Ok, but that article doesn’t actually say anything different? She’s donating to organizations that are pushing against legislation that say trans women are the same as biological women. They aren’t saying trans people shouldn’t exist or shouldn’t have healthcare. Or am I missing something? Again, still shitty, and it doesn’t change my opinion of her either way, but am I crazy to think that’s not exactly the same as trans erasure?
Oh, I see the misunderstanding. Affirming a trans person’s preferred gender is healthcare. It’s a thing society does which improves their health. You know, like wheelchair ramps and flouride in water. Taking away legal recognition is taking away healthcare.
She’s also praised and encouraged the Cass Review, which claimed medical treatment for trans teens isn’t safe or effective, and is being used to excuse the new ban on puberty blockers.
Lemmy unreasonably hates her because she’s a successful woman that won’t nicely shut up and know her place. Misogyny runs deep here. Nobody will provide you with justification for the hyperbole in the OP because it doesn’t exist.
People are quite clear in their criticism of her based on the things she says she does. You’re trying to shift the conversation to something unrelated.
If criticisms of Rowling’s Transphobia are invalid they should be easy to dispute instead of trying to build an ad hominim Strawman.
They’re not clear at all. They’re histrionics. People don’t bother reading what she wrote. They read someone’s shit take worst possible interpretation of what she wrote
Then once again: that should be very easy to discredit. The fact that you have invented a strawman instead of addressing the criticisms actually being presented speaks volumes.
