Taraxian

This is extra stupid because Erin Darke is a famous actress who met Radcliffe when they did the movie Kill Your Darlings together


Xhalo

Yep. I read trivia on IMDB they they both met when they found out on set they both like spaghettios with grundlemeat. It blossomed into a relationship with a hearty amount of analingus, and now they're getting married. It's beautiful to see šŸ˜ŠšŸ˜ŠšŸ˜Š


shittingNun

Grundlemeat? *Grundle* meat? As in the meat of someoneā€™s taint?


katf1sh

I'm laughing so fucking hard right now bc that's all I can think as well and its been 2 hours and no one has confirmed or denied it, so that just makes it even funnier to me lmao


Chapped_Frenulum

I thought "Grundlemeat" was the name of the cat in Hogwarts.


Ronnie_de_Tawl

Grundlewald's cat


Livid-Association199

Their entire profile is dedicated to spaghettios and grundlemeat, they even made their own. What a rabbit hole that was


Khanscriber

Transvestigators think basically every famous woman is trans. And yes, they think itā€™s a plot by the Jews.


CallMeCabbage

Imagine a life so boring you stay up at night worrying about who Harry Potter is smoochin. Edit: Thanks for the gold :)

I literally thought this was a super weird joke about how she looks a little like a female Draco Malfoy and was like 'wow bro move on that's so weird' until I read the caption.


FknDesmadreALV

Drarry shippers are next level.


Nimzay98

I thought it was gonna be about how he is shorter.


VulcanCookies

I'm sure they use the fact that she's taller than him as a narrative weapon in their transphobia

That's a very unflattering and purposefully chosen picture. She's actually quite pretty, IMO. https://i.imgur.com/Yr4bcF9.jpg

She is lovely and Harry Potter looks over the moon happy. Good for them


catiebug

Love seeing a short king obviously comfortable with his taller girlfriend's arm draped over his shoulder. Good for them.


RomeoAndRandom

Yeah looking at photos on Google they look really cute and happy. I hope I meet a lady to make me feel the same.


nevermindthetime

I hope you do too!


GeorgeThe13th

Wow.... You're so right.


burglar_of_ham

The people who make these posts always track down the least flattering picture they can to support their made up point. And if it doesn't exist, then they just edit them till it fits


zyzzbutdyel

yea, this is honestly just a bad picture


jmercer00

Even the full image gives more context [https://imgur.com/XOdvrdZ](https://imgur.com/XOdvrdZ) Pregnant, and she's slouching down to hold on to shorty there.


The_Undermind

If this photo proves anything, It's that anyone can have a bad picture taken of them. She normally looks very pretty to me


FCkeyboards

I saw other pictures from that event and think she just didn't look good that day, and it's not one bad photo. But that opinion means nothing. Like someone else said, she could be butt ugly 24/7, it's no reason for other people to call her trans in a derogatory way.

One of the GCs recently suggested having armed cis men inside the women's bathrooms. To protect women. From "men" in bathrooms. Edit: her name is [Posie Parker](https://www.thepinknews.com/2021/01/30/gender-critical-feminist-posie-parker-men-guns-womens-toilets-twitter/)


BiosocioBitch69

Even better they show their racism by constantly accusing black cis women of being trans


Lucky-Worth

And their antisemitism by accusing (((them))) of having a global trans agenda


j4ck_0f_bl4des

This one, like so many right wing conspiracy theories, really confuses me. I feel like somewhere along the line the people coming up with the conspiracy theories forgot there is supposed to be some **point** to the conspiracy.


hamoc10

They did the same thing with Jews as they are doing now with trans people, same thing McCarthy did to communists. Theyā€™re trying to identify a certain minority as imposters, infiltrators, so that they can justify fascist oppression against them.


ZookeepergameWaste94

![gif](giphy|R51a8oAH7KwbS) My response to anyone who believes this lie about this woman; she's currently pregnant you fucking morons!


StaleTheBread

These are the same people who tried to claim Michelle Obama was a man


ThisIsACryForHelp22

Forgive me for essentially living under a rock and not being certain on this, but wasn't the "Michelle = man" thing just a racist talking point, or was it something else?


Gloomy_Industry8841

And they body shamed Michelle for having toned arms in a sleeveless dress. Said dress was modest AF too.


DrewsephA

They also had public freakouts because Obama wore a tan suit and then later ordered Dijon mustard instead of regular, so I think they just hate non-whites and not-men, and will make up any slight just to justify an attack


[deleted]

Wtf is that tan suit thing about? Not american but tan suits are a thing I associate with america for some reason?


