Nothing Rowling has said should even be remotely controversial.
What an obvious flat out lie. I snorted when I reached that line. I can’t understand how the author could include bullshit like that. Doesn’t pass even the most casual smell-test.
Here’s an article that Vox keeps having to update to ensure everybody can track Rowling’s detailed history of transphobia. Rowling is transphobic, that’s a fact.
If he doesn’t find any of this objectionable then you know exactly were he stands.
Rowling is transphobic, that’s a fact
This Vox article misrepresents at least the first of the events it lists. It says
‘this is notable because the piece made the basic argument Rowling continues to make today, namely that trans women are by default part of a “male-bodied” group who are dangerous to women and who should not have access to women’s bathrooms’
and this is partly true because the Medium article it’s taking about, which Rowling liked, is indeed referring to a “male-bodied” group, that group being males:
‘You have read our painful disclosures, our universal cries of me too! You have had a taste of what it might be like to try to navigate a male dominated world as a woman, and of how a socially conditioned fear of male bodies might ingrain itself.’
But in the tweet the Vox article quotes, they misrepresent the Medium article as referring not to males but to trans women:
‘JK Rowling hitting that like button on a “trans women are rapists” piece’
This is a non sequitur.
John Lithgow is 79 years old, an A-list actor, and still being offered leading roles in major films. I don’t think he’s afraid of being canceled.
Well I think it helps that the Harry Potter franchise doesn’t echo the values of JK Rowling that leftists find so loathsome. Even non-alisters are attached to this project.
You don’t have to be far left to know that hating trans people is wrong.
he’s too old to be harry potter
