JK Rowling 'doesn't do what she's told' after Elon Musk's trans swipe

JK Rowling's X account has become a stream of targeted tweets transgender women and even Elon Musk seems to have had enough.

The Harry Potter The author has been the subject of much controversy as she continues to campaign against trans women in women's spaces.

She recently clashed with Daniel Radcliffe as he revealed he feels 'so sad' if he is now at the 58 year old author.

The Miracle Workers star has long been an advocate for trans rights, with Rowling previously saying as much wouldn't 'accept an apology' from him about their opposing views – not that he seems to offer any.

Now, X owner and Tesla founder Musk has stepped in and told Rowling to move on with her repetitive tweets about the trans community.

“While I wholeheartedly agree with your points regarding sex/gender, may I suggest posting interesting and positive content on other issues as well?” said the 52-year-old businessman.

He had responded to a tweet from Rowling in which she attempted to define a woman without alienating any cisgender women but excluding trans women.

X-users were hysterical about Musk's tweet, pointing out that he had essentially called Rowling “boring” and “annoying.”

“Imagine being so annoying that the absolute King of Annoyance tells you to tone it down,” wrote Joe S. Farrar.

Blake added, “You know you're obsessed with trans people when even Elon Musk thinks maybe you should talk about something else every now and then 😂😂.”

“Did… Elon just call JKR boring???” Rachel Charlton-Dailey asked while Alex Watt added; “If Elon Musk thinks your transphobia is getting a little too much now, you've officially hit a new low.”

“If the most lame man I knew called me a loser in front of an audience of millions, I'd probably end it right away,” Sallysauerkraut joked.

Conspiracy theorist David Icke came to Rowling's defense, saying: 'Can I suggest it's none of your business?'

Rowling appears to have accepted Musk's response in good faith, as she tweeted a link to “more positive content” hours later when an interview she had done was published.

“Hahaha, I just realized I missed the advice yesterday to share more positive content…,” she wrote.

'This sharing about my writing life, which coincidentally was published today in The Sunday Times, should in no way be interpreted as me doing as I'm told😉.'

Musk responded, saying, “I need to be reminded of this myself every now and then.”

Following this, the Cuckoo's Calling author returned to her usual tweets and promoted some of her other interviews.

The interaction with the Space X founder comes after Rowling's behavior was addressed by longtime LGBTQ+ ally and Harry Potter icon Radcliffe.

The Miracle Workers star confessed, “It makes me really sad in the end, because I look at the person I met, the times we met, and the books she wrote, and the world she created, and all that . is so deeply empathetic to me.'

He continued to the Atlantic Ocean: 'Jo, without her Harry Potter obviously wouldn't have happened, so without that person probably nothing in my life would have happened the way it has. But that doesn't mean you owe the things you really believe to someone else for the rest of your life.”
