Stephanie Sterling breaks down exactly why “virulent transphobe” isn’t at all an exaggeration with Rowling:

Maybe they took issue with the “virulent” part?

Just read the article dummy, it’s not clickbaity at all and is a thoughtful exploration of the issue

Oh she’s definitely a transphobe.

the bitches in the comment section butthurt because they’re little game is subject to a little critique. it’s always the people who think they’re above every controversy who are the most immature.
