Jessie Gender's account on Bluesky suspended seemingly because she said "I also wish ill will to JK Rowling" https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:zy7ifa3dmd46dcrbjkgkg2xz/post/3lwiszke4bk2x

Joining in to wish JK Rowling ill will here in solidarity https://bsky.app/profile/dustyweb.bsky.social/post/3lwjhfzebtk2i
I encourage everyone to wish ill will upon JK Rowling, here and, if you have a Bluesky account, please do so there as well. If you get suspended, please share that information here.
@cwebber I feel like they're playing through Moderation Mayhem and taking the middle path every time. https://moderatormayhem.engine.is/
There's really no way to balance good moderation + low expenses + scale + free.
@Gnuxie I don't think it's an incitement to violence. I've never heard the phrase be that way. I think it's like a kind of curse-from-a-distance: I hope bad things befall you, that your luck turns against you, that you trip over tree roots from your own clumsiness and bad karma
And so it begins...
@cwebber i wish ten ill wills upon JK Rowling. ten absolutely sick wills. wills that will puke in her shoes and then make her clean it up.
JK Rowling, I curse you, from a distance. I will not personally harm you, because that's not the kind of person I am. But I wish you bad luck: that your bad karma eats at you, that your shows and books sell poorly, that your bad reputation catch up to you in the general public's eye.
@cwebber
I wish I'll towards not only J.K. Rowling, but every transphobe. As David Lynch said, fix your hearts transphobes, or die.
@cwebber what a weird rule.
@cwebber I hope her nostrils become permanently mildly congested.
@cwebber
Also I hope her tea is always the wrong temperature and that she steps on a Lego.
That rule looks might be recent or added on specifically for JKR "wishes".
@cwebber do you have a link to Jessie's original post? The screenshot looks similar to facebook or something
@cwebber
I do love how everyone is all Surprised Pikachu that the centralized platform run by a big company is behaving like a centralized platform run by a big company.
May she live to see her books forgotten and her legacy reduced to only her bigotry.
(I'm not on BS, but this popped into my head, so there you go.)
I, too, wish I'll will upon JK Rowling. and i wish good luck will happen to all she wants to harm.

@cwebber
you their sleeves dip in the water when they wash their hands today
@katzenberger @cwebber Yes, that's me. I've known Kaliya for a long time and didn't know about her views on trans rights at that time.
@katzenberger I can confirm that @evan didn't know, since @evan and I talked about the situation, and Evan responded thoughtfully as information became available.
@cwebber """decentralized""" btw
@cwebber Let the games begin..

@cwebber I don’t generally wish ill on people, but I’ll make an exception for JK Rowling.
@cwebber wow you mean this Jessie Gender? @jessiegender
Everyone follow her over here on the fedi
I just did.
I can wish ill of JK Rowling all day...
and I will
@cwebber i'll say it then: somebody should kill JK Rowling lol
@cwebber I hope she stubs her toe every time she has an anti-trans thought.
@cwebber I'm glad I never signed up. Seems just as bad as twitter.
Rowling
@cwebber I just say that I'll wish JKR a bad permanent mold in every place she lives.
I wish JK Rowling high cholesterol levels
Just posted my own ill wishes to JKR. My account is empty, though and has no real people following it. I only created it as a test account so I could check on Fediverse bridging. Now we will see what happens.
One of my favorite curses, which I wholeheartedly wish upon JK Rowling ..
May the fleas of one thousand camels infest your armpits.
@cwebber May JK Rowling's sock keep dropping low and underwear riding high causing her great discomfort. Oh, and many other unspoken ills.
@cwebber That’s the #authoritarian #conservative playbook: They break all the rules, but demand you still play by them.
Just another prime example of #wilhoitslaw: The core value of conservatism is that there is an in-group of people who are protected by the rules, and another one who are bound by them but not protected.
Instead of having rule of law, you have rule by law and immunity from persecution. Instead of starting from what, they begin from who and make up the rest.
May she step on a Lego every time she's barefoot, may every drawer in her kitchen get stuck (praise be to Anoia), may birds poop on her head when she's out walking, may every umbrella turn inside out when it rains, and may every fly nearby land in her food.
zomg violating BlueSky content policy!
@cwebber I also direct ill will to JK Rowling.
It is more a focused reflection of her own animus than any original animosity.
@cwebber and now we wait

