Leftist anger and hatred towards JK Rowling will never not be funny to me. She was a progressive icon. Then, she defended a woman who was wrongly terminated. Now, she is the Head Transphobe In Charge. And today marks the five-year anniversary of the author being on the right side of history.

Rowling marked the occasion where it all started. On Twitter.

But how did we get here? There was a time when leftists were identifying as different Hogwarts sects to declare how they were going to "resist" against Donald Trump. Today you might as well call Rowling "Voldermort."

It all started back in 2019. A woman named Maya Foster was fired for having the wrong opinion.

Maya Forstater, 45, lost her job as a tax expert at the Centre for Global Development in March this year after she was accused of publishing “offensive” tweets questioning government proposals to allow people to self-identify as the opposite sex.

However, in the landmark judgment published yesterday, employment Judge Tayler decided Ms Forstater’s view “is incompatible with human dignity and fundamental rights of others”.

If Ms Forstater had won the case, it would have legally prevented employers from dismissing staff for expressing the “offensive” view that there are only two biological sexes.

Rowling sided with Foster and her rights as a woman to hold her own opinions.

And that's it. That one tweet. Rowling is persona non-grata amongst her former allies over that one tweet. Or, the tweet and the fact activists weren't able to cyberbully Rowling into apologizing and begging for forgiveness.

• JK Rowling tells Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson where to stick their apologies for "cheering on the transitioning of minors"
• JK Rowling trolls Scotland's new "hate crime" law with epic April Fool's thread on who is now considered a woman
• JK Rowling Unleashed: Asking A Women To Refer To Her Rapist By “Preferred Pronouns” Is ‘State-Sanctioned Abuse’

Rowling who, mind you, is in no way, shape, or form a conservative. But because of one tweet, she is a literal Slytherin. Or, I guess she's a Slytherin. Anything I know about the books I know from Dwight Shrute.

Rowling has a single opinion the left disagrees with, and they hate her. That will never not be funny.

Now to try and remember how this all started with Dave Chappelle and Jordan Peterson.
