Eddie Redmayne Criticizes JK Rowling’s Anti-Trans Tweets

“I disagree with Jo’s comments... My dear transgender friends and colleagues are tired of this constant questioning of their identities, which all too often results in violence and abuse.” 👏🏻👏🏻💕https://t.co/D3soLBrJJF

I was gonna say good, I hope this + Dan’s comments make her feel properly shamed and embarrassed and then I remembered she truly does not give a shit and is probably doubling down even further

[mia316]

I’m surprised her response hasn’t been posted yet, it’s the only tweet on her feed with the comments disabled.

[mia316]

Nvm, I just ontd-doesn’t-read myself.

[joe_pwnz_pete]

It's two white men calling her out so of course, she's gonna handwave it away.

[burntxtoashes]

oops i just posted this

i had a feeling he was gonna say something so i'm glad!

evanna posted a statement too but she was caping for jo a bit too much 😬

[no_urges]

evanna's was way too "omg both sides are so mean!" :\

[burntxtoashes]

Mte. I def didn't agree with some of the hate Jo was getting in terms of saying she should die or whatever, but I also think she could've just posted the first half of her statement, or did what Katie Leung did by posting links instead.

Tbh I wasn't expecting her to say anything 'cos I feel like she's the closest to Jo and feels like she ~owes her the most.

[no_urges]

oh wow, i didn't know she was close to jkr at all, that definitely helps explain some of it

[vanouria]

lmao the crazy part is that this just happened today and is already not the most current jkr/anti-trans news -_-

[colossusx]

i love that both he and daniel radcliffe called her "jo" in their statements. it feels very..."shut up joanne"

[colossusx]

yes, i know, that's her name.

[trekkiepetrelli]

well i hope she knows her two leads think she's a fucking moron terf.

[ms_mmelissa]

I would never want to speak on behalf of the community

Feels comfortable taking those roles though eh?

Is he ever going to apologize for this?

[britneyspears]

i just came in here to say, i guess he doesn't mind sweeping up awards for the community tho

[sandstorm]

Right...he should have called her out, he didn't need to do this. He should have just gotten his awards for Jupiter Ascending and kept quiet.

[zoaster_toaster]

I will forever pretend he got his Oscar for Jupiter Ascending and not for Stephen Hawking.
