<p>&#8220;Harry Potter&#8221; author <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/i-was-angry-j-k-rowling-knew-her-trans-comments-would-land-like-a-hand-grenade/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">J.K. Rowling</a> fired right back at a critic who accused her of &#8220;aligning ideologically&#8221; with the brutal former Soviet dictator Josef Stalin.</p>
<p>Rowling has often found herself the target of <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/cnn-responds-to-witch-trials-of-j-k-rowling-podcast-by-burning-the-author-at-the-digital-stake/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hateful posts</a> and threats from radical trans rights activists because they claim her defense of biological women — and their right to have spaces where biological males are not allowed — makes her a TERF (Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist).</p>
<p>But when one critic attacked Rowling in a tweet suggesting that her ideology matched Stalin&#8217;s, the author shot back, tongue in cheek.</p>
<p>&#8220;Very excited to announce that after a long stretch of being Literally Hitler I&#8217;ve become Ideologically Stalin,&#8221; Rowling joked. &#8220;With luck, hard work, and your continued support, I believe I can make Vlad the Impaler by Christmas.&#8221;</p>

<p>The criticism, posted by climate journalist Dave Vetter, appeared to land rather wide of the mark. He was responding to a thread in which Rowling highlighted an argument between left-wing activist Owen Jones and the Communist Party of Britain over gay rights and abortion access.</p>
<p>Rowling, who is decidedly left of center, tweeted, &#8220;Owen Jones versus actual communists is the top quality Twitter content I&#8217;m here for.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Congratulations on aligning ideologically with Stalin, I guess</p>
<p>&mdash; Dave Vetter (@davidrvetter) <a href="https://twitter.com/davidrvetter/status/1641446667097604097?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 30, 2023</a></p></blockquote>
<p>In the argument, Jones noted that Stalin had banned both abortion (1933) and made homosexuality a criminal offense (1934) — while the CPB argued that it was the Communist Party that had been first to stand for gay rights and abortion access.</p>
<p>Vetter followed that by claiming that Rowling, who supports both gay rights and abortion access, somehow aligned with Stalin.</p>
<p>The &#8220;Harry Potter&#8221; creator has also said that she absolutely supports adults who choose to go through gender transition. Where she draws the line is in allowing biological males who self-identify as trans-women to, absent any surgical interventions, insist on being allowed into all-female spaces.</p>
<p>&#8220;Women are the only group, to my knowledge, that are being asked to embrace members of their oppressor class unquestioningly with no caveat,&#8221; Rowling said on a <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/jk-rowling-confronted-critics-past-trans-comments" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recent episode</a> of the podcast series &#8220;The Witch Trials of J.K. Rowling.&#8221; &#8220;Many people of my generation particularly think that we&#8217;re talking about old school transsexuals, people who&#8217;ve been through full sex reassignment because of profound gender dysphoria, and I feel 100% compassion for such people and I would absolutely respect their pronouns — always have, always will — and would want, as I say, to have comfortable, easy lives.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;This [new] movement, though, is pressing for something different, very different,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;This movement has argued, continues to argue, that a man may have had no surgery whatsoever but if he feels himself to be a woman, the door of every woman&#8217;s bathroom, changing room, rape center should be open to him. And I say no. I&#8217;m afraid I say no.&#8221;</p>
