    idk, I think it’s worth stopping to recognize how incredibly fucking weird it is how there’s this whole segment of the population who spend an inordinate amount of their time and attention just absolutely obsessing over their hatred of trans people. Rowling is the public face of it but she’s hardly alone.

        Just goes to show how one-note she’s gotten, that even the owner of the platform who’s no SJW and desperate to ingratiate himself to celebs is like, “can you give it a rest already?”

        I scrolled through her feed to see how long before that was her last non-trans-related tweet and gave up after two dozen.

          Not just the owner of that platform, but the very vocally anti-trans owner of the platform.

          It would be like David Duke telling Nick Fuentes to stop being so racist all the time.

      If the irrational hatred of gay people is similar at all, these people are closeted trans people inflicting their hatred of themselves and their own feelings on the world. Probably.
