Nothing Rowling has said should even be remotely controversial.

What an obvious flat out lie. I snorted when I reached that line. I can’t understand how the author could include bullshit like that. Doesn’t pass even the most casual smell-test.

Here’s an article that Vox keeps having to update to ensure everybody can track Rowling’s detailed history of transphobia. Rowling is transphobic, that’s a fact.

John Lithgow is 79 years old, an A-list actor, and still being offered leading roles in major films. I don't think he's afraid of being canceled.

Well I think it helps that the Harry Potter franchise doesn't echo the values of JK Rowling that leftists find so loathsome. Even non-alisters are attached to this project.
