Once again Twitter operated by a different set of rules. Rowling had been criticized for her comments on transgenders in the past, but a new response to her comments included a death threat.
The Daily Mail reported that activist Faye “Trust Fund Ozu” included the death threat as part of a “diss track” against Rowling. An animated backdrop contains the message “J.K. I hope you fit in a hearse.” The video was posted on Twitter.
Rowling posted screengrabs of the video on Twitter. “I’m afraid I can’t give a shout out to everyone promising to murder me – there are so many of you, and I’m a busy woman – but this one deserves a mention for the nineties rave vibe,” she tweeted .
Twitter’s Terms of Service specifically ban content that threatened violence. When the tweet was reported, however, Twitter refused to take action.
Actor James Dreyfus reported Ozu’s account for violating the platform’s rules, but Twitter said the message did not break any rules.
Dreyfus tweeted the response and said: “Surprise, Surprise! So, death threats = Good. Saying ’women are women’ = Bad. Congratulations Twitter Support. You’ve hit rock bottom. Seek help.”
It is worth noting that Twitter permanently banned former President Donald Trump after the Jan. 6 riot for allegedly furthering the “incitement of violence.”
“After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence,” said at the time . Twitter Safety added that “we made it clear on Wednesday that additional violations of the Twitter Rules would potentially result in this very course of action.” Conservatives are under attack.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
