J.K. Rowling has generated new controversy in the United Kingdom, this time after launching severe criticism against David Tennant, who played Barty Crouch Jr. in the Harry Potter films.
According to Deadline, this happened after the actor was in the British LGBT Awards, where he attacked those who criticize trans rights.
“They are a small group of whiny bastards who “They are on the wrong side of history, and they will all be gone soon.” he said in an interview.
According to the aforementioned media, Rowling expressed herself in her ‘X’ account, describing Tennant as a “Taliban of the genre”, However, he later deleted the comment.
The writer revealed other tweets the next day, citing one of the artist’s sayings and showing her annoyance.
“This man is talking about rape survivors who want women-only care, about nurses who are currently suing their hospitals for forcing them to change in front of a man,” she said in response to the phrase that “they will disappear soon.”
She continued: “Of the girls and women who lose sporting opportunities to men and of the women incarcerated with convicted sex offenders.”
The author closed her critique by saying: “For a man who is supposedly a model of compassion and tolerance, surely he wants many people to cease to exist.”
New impasse for JK Rowling
It should be noted that, several months ago, JK Rowling had an encounter with the actors Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson, also from Harry Potter.
This after both expressed positions in favor of trans people in the United Kingdom.
