Jewish American Heritage Month

Posted By admin on April 20, 2024

Earlier this year, the LGBT news outlet Pink News published an article in which it claimed the persecution of trans people by the Nazis was devastating and that it still echoes down the ages.

However, the article named just five alleged transgender victims of the Holocaust, only one of whom, who was also persecuted for homosexuality, died in a concentration camp.

Two others survived the war, one committed suicide and the fate of the fifth is unknown.

Rowling had last month questioned a claim made by one social media user who said: The Nazis burnt books on trans healthcare and research, why are you so desperate to uphold their ideology around gender?

She replied: I just how. How did you type this out and press send without thinking I should maybe check my source for this, because it mightve just been a fever dream.

Trans activists often accuse gender-critical women of being influenced by far-Right ideology or of having links to neo-Nazis.

Police Scotland has faced criticism for inventing a fictional scenario for a hate crime event in which a gender-critical campaigner called Jo, whom it was claimed was a thinly veiled parody of Rowling, called for trans people to be sent to gas chambers.

The national force has not denied that the character, who was described as having a large social media following, was modelled on the writer, who is called Jo by her friends.

Womens groups accused Police Scotland of reinforcing false tropes that gender-critical people wish to kill trans people and backing bizarre claims that trans people are victims of a modern-day genocide.

Previously, Rowling had raised the prospect of taking legal action against Brown, telling her she would be delighted to meet you in court, Rivkah, to discuss Holocaust denial.

The author has called for those claiming the Nazis specifically targeted trans people, as distinct from gay people, to supply evidence to back up their claims.

Brown, who is a commissioning editor and reporter, said: On 13 March I tweeted that JK Rowling is a Holocaust denier.

That allegation was false and offensive. I have deleted it and apologise to JK Rowling.
