@georgetakei Of course they don’t, and I doubt either side is looking for it, but if you’d rather talk about the incessant manufacturing of conflict in the media for clicks and eyeballs….
@georgetakei It seems to me that she is just another person scorned by something she doesn't understand and has ended up using trans people as a scapegoat. Unfortunately, she also gets so much feedback in her position that she is actually able to influence others, who continue to feed her opinion back to her on a large scale.
Even the sweetest can turn bitter in the right culture.
@georgetakei perhaps she should read the books that she wrote. They deal with prejudice and working together for everyone's rights, not just "pure bloods".
J.K. Rowling is the one who owes the world an apology. Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson owe her no apology for their support of LGBTQ+ rights.
If Rowling feels entitled to scream that she will "never forgive" them for being mature human beings, instead of acting puppets, she's the one who might benefit from a long visit to Azkaban.
@georgetakei they don’t, no more than you would owe an apology to Gene Roddenberry for publicly disagreeing with some position he took.
Just because someone offers you an opportunity, even one that is life-changing, doesn’t mean you are required to agree with everything they believe in. No reasonable person expects that.