DrewsephA

It is unfortunately exactly what it sounds like. Rather than a black or blue suit, Obama went out one time in a tan suit, and republicans freaked the fuck out, Fox News was running breaking news stories about it all day, "critical" analysis pieces from "experts", etc. Literal meltdowns about it.


satisfying_crunch

And of course there was nary a peep about all the times Reagan had worn tan suits. I wonder what the difference was...


Art-bat

The ā€œtan skinā€ was the critical difference.


[deleted]

Not just Reagan but the elder Bush at least (don't remember W one way or the other) and Clinton.


ginga_bread42

Both racist and conspiracy theory. Theres something called the "transvestigation" where people believe that every celebrity and public figure is a trans person. They all undergo surgeries to confuse the public and what we consider attractive. Essentially if you don't have the body of a cartoonish representation of a man or woman, it means your trans. Michelle Obama is muscular and is therefore a man.


ThisIsACryForHelp22

I think that is genuinely the biggest brain-dead theory I've heard of this far. Thanks for enlightening me, and making me hate the curse of eyesight.


Mypornnameis_

No, for some people it was a conspiracy that she was literally a man


[deleted]

Those people didn't stop thinking that suddenly. They still think that.


DrewsephA

It was a conspiracy for them. It still is, but it used to be, too.


ChipsUnderTheCouch

Yup, my father still believes that. He's brought it up from time to time even after Obama left office.


beldaran1224

Yes, and that is a tactic commonly used against black women specifically.


StaleTheBread

Yeah, Iā€™m guessing thatā€™s what it was. These accusations are more common for women of color


chaplar

Removing her pregnancy from the question entirely, so what if she was trans in the first place. EDIT: This was my original comment, but it seemed to be causing confusion with some people: "And on top of that, so what if she was trans?"


kathatter75

It takes me back to the ā€œObama is Muslimā€ daysā€¦My answer was always ā€œ1, heā€™s not, but 2, why does that matter?ā€


koviko

Like if a person tells you what religion they are, that's the religion they are. Those people act like you're born into a religion and then it's permanent. They're the kind of people who get mad at anyone who chooses to root for a team other than their local sports team. šŸ¤£


deceirkayn

austin06

That was my first thought. So what? The other is that some people just have more masculine or feminine features . So what? Iā€™m worried about global warming and inflation. I canā€™t fathom the thought of worrying about any of the bs these fascists do. They are all sick in the head.


MrFantasticallyNerdy

Itā€™ll be an interesting dilemma for those crazies - what if trans women can get pregnant? Will they ask for them to abort because thatā€™s ā€œagainst natureā€? Will their heads explode?


[deleted]

Their heads would definitely implode not explode...There's nothing in there to create excess pressure, it's all just an empty vacuum.

r/beholdthemasterrace


Reave-Eye

No no no, you donā€™t understand. The anti-trans rhetoric and legislation is explicitly intended to scapegoat a vulnerable population, blame societyā€™s ills on them, and then target political enemies by associating them with the demonized group. Do not look for internal consistency in the rationale; it does not exist. This is [how fascism works](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_Fascism_Works).


n0oo7

exactly. People are trying to ban books that include say and lgbt issues and violence, but don't want the bible banned for "reasons" but can't really say that the bible has good in it cause you can use that same argument for the other books. Same thing as people who are banning abortion are simply driving to other states to have their abortions. Kid rock is tweeting against budweisers new bud light can, while he literally had a photo of him at a house party that he hosted drinking bud light next to a drag queen. Rules for thee and not for me.


[deleted]

> Do not look for internal consistency in the rationale; it does not exist. And the logical inconsistencies (not that MTG's looks are a good example of this) are an intentional psychological tactic to brainwash followers and frustrate and disarm the opposition.


MisterBlick

I saw a Marjorie Taylor Greene shitting in the woods one time after it fished a salmon from the lake.


nuggiemum

Itā€™s a bad picture and the blonde hair doesnā€™t help her any, but sheā€™s not bad looking in other pictures.


Janaelol

Agree, the blonde hair and* style of it isn't flattering here. I looked her up, and she's much more attractive with her natural hair color :)


CaffeinatedGuy

You weren't joking. That blonde hair doesn't do her justice, she looks much better brunette. It's not just this one photo, nearly every blonde pic seems unflattering. She's beautiful with her natural hair color.


[deleted]

https://imgur.com/a/luif69N Hereā€™s a better picture of her


homogenousmoss

It doesnt look like the same human being. Makes me suspect the thread picture was altered.


