And? JK makes statements that are supportive of trans people in her view, but that they are also different than women. It's her right.
The issue is she's being bullied and lambasted for not having the 'correct view' in the eyes of the social justice mob.
This ultimately rolls up to economics and producers get afraid.
Every work related to her new gets a bitchy frothy scathing indictment in 'The Daily Beast' and other rags because irrespective of the quality of the content, they 'hate' the author for her ideological positions, and so, they make a fuss.
She's rich and certainly her books are still popular, so she has some degree of defence, but the outrage against her is populist fascism.
'Social Justice Mobs' - particularly among the young (I'm making my assumptions from Reddit readership) are a problem. The kids are self righteous fascist.
This is an entirely separate problem from 'right wing mobs' trying to overthrow election results, denying that such a thing as 'trans' exists etc.. The means of expression of power are quite different.
