anyway heres the article, he was bedridden for 5 weeks and continues to suffer from fatigue and gastrointestinal issues
Your second thought has always gotta be “this is a corporation trying to make us ridicule their victim, whats the real story here?”.
one time I had a dream that I unlocked a secret never-before-discovered achievement in Disco Elysium by squeezing into various nooks and crannies and got a special copotype called “Crevice Cop: seek out and inhabit crevices like some kind of man-spider” and I thought yeah!!! man-spider!!! crevice cop!!! this game GETS me!!!
and then I woke up to find that I had fallen partially down into the gap between my partner’s bed and the wall and was horrifically contorted and in agonizing bodily pain from sleeping in a position only comfortable to a brown recluse
youre telling me a ham fisted this metaphor??
Funny what a little bit of Holocaust denialism will get you trending with.
Also, worth noting that calling it “Holocaust denialism,” as Aye and Alejandra Carabello (and myself) have, is not hyperbole.
JK Rowling is denying that trans people were targetted by the Nazis, and promoting the tweets of known anti-trans activists screeching that any insistence that we were is “the LGBTQ+ lobby” revising history. That is, by a 2022 ruling on a case regarding similar tweets by the Regional Court of Cologne, (translation) “a denial of Nazi crimes.”
She is, by German court precedent, quite literally engaging in an element of Holocaust denial.
In case anyone is unfamiliar with the Nazis’ destruction of both gay and trans culture in Germany, Germany had a sympathetic gay and trans health clinic in the early 1900s. The Nazis destroyed it and burned literature studying homosexuality, gender noncomformity, and what we now understand to be transgenderness or transexuality. This took place only 3 months after Hitler came into power.
In addition to homosexuality, crossdressing was illegal under the Hitler regime even though trans people had (albeit limited) rights prior to his rise to power. And before anyone says it, the trans holocaust victims we talk about weren’t misidentified crossdressers, drag artists, or gender-nonconforming people. One trans woman, Liddy Barcroff, died in a concentration camp for her “crossdressing” after telling arresting police “my sense of my sex is fully and completely that of a woman.” The queer community, all of us, suffered huge losses both in individuals and in education and understanding during the Holocaust. Denying any part of that is offensive and dangerous.
This makes me so sad and also I’m trying to remember if any of the Discworld books dealt with late stage capitalism

having thick hair and going to get your hair cut is just having to listen to your hair dresser repeat over and over again how millions of people would commit despicable crimes to have your hair
