Despite what people think of her politics, J.K. Rowling has long advocated against this invasion of ‘trans’ people into women’s spaces.
And for that, Imane Khelif, the XY Algerian boxer, named her in his lawsuit.
Elon Musk was also mentioned.
Remember, anything short of bowing the knee is viewed as ‘hate speech’ and ‘intolerance’.
But a new era is upon us.
My guess is that this lawsuit will backfire.

Variety reports:
J.K. Rowling and Elon Musk have both been named in a criminal complaint filed to French authorities over alleged “acts of aggravated cyber harassment” against Algerian boxer and newl crowned Olympic champion Imane Khelif.
Nabil Boudi, the Paris-based attorney of Khelif, confirmed to Variety that both figures were mentioned in the body of the complaint, posted to the anti-online hatred center of the Paris public prosecutor’s office on Friday.
The lawsuit was filed against X, which under French law means that it was filed against unknown persons. That “ensure[s] that the ‘prosecution has all the latitude to be able to investigate against all people,” including those who may have written hateful messages under pseudonyms, said Boudi. The complaint nevertheless mentions famously controversial figures.

So, progress is when a man take’s away a woman’s Olympic win?
Where are all the feminist now?
🚨BREAKING: Imane Khelif (XY) dominated World Champion Lang Liu (XX) to win an Olympic gold medal.
Let me repeat that: a MALE has taken a WOMAN'S Olympic gold.
This is what they call this "progress." It's the ultimate betrayal of fairness, safety, and women by @iocmedia. pic.twitter.com/pHw1Ve4uTF
