Elon Musk, Jonathan Chait, and Debbie Hayton are among the diverse figures distancing themselves from Rowling’s increasingly open hostility to trans women.

    Kind of says something then when even the musk rat is going, “Woah, dial it back there”

      I’m kinda really tired of these inane and inaccurate takes on Musk’s tweet. He doesn’t tell her to “dial it back” at all. In fact he opens by agreeing that transphobia is great, but that it’s all Rowling talks about and she should diversify her content. That’s it. He’s not distancing himself from her or anything of the sort. These articles are dangerous to suggest otherwise in my opinion.

        Does that mean she thinks little girls, post menopausal women and sterile/infertile women are not women ? Damn, that’s an interesting take.
