I encourage everyone to wish ill will upon JK Rowling, here and, if you have a Bluesky account, please do so there as well. If you get suspended, please share that information here.

JK Rowling, I curse you, from a distance. I will not personally harm you, because that's not the kind of person I am. But I wish you bad luck: that your bad karma eats at you, that your shows and books sell poorly, that your bad reputation catch up to you in the general public's eye.

@cwebber what a weird rule.

@evan @cwebber

"weird /wîrd/
adjective

Strikingly odd or unusual, especially in an unsettling way; strange. "

I'm no english native speaker, so i look things up.

Yes, strange, but i can somehow understand the why.

(Still i cannot understand why they put a burden like this on the moderators).

@lobingera @cwebber it feels very broad. Does "harm" include failure? If I wish that the Netanyahu government fails to eradicate Palestinians in Gaza, is that wishing them harm? Or does it only include physical harm?

@evan @cwebber It is broad. And so are many CoCs to simplify a/() very complex and diverse situation(s).

@lobingera @evan @cwebber I suspect social media platforms have special rules for certain people. I could probably tell an average person "I hope an anvil falls on your head" and nothing would be done.

@Nazani @evan @cwebber True, until someone sends your post to moderation.

It''s all about context - and many people using SocMedia deliberately choose to get rid of context.

(that''s my observation)
