    Can we pit them against each other…without a risk of them joining each other like a binary black hole of dumb?

    Nah, some of Rowlings ideas are fantastical and fun at least. Nothing that cromagnon goon Tate says nor thinks has any worth at all.

    Look, as much as I dislike Rowling’s terf bullshit, I haven’t heard of any human trafficking allegations involving her.

      She donates her considerable money to anti trans causes.

      Capital at scale is capable of far more damage than any other individual action can.

      A billionaire funding conservative aka cruel causes is being more effectively harmful than literally any serial killer in history, and depending on the cause, in some cases every serial killer in history put together.

      A billionaire lobbying to maintain maintain the American Healthcare system, aka our murder for profit confidence scheme industry, has a body count that would make Jake the ripper blush.

      To be fair to serial killers though, their murders are artisinal and hand crafted, not mass produced.

      She’s kept herself to the indirect harm options.

      Given what we know about mental health issues for trans folks, there’s definitely been some lives lost as a result of her choices, we just can’t prove a link.

        Let’s just say both of them are horrible human beings.

        I certainly agree with that. You make a good point.

        Of course they’re both horrible but then what’s the point of this meme? That they’re both bad?

          Both are serving as a pipeline for group-based enmity/bigotry for a specific target group. Tate pulls in sexually frustrated and insecure men and turns them into mysogynists. JKR pulls in middle aged insecure liberal-feminists and introduces them to transphobia.
