    the only reason she apologised was because JK Rowling threatened to sue her because the UK is a fucked up country where any nineteeneightyfour 1984 wrongspeak nineteeneightyfour can get you taken to court and bled dry from legal fees under our fucked up libel laws

        yeah, as much as jk rowling goes on about how free speech needs to be utterly protected, she's constantly threatening to sue people who criticise her to shut them up, basically lays bare how all she wants """free speech""" for is to post increasongly fascistic rants on her twitter without criticism
