CLUB STATEMENT- BK8 CONTRACT TERMINATED
spindrift replied to cambridgeshire canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
So it turns out that your claim that it was not true that Rowling liked transphobic tweets is based on your beliefs that Rowling's spokesperson doesn't speak for Rowling, although Rowling has never made such a claim, and to ignore the dictionary and legal definitions of transphobic. That's your evidence? Sadly the ruling you cite demolishes your own argument when it clarified: "This judgment does not mean that those with gender-critical beliefs can ‘misgender’ trans persons with impunity.” https://www.theguardian.com/law/2021/jun/10/gender-critical-views-protected-belief-appeal-tribunal-rules-maya-forstater Didn't you read that bit? You cited a legal ruling that destroys your own point. Oh dear. -

If you call a trans colleague a "man in a dress" at your place of employment you'll be escorted from the premises for transphobic discrimination. It's plainly transphobic because misgendering is a breach of employment law. You've been proven wrong, you've misquoted me and you've been rumbled. You're a dishonest, unreliable person who makes false claims cos you don't read posts carefully. Now be quiet. -

"Just over a week ago, Rowling misgendered a trans woman and referred to a TERF in a tweet that she said was accidental" https://www.advocate.com/people/2020/6/06/jk-rowling-goes-full-terf-new-series-transphobic-tweets Apology accepted. "Rowling’s action in liking the tweet brought confusion among fans of her beloved series, and it was originally written off as being an accidental like or a slip of her fingers." https://www.spectatornews.com/opinion/2021/03/how-harmful-were-j-k-rowlings-transphobic-tweets/ -

There you go again. I didn't say she apologised, I said she claimed it was a mistake. You MUST read more carefully or you will keep making these mistakes. -

They lied three times in their statement. The grammar was pretty garbled too, you'd think they'd at least hire a native English speaker for company statements. -

The one she liked, then claimed it was an accident. Did you genuinely know nothing about this? Finally you admit the obvious. You have no idea what Rowling said. Don't you dare accuse people of falsehoods them grudgingly concede you haven't a clue what happened. Just be honest next time. -

I didn't say she was transphobic. You need to read more carefully. I said she liked some transphobic tweets then claimed it was a mistake. What excuse did Rowling give for liking the transphobic tweets? With your in depth knowledge you must know the answer to that. -

So naturally you have no idea whether they're "bo**ocks", so yelling: "What you're saying is bo**ocks!" then admitting you don't know what I'm talking about makes you look like a silly sausage. Seriously mate, you're not cut out for rational, informed debate. You lack the skills and the knowledge. It' embarrassing. -

If you don't know what they are you have no idea whether they're bo**llocks. You're not very good at this. -

So when you said "That's ****" you had no idea what I was talking about. You've just played yourself son. -

Here's the proof: So we know the company are dishonest because we have proof of their dishonesty. Simples! https://www.itv.com/news/anglia/2021-06-10/norwich-city-announce-mutual-termination-of-controversial-bk8-sponsorship-deal-after-fan-backlash -

They could have brazened it out and ignored the protests. It shows strength of character to admit "We got it wrong", imo. -

Maybe if BK8 hadn't lied three times in official company press releases it wouldn't have looked so bad for them. First they claimed the social media posts were "rogue" then "historic" then "deleted". All false claims. So if a gambling firm are dishonest in official company press releases it makes you wonder how scrupulously even-handed and open they were when they induced those young women to debase themselves..
