People talking about

I must have been in an alternate world when you allowed
#RIPJKRowling to trend

Then why did you let
#RIPJKRowling, a literal death wish hashtag, trend? Or does this policy only apply to Trump? https://twitter.com/TwitterComms/status/1312167835783708672 … -

I don't think I'm revealing too much of the plot of Troubled Blood when I say this... The character that earned JK Rowling the
#RIPJKRowling campaign (by virtue of wearing a wig and women's coat) also pretended to be gay to access victims. Not one suggestion of homophobia
