Identity politics destroys all those that rode it into power and wealth.

She is being excoriated for daring to say that men are born men and women are born women, and you can't change that for love or money. "Transgender women" are not women. They are a fraud.

The "erudite" used to say "there are no absolutes." Apart from the obvious contradiction that the phrase is an absolute, there are absolutes now. Anything the rabid left says is "an absolute" and you are persona non grata if you do not agree with them as they gleefully move the goalposts to keep you in line.

She’s been liberal on many other issues, and they loved her for it. One time she disagrees, and she’s vilified. But will it wake her up in the end?

That's cult behavior.

This was all predicted. The left always end up fighting among each other to claw to the top of the communist/socialist pile of sh*t. The left is incapable of functioning in a free civil society.

The left always eats its own. It’s like a fundamental rule. Their goals and “values” constantly shift so any leftist with consistent principles will eventually be hated by other leftists.

One of the reasons she’s being dragged over the coals is that she introduced a character in her fifth book (Order of the Phoenix) who some readers interpreted as being “non-binary” but she ended up having that (female) character marry a man by the end of the series.

  This is a remarkably clear, astute and cogent observation from JK Rowling, considering she's afflicted with advanced TDS

I admire Rowling for not backing down. She spoke some simple obvious truths (only women menstruate, only women can give birth) and for that is being pilloried by the trans community. Of course, she has a billion dollars so is far above being damaged by the assault fo the loons.

Was she the chick whose hair changed colors, and was on the escort ride of Harry?

Jk Rowling got more kids reading than any author since Enid Blyton and Dr Suess.
For that alone...

I didn’t see Nymphadora as “non binary “. She came across as a goth/punk style girl.
