Last night, author J.K. Rowling gloriously called out the Westboro Baptist Church for its blatant homophobia and anti-gay activism:
.@WBCsigns Alas, the sheer awesomeness of such a union in such a place would blow your tiny bigoted minds out of your thick sloping skulls.
And everyone was like, "you want some ice for that burn?":
@jk_rowling @WBCsigns They're gonna need some ice for that COLOSSAL burn.
But some people weren't happy with her response, saying that she shouldn't give the organisation attention because "It's what they want."
@jk_rowling while i am in total agreement with you, giving them attention is counterproductive. that’s what they want.
@jk_rowling @WBCsigns Miss, at what point do we start to ignore people like WBC like the irrelevant trolls that they are?
@FomInfo @jk_rowling dont respond to them thats what they want to make you look bad report them for harassment ----> @WBCsigns
But of course, as usual, Rowling had the perfect response:
I don't care about WBC. I think it's important that scared gay kids who aren't out yet see hate speech challenged. https://t.co/XumjDmEjuw
Nice one, Jo. Dumbledore would be proud.