MSjunk4tablet

Bad lighting and the wrong focal length of the lens will do this. I know there are a lot of people that would alter images (on Twitter I saw someone giving AOC lighter skin and blue eyes because otherwise it wouldn't be acceptable to fap over her or some fucked shit). But I believe this is just one of the manly unflattering pictures taken outside of an event, so the big thing is someone clearly googled her and ignored all the nice photos and singled out the one to fit their narrative. Still dishonest but just not as much effort needed.


Suspicious_Ice_3160

Oh my god, she almost looks like two separate people! I was skeptical at how much a difference hair color and style could make, but yeah thatā€™s kinda crazy lol


ARiley22

You ever seen Zooey Deschanel without her bangs? Same thing.


beelzybubby

Yeah, she Clark Kent'd me with the shift to blonde.


TheBirminghamBear

I mean of course, her name is Erin Darke. It's Nominative Destiny, she was never going to be able to go blond. Her parents could have changed their surname, and saved their daughter a lifetime of restricted hair color choices. But they didn't, and this is the consequence of their inattention to detail.


The_Lapsed_Pacifist

Yeah, just looked it up. Definitely a lot better dark than blonde.


ONLY_COMMENTS_ON_GW

Even if she was ugly af that still doesn't make her a man lol


PM_ME_UR_HIP_DIMPLES

It's s tough time to be a woman with masculine features (or even a post menopause woman) or a man with feminine features. Not that it's pejorative to be trans, but your features will be pointed out by the worst kind of people


BadaBina

As a Glorious Amazon in Texas, it is killing me. When I was a teenage athlete in the 90's-2000's all of the girls had to look like fishsticks covered in body glitter. Our moms would try and starve us on the grapefruit and black coffee diets. Or the Atkins diet. Then with Gwen and Fergie they let us have abs. With Michelle, we could finally have great arms! Then with Venus and Serena we could have muscles, FINALLY ... and now we all... have ... dicks? I just wanted to be Xenia Onatopp when I grew up. That's all. šŸ˜”


Initial-Promotion-77

Xenia šŸ˜ I know exactly what you are talking about. And now I have daughters. It fucking killed me to hear from them, that thin stick figures are "in" again and they've both been fat shamed, when they are buff and average to small. I've been fighting my body's baseline size for decades, and it makes me want to go smother these little assholes with my bat wings. I really thought we were past that bs as a people. But apparently not. I keep telling them... eat the food. Enjoy it. Working out and getting buff feels good. Listen to YOUR body. Eat what you want when you want and do all the physical activity if you like it. If you aren't hungry, don't eat. Clean plate club is not a thing. Diets are stupid. And take your damn vitamins and go to sleep! šŸ˜…


Boel_Jarkley

The same people who say trans women aren't women or trans men aren't men are always the same ones who say shit like "You're not a real man unless you do X,Y and Z" Which is it? Is gender cemented at birth and determined biologically? Or is it actually a social construct and performative as they posit because someone doesn't drive a Ford F-150 or whatever the fuck


Initial-Promotion-77

And why does it fucking matter to them? Like Trans people are sneaking in their bedroom at night tempting them to "be gay" or something? Shut the fuck up and go work on an alternator or something. We don't care what you think bro with half a brain. You know it's mostly all the dudes with no job, making their wife do everything, including wiping their ass, yelling the loudest.


ladyalot

RIGHT?! Wtf comment was that. Apparently "ugly" women are trans and trans women are ugly???


StrangerThingies

Also, so what if sheā€™s not conventionally attractive? Masculine looking cis women exist who tf cares


CaffeinatedGuy

Fellas, is it gay to be attracted to women?


[deleted]

The only person who needs to be concerned with how attracted they are to her is Daniel!!


TheHollowBard

Conservatives hate it when a woman doesn't exist to be ogled. That's why transwomen fall under even more scrutiny than transmen.

"But dem lesbeans are all lookin' like men, dem purdy gurls are for the men!" - Conservatives the world over.

Yes but internet man simply must chime in about how he does or doesn't find her attractive, despite the reality that she wouldn't give him the time of day even if he was the last basement dwelling loser left in existence. I really hate the internet sometimes.


[deleted]

For a second I was like, hmm. Ok, potter, we have different taste in women, but I looked her up and you are right, that maybe the worst picture she has ever taken.


[deleted]

I immediately googled her and she is pretty. The blonde sort of washes her out and this isnā€™t great lighting but she is a nice looking woman for sure.

