Who got #IStandWithWiley trending on Twitter? Who paid for a "I
Wiley" billboard? Who had to take down their article about the "Wiley controversy" because of a threat from Wiley's lawyers? Which MP tweeted a personal apology to Wiley saying he has the right to free speech?

Oh and by the way the MP who tweeted an apology was Lloyd Russell-Moyle who apologised after he accused her of using her own experience of sexual assault as a justification of transphobia.https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/jun/28/labour-mp-lloyd-russell-moyle-apologises-to-jk-rowling-for-sexual-assault-remark …

Yup, and nobody apologized to Wiley, so, again, the idea that JKR has come under particularly harsh condemnation is, again, absurd

I mean his initial statement was factually true She did, in fact, use her assault as a justification for vilifying a whole group of people who had nothing to do with it That's a fact, we all saw it happen right in front of us

Okay, and do you see anybody like you hanging around on Twitter calling everyone who criticized Wiley an anti-Black racist No, not really Guess JKR does in fact have it better than Wiley, by a lot, and Weetman was wrong

I'm capable of reading news articles online, yes, and absorbing the facts contained therein Am I wrong about those facts? Has Wiley, in fact, gotten off scot free for his offensive remarks in a way that Rowling has not, because his male privilege protected him? Enlighten me

Does Wiley have media outlets trying to create outrage over what he has said so they can get clicks? or does he recieve the hate and abuse that Rowling recieves?

What's it like to live like this guy does? To have reality just slide effortlessly off of you? I bet it's relaxing.

You'd think, but they're always in a huff about something. "I'm successful & comfortable, my family is lovely, & every time I read the Daily Mail my blood pressure goes dangerously high. Obviously the trans women & their allies are the problem here!"
