Reading her Wikipedia page, she's given huge amounts to all kinds of charities. Easy to get swept up in the whole pro/anti conversation, but even the one charity that specifically serves women only rape victims is doing good things. I just can't equate her with Musk.
- mschuster91 2mo agoJKR has a history of being a proud anti trans bigot, not just donating money to such causes, but establishing her own NGO that is explicitly anti trans [1]. She is every bit as vile a bigot as Musk is, just with less (but still more than enough) money. And on top of that, her alter ego/pen name is male ("Robert Galbraith"), so it's yet another dose of bigotry on top - appearing as a male for... whatever reason, idk.

- mschuster91 2mo agoBy all accounts, trans women are among the most vulnerable. They don't just have to fear rabid men like cis women, they have to fear "transvestigators" and fellow women too.
- viiiiivi 2mo agoI wonder how vulnerable are the ones that send rape threats and death threats to women who advocate for single-sex spaces. JKR has probably received more of this abuse than any other woman. She's become a lightning rod for this deranged, abusive male behaviour, simply for advocating for women's sex-based rights and refusing to be intimidated to silence.
