Calling that comment, "incredibly hateful and transphobic", can take power away from things that are actually hateful and transphobic. JK Rowling is a transphobe and can fuck off, for sure, but that comment was not hateful. They never even mentioned their own opinion on Trans rights anywhere in it. It was just an incredibly naive and ignorant take about the JK Rowling situation.
That being said, it was a bad take, for sure. It's dumb to give anyone a pass for shitty behavior based on other things that they have done.
No. Your comment is wrong.
They openly are defending a known extreme transphobe who supports TERFS and donates to them. They underplayed the transphobia. They suggested that being bigoted against trans folks is okay because they're a small subset of the population. They said that others were wrong for saying that she's a transphobe despite her transphobic behavior. By saying that, they have openly stated their opinion. They didn't need to say anything more. If you defend a transphobe thats because you are a transphobe.
The only person here who is naive as fuck is you and I am not giving you another second of my time.
I never said you were naive, I said the comment you replied to was. You sound unhappy. I wish you nothing but good things and I hope you have a nice life. Peace.
