IF YOU CAN’T GET A JOB, IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT!!!!! THE SYSTEM IS DEEPLY BROKEN!!!!!!!!

The hiring process has never been great, but in the past couple of years it’s hit rock bottom. Ghost jobs probably outnumber real jobs on job sites. Recruiters and HR use AI which throws out 90% of resumes before a real human being sees them. And most companies are hellbent on holding out for a unicorn candidate- meaning someone who already knows how to do the EXACT role without any training while also accepting entry level wages- instead of investing in new people.

of course the democrats should also never ever listen to the leftists because the leftists are far too weak and useless to actually swing an election in their favor. the left has no political capital in america, no power, and no ability to actually affect the outcome of the election, so we can ignore them.

and like i was saying the degenerate left stabbed us in the back, they're ubiquitous and all-powerful and that's why the democrats lost in 2024, because of the leftists swinging the election for donald trump and that's why we need to round up the leftists and put them in camps

but also, the leftists literally are nothing, they're nobody, it's just a couple teenagers who never touch grass so we can ignore them, they're totally powerless, don't worry about them.

anyway the leftists all are secretly lizards with slit eyes and forked tongues and all have mind control powers and can force everyone to vote for republicans (but only republicans) and so we need to kill them and beat them with hammers and pour acid on them because every time we fail it's their fault and not ours.

People have been calling her a holocaust denier for denying the nazis targeted trans people. Obviously she thinks this because she doesn't believe that trans people really exist, so nothing would convince her, and more attention has been drawn to this by her trying to silence a critic calling her a holocaust denier using legal threats.

So should we call her a holocaust denier? Maybe not. By doing so, it makes it sound like she is denying the holocaust as a whole, (As nazis and people aligned with them are a fan of doing.) That is an easy statement for nazis and terfs to argue with.

However, I would like to propose an alternative. In 2022, German phd student and terf Marie-Luise Vollbrecht pulled the same stunt on twitter that JKR is pulling now, and was accused of "denying nazi crimes." For this, she filed a lawsuit against the people accusing her, and the court ruled against her. It was deemed that she was, in fact, denying nazi crimes.

JKR is a big fan of Motte and Bailey arguments, where you try to hide a hard to defend argument (That she hates trans people and is lobbying to make it illegal to be trans) inside an easy to defend argument, (That she is just trying to protect women and girls you guys, seriously.) She doesn't say what she means, so I think when criticizing her, we should say what we mean.

By calling her a holocaust denier publicly, you open yourself up to "Well she is not denying the holocaust happened, just that trans people were involved." which when it comes to terfs is an argument you can't win because they will never acknowledge trans people even exist as a meaningful political group, and by taking the very specific thing she is doing and generalizing it as holocaust denial, is that not also somewhat of a Motte and Bailey?