@cwebber may JKR never have working batteries, usb keys that fail to fit until a few attempts and uncooperative door keys when trying to open her front door
@cwebber the worst thing about bsky being like this is that “this isn’t the kind of vibe we want, you’re not on bluesky” Yasseen copypasta won’t make sense anymore
(/s)
@cwebber May JK Rowling's "Sticky-keys" be set to two-presses.
So, @cwebber, if one quotes Melville on Bluesky to say: “from hell's heart I stab at thee”, JK Rowling, that gets account suspension? 🤦
This seems classic selective enforcement prioritizing complaints of the wealthy…
Speaking of which, while JK Rowling is nothing but vitriol, the psychology of such behavior is morbidly fascinating: it's as if JK couldn't stand being liked and insisted on finding a way to be widely hated.
So strange, disturbing, sad…& directly harmful to the trans community.
@cwebber There is not a human alive -- or dead, for that matter, or even yet to be born -- who has never wished harm upon someone else. It is, as Clarence Darrow argued, human instinct, part of our primitive neurology which we cannot escape, only discipline ourselves not to ACT on. If you kick everyone off who has this instinct, then you must obviously kick off EVERYONE, and then what are you left with?
People of the future will laugh heartily at our ham-handed attempts to manage all this.
@cwebber I sometimes find myself wishing she would come to her senses and stop hobnobbing with the fascists and then I get angry over the latest shitty thing and start wishing her and all her projects ill. 😡
@cwebber I'm tempted to dust off my otherwise dormant Bluesky account just for this
@cwebber I also wish ill to JK Rowling
@cwebber I’m on it.
@cwebber I wish that JKR (and anyone who thinks it's their job to make other people's life harder,) a completely friendless existence until they realise how much of a dick they are being.
@cwebber JK Rowling wrote of characters she did not understand and her ignorance has defiled them.
@cwebber let's see how this works.

@cwebber what she had done, though?
@cwebber Bluesky and X combined are the archetypal example of the "horseshoe theory" at work IMO
@cwebber I wish JK Rowling that some dust falls in her eye and cannot be easily removed, just as she was about to go to sleep.
@cwebber I wish #JKRowling an incurable yeast infection, and may her life be ever more interesting. 😁
@cwebber I wish ill on the source of the problem: Bluesky.
@cwebber So this is what Bluesky is about, @mmasnick.bsky.social?
@cwebber I also wish ill to JR rowling.
@cwebber should have said "i wish her to get what she so richly deserves"
@cwebber May JK Rowling never feel the warmth of the flame on a cold winter's day, and may she forever feel unwelcome to matter where she goes.
As long as JKR doesn't violate BS "community guidelines" when using BS to further her TERF agenda, she'll be fine...
Fuck BS!
@cwebber May JKR live in interesting times. May those in authority become aware of her. May all her wishes that do NOT harm others become true. And may her sleeves always slip down and get wet when she washes hands.
@cwebber For those that want to yap about this over on #bluesky without creating an account, follow @bsky.brid.gy here on Mastodon.
Once they follow you (as long as your account is 7+ days old), then anything you post here on the Fediverse will be bridged across the Bluesky without need for an account.
As an aside, I originally tried creating a #bluesky account and got suspended almost immediately because I used a @simplelogin.com domain, because I'm expected to just give out my email, my real email, to every Tom, Dick, and Harry that asks for it instead of practicing #compartmentalization apparently?
@cwebber Super funny how BlueSky was/is a perceived heaven for trans folk.
They will bend as everyone else will.
@cwebber Considering for a moment the irrepairable harm JKR is causing on the #transgender community with her vile "books", unfounded personal opinions on subjects she knows nothing about, funding known hate groups, and so on and so forth, I personally wish the same harm will befall her fortwith and may it hurt her forever and more.
@cwebber I’m with Jessie
@cwebber Gotta love censorship.
@cwebber may JK forever find the stairs moving so she can never reach the bathroom she's trying to use.
@cwebber Let's see if this shows up.
May she live to see her books forgotten and her legacy reduced to only her bigotry.
@cwebber I feel a just... Oh... Um... Jack Dorsey... Need one say more?
@cwebber
I mean, we all told you. Dont go to the next billionaire centralized shithole. Y'all didn't listen. Sucks I guess.
(Of course not directed at Christine)
Wishing ill to JKR
@cwebber May whatever ill they wish or inflict upon trans people find its way back to them. And if my wishing that violates community guidelines, I wish Rowling a merry suspension.
@cwebber to bear ill will bit to wish ill
I only want her to stop thinking she's right, take the time to learn from her critics, and grow.
Failing that, losing her contracts would also be acceptable.
@cwebber i have a friend that didn’t know about Rowling’s mask dropping and they were pissed. they’re not on social media and oligarchic media protects her. after all, USA’s biggest media company is Disney; and they control a big chunk of entertainment, sports and news.
there’s a need for an organized info insurgency against her.
@cwebber
Yes, ill will to JKR! I hope she steps on a hundred legos every day for the rest of her life.
@cwebber I also wish all ill will to JK Rowling
@cwebber I also wish ill will to JK Rowling. May all her works and all her fame and wealth disappear and may her damned name be forgotten.
@cwebber I wish ill on J.K. Rowling and all who institutionally protect her, and I'm fucking happy I can say that here with no fear.
@cwebber I'm just gonna second this instead of writing my own wish of ill will, 'cause yours was very articulate.
@cwebber I wish unfortunate happenings upon JK Rowling
I wish everything JK Rowling send out will get back threefold on her.
The Wicca rule of 3
@cwebber May she forever step on Lego.
@cwebber
So much about bluesky as alternative social platform to X, Meta, etc...they are just some years (or month?) behind...but will probably end the same way...when the platform depends in advertising...
We should all say "I also wish ill will to JK Rowling" and see if it gets any traction.
