Ralph Fiennes defends JK Rowling against the attacks she receives

Ralph Fiennes is outraged.

The interpreter of Voldemort in the franchise

is disgusted by the insults received by JK Rowling since his position towards transgender women.

For the comedian, these "verbal abuse" are "disgusting" and "appalling".

JK Rowling has been accused of transphobia since mocking a phrasing that said she wanted to 'create a post-Covid-19 world for people who menstruate'.

Then, the novelist went further in her remarks, explaining that we cannot "erase the concept of sex" in favor of gender, thus implying that a person born male cannot biologically become female despite his transition. .

No to cancel culture

Since then, JK Rowling has made it known that she has received death threats.

Ralph Fiennes does not understand the violence of the attacks against the author.

“I can understand an angry take on what she said about women.

But it's not something obscene, ultra-right fascist.

It's just a woman who says "I am a woman, I feel like a woman and I want to be able to say that I am a woman".

I understand her, even though I'm not a woman,” he added to The

.

Moreover, Ralph Fiennes does not appreciate the “cancel culture”.

According to him, if “anger is virtuous”, it becomes “stupid” when it has “no nuance”.
