In the show Star Trek, The Next Generation, there is an episode where Captain Pickard is being tortured....he is told to say that even though there are 4 lights lit on the wall, he must say there are 5 in order to prevent more torture....in the end, he is able to say there are only 4, the truth.
J.K. Rowling is now entering that same position......she is being told to say that men can be women and women can be men, and if she doesn't, it is fast approaching a time where she will be jailed for saying men cannot be women....and women cannot be men.....
There are 4 lights.....
“Labour would make attacks motivated by hatred of the victim's gender identity into 'aggravated offences', including deliberately calling a person by the wrong pronouns,” the report stated. “ “This would bring transphobic abuse into line with assault and harassment motivated by hatred on the grounds of race or religion, which are punishable by up to two years in prison.”
Rowling responded to the news on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“I’ll happily do two years if the alternative is compelled speech and forced denial of the reality and importance of sex,” Rowling wrote.

“I can only say that I’ve thought about it deeply and hard and long. And I’ve listened, I promise, to the other side,” she said. “And I believe, absolutely, that there is something dangerous about this movement, and it must be challenged.”
