JK Rowling, Joe Rogan and Elon Musk are fuming over Scotland’s hate crime law
A legal shake-up aimed at protecting minorities angers high-profile opponents on freedom of speech grounds.
It was no April Fool’s joke.
Harry Potter author-turned culture warrior J.K. Rowling kicked off the month with an 11-tweet social media thread in which she argued 10 transgender women were men — and dared Scottish police to arrest her.

Already the law has generated far more international buzz than is normal for legislation passed by a small nation’s devolved parliament.

He talks like a regular person would.. if you think he's stupid then you are basically saying "regular people are stupid cuz I'm a big smarty smart pants look at me with my big smart brain"
If you talk like Joe, you are stupid. Plain and simple.
