is fucking retarded.
This is a shit channel run by an idiot who thinks he's actually intelligent. Not to mention the channel is a copy of NLBS (now defunct) Undoomed, and Atheism-Is-Unstoppable.
honestly i think its annoying that she gives out movies but no real book
I used to like her books/movies I still do. I just pretend she isn't a leftist while reading/watching them.
Yukio Kimitake 由紀夫三島 okay not liking someone because they lean left is ridiculous and a small minded way to act
+Sarcastic Squash there is a small amount of libs that I do like though, just wouldn't like been close to this new 'breed' of liberals that are like Miss Rowling.

Uptomyknees "Human beings". Yeah, right.
I've never really given much shit about Rowling myself. I do however love Fantastic Beasts and look forward to more. I however still have zero interest in her. That need to be so vocal on twitter is just... well I understand perfectly well why people get sick of her. I'll focus on the new movies rather than her.
I like jk R🅾wling

Don't we all love her jk
you shoulda added the rowling at the end. like spaced out. but this is still genious
I wonder if you could make a gun that could be disguised as a banana
Hocus pocus your career has vanished!
I miss the days when she had a Twitter but only tweeted once a year with "Pen and paper are my priority"...
The UK hasn't taken unlimited muslims in as immigrants. This was one of the primary reasons Brexit occurred and the Calais jungle got so bad. However we already had too many before this all kicked off.
"Viewers like you." Thought I was watching PBS
No one:
JK Rowling: u r giey.
JK Rowling needs to stay out of politics and keep making books instead
She's nuts
We are losing interest in "Americanised" HP movies.
J K is an embarrassment to my country as are most of our famous people. I'm glad you put the great PJW in here for good balance.
" great PJW", who the fuck is this person ? Never heard of him/her. Jus tlike 99.9% of the UK !!
although JK Rowling isn't very likeable when it comes to politicians, she made a big british icon.
Commander Skorr, The Bloodbringer Sorry, how do you know she isnt likable!? Shes an icon because she got children reading and has donated a large percentage of her money to charities and doesnt live a tax free exile life like various so called 'British' sport stars .
Robert Slade your facist friend lives in the USA, where 250,000 children where forced to get married under the age of 16 !! From 2000 to 2010.
watch the video again :)
8:58 feels like it came out of nowhere lmao
London isn't under sharia law. I would know seeing as I live in Camberwell.
This guy is a fear monger. A propagandist piece of shit that's mistook conspiracy for being: 'reasonable.'

Man, i thought the British understood jokes.

found out the second time I watched it
Who was that girl at the end of the vid....for research purposes
I noticed when I was just a brat, I thought she was good, but now growing up changed my opinion on everyone and I see what their true character is.
#LateNotificationSquad
NOTICE ME SENPAI!!
Nico Nico Nii!!!
Well I expected something better but this is biased, I have my issues with J.K. Rowling certainly she make these kind of stupid statements on social politics that many rich people hypocritically often do but the thing of defending the discrimination of trans people is bollocks; it's a right and because it isn't textually written in the constitution doesn't mean that it isn't in the interpretation of it, common sense and basic civil rights issue that shouldn't be an issue.
There's a cesspool on the left and a cesspool on the right. This is the right hand one...
5:18 Well, I think you're pretty funny and insightful a lot of the time even though I disagree with some of your positions, and _I'm_ a liberal. What I am *not,* though, is an SJW or a regressive... and that _might_ be why liberals don't flock to your channel if that is indeed the case.
Attributing this crap to "liberals" as a monolithic group all the time is kind of like holding up the Westboro Baptist Church as a typical example of a Christian congregation. I mean, you _do_ know that we also call out the SJWs on their bullshit too, right? It may not be as apparent in the mainstream media right now since they drank the regressive Kool-Aid years ago, but there are plenty of liberals here on TH-cam who are very anti-feminist, anti-identity politics, and anti-SJW.
I never liked her books anyway.
Me too never found them interesting
Well I may be under Shari'a law, and be under danger of terrorist attack every week apparently, if I get hurt or injured, God forbid, at least I don't have to pay for healthcare.
People will never lose interest in Harry Potter, just like how the Star Wars universe and Marvel universe still thrives.
I love JK Rowling and she is allowed her opinion just like everyone else.
who cares.
Peter Hunsader Everybody that has half a braincell
Thanks! I'm glad I have more brain cells then just 1/2 of one.

I love that she blocks "haters" on Twitter. What about Rowling saying Dumbledore was gay and then going back on that when the new movie came out
Jk is a jk
"London halfway under sharia law"
Huh?
As a person who frequently visits London, I've never noticed it. Oh right, that;s because it's not and this guy doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.