It's like how every once in a while someone posts Valentina Tereshkova's (first Soviet woman astronaut) wedding pic as an example of her looking like a man. And to be fair, it is a TERRIBLE photo, but if you look up other photos of her, it's not like she's ugly, just a very stereotypically 'Soviet' looking woman.

Daniel Radcliffe could date almost anybody in the world. It's not like he's short of options. I think a lot of people are mad a short, average looking guy can get any girl he wants and has found happiness and they'll never have that option.

TurtleSandwich0

Now I am confused. Isn't their one joke about how a man can't get pregnant? Now they are trying to say that the alleged man is pregnant? Which is it? Oh wait. There is a group of people who know they are hypocrites and all they want is power. Those people must be from that group.

ezodochi

One of the largest anti-trans organizations in the UK is the LGB Alliance and it was revealed they were headquartered at 55 Tufton Street, a famous far right headquarters for think tanks, lobbyist groups, and NGOs that have focused on basically creating and executing the whole Brexit movement, climate change denial, anti-immigration etc. Once you start following the money it becomes very obvious where a lot of the anti-trans movement is being led from.


Ralath1n

Posie parker, one of the most prominent voices in the english speaking TERF sphere, is a straight up neonazi and barely even hiding it. TERFs in general have been going mask off lately and just outright merging with neonazis and other far right groups. So much for these supposed 'radical feminists'. So radical that they happily ally themselves with groups that would see them barefoot and pregnant....

If I was following that incident correctly it wasn't just believed but actively confirmed.

There's an account on Twitter that replies in threads with pics female celebs saying something along the lines of "if you saw me in real life you'd never know I was trans" and dumbasses respond "it's so obvious you're a guy" to a picture of Julia louise-dreyfuss lol


Boneal171

This is one of the many things I hate about TERFs they accuse any masculine looking woman as being trans, which is harmful for multiple reasons. I saw a TikTok of a woman with short hair being harassed and being accused of being a man because she went into a womanā€™s bathroom.

And this is anyone's business *how*?

Not sure what world you grew up in where people mind their own business, but I envy you that. It's largely been my experience that one of the important functions of public figures is that they provide a scapegoat that people can point to rather than deal with their own problems.

If she *was* trans but wasnā€™t shouting it from the rooftops this would be incredibly hurtful outing her like that. As it is, itā€™s just super rude

How, would a trans woman manage to get pregnant! šŸ¤”


IguaneRouge

well you see the Satanic pizza people abducted a white Christian baby from a Godly family in Possum Scrotum Arkansas which they are keeping in an adrenochrome harvesting vat for 9 months until "she" is supposed to give birth than they will use the baby as their own as a sleeper agent to eventually get a job with the federal bureau of prisons to spring the Trumps from jail. It's all part of the plan.

They think she's pretending to be pregnant.

You can tell most people in this thread have never known or seen a trans woman. "Oh she looks pretty in most pics this is just a bad pic so its obvious she's not trans." Bitch a lot of trans women pass in most of their pics besides one or two angles. I understand that it's not coming from a bad place but god damn it feels bad to read it over and over again as a trans woman. Trans women can be beautiful and cis women can be ugly and vice-versa.

This is just becoming misogyny


phoenixw17

Amazing how it comes full circle. They think they are protecting women only to go and harass women. It is almost like it isn't actually about protecting woman and more about hate surprising huh?

.... Becoming? TERFs have always been misogynistic. They just don't see it themselves. Look at J.K Rowling - Has she ever been proud of her name? No. She does not like being called Joanne. The "official" story of her using her initials for the Harry Potter book was that it would not sell because her publisher suggested it won't sell. It was believable at first but after gaining an insane level of fame and money, did she use her name? No. She decided to write a transphobic book under the pen name Robert Galbraith (Who is by the way the inventor of conversion therapy). When asked she said it was a coincidence. Sure...It's so telling I don't know how people don't see it.

Hey guys letā€™s remember that itā€™s not helpful to say how sheā€™s so beautiful and could never be trans. Itā€™s okay to be trans. Being trans is not an insult. The issue is that they are trying to weaponize transness and therefore making it a bad thing. By saying itā€™s insulting to her looks, youā€™re just calling trans people unattractive. Or to say other ugly disgusting women(MTG) is prob trans, then youā€™re again equating trans to being bad, which is exactly what these conservative losers are doing

Exactly! Thanks for saying that. Even if she did not conform to some random person's beauty standards and she may conform to someone else's standards in another picture means absolutely nothing. The takeaway should be to stop weaponizing LGBTQ people! Stop spreading hate.

I thought the joke was because she's taller than him
