    If Salman Rushdie had had this kind of support in the 90s we might be in a different place now. Yes, I am equating Rowling and Rushdie - death threats, book burnings etc from authoritarians attempting to impose their fascist ideology and silence dissenters.https://www.google.co.nz/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8777531/amp/JK-Rowling-receives-support-Ian-McEwan-Griff-Rhys-Jones-amid-transphobia-row.html …

        Although great to see 'writers and actors' finally on the right side of the ledger.

        Yes that’s what I mean. Rushdie had very little support - he was pretty much abandoned and there was a lot of “well he shouldn’t have provoked them” stuff just as with Charlie Hebdo. If writers etc had shown moral courage and held the line then we would be better for it now.

        I wonder why Amelia Johnson Willoughby Bassanio chose to write and compose her masterpieces under the name William Shakespeare.https://youtu.be/S4gxt2zdp0w

        I guess when you put it that way, we should be grateful that society is at least progressing

        Yes perhaps it is. I think at least people now are more alert to the fact that freedom of speech and thought is endangered - from a number of sources. Whereas maybe in the 90s we were more cavalier about it?

        Rushdie was claimed to have blasphemed Mohammed whereas JK Rowling hurts the feelings & maybe the position of trans people. Rushdie faced a fairly solid threat of assassination as a result of the Iranian fatwa - more solid anyway than social media threats.

        What Rushdie faced was much more serious than what Rowling is facing.

        Yes, because there was a powerful state actor leading the charge. Which only further highlights how badly he was let down by people at the time. But in any case I imagine Rowling is taking it pretty seriously, and there are clear parallels.
