—Natalie Wynn (emphasis and bracket text mine)
I like Natalie, but also it's possible to criticize someone (Swift) while also acknowledging that they aren't the one doing the most harm.
Just be wary which voices you amplify when you throw your argument onto the pile. Perhaps try mentioning other millionaires/billionaires who are also guilty of this behaviour.
Ngl, I do agree with this for Swift. Like she has problems with it and now made a dumb comment that broke the camel's back and now people are meme-ing it, but she isn't literally the biggest threat.
I'd say the case is pretty different for Rowling though. She definitely did her best to spread transphobia everywhere.
