most real-life villain thinks they are doing good. JK Rowling rhetoric is all about “protecting women”. She probably is certain she is some sort of martyr trying to save the world

so 3 different agenda, with the same result. Probably it is as coincidental as that

astute observation. Zuckerberg with all his new 'masculine energy" stuff, could still fit in your approach: he dont accept his woman side

yeah may be it’s just rich people having a louder voice . But trans existed for a long time, and we never heard so much vitriol against them until a few decade back

very interesting take. Thanks

she seems pretty vocal about it : https://theweek.com/feature/1020838/jk-rowlings-transphobia-controversy-a-complete-timeline

I get it. But that smokescreen is achieved with anti-immigrant rhetoric. Throwing Trans in , seems so random

You might be right: it’s a rebranding of anti-gay sentiment.

In French we have “a burned cat fear cold water” (chat échaudé craint l’eau froide)
