I doubt you would call it “dumb politics” if she was relentlessly campaigning against your right to exist in society as a person.

People also still use Meta products, Apple products, Amazon and their products, and so on, even though all of these companies directly support the budding fascist empire in the USA.

Likely, you too buy/use products by a corporation that supports the pumpkin dictator, and that has much more real-world effect (on trans people and on all other minorities too) than the ramblings of a mad old TERF.

At least Rowling isn't directly stoking the genocide in Gaza or rounding up and deporting people to prison camps in other countries.

(I'm not defending Rowling. I'm just saying at a certain point most people, likely including you, value the convenience of next-day-shipping over the life of some people we don't know.)

Well I own it and I do, and most of my friends do as well (some of whom are trans)

But yeah, fuck JKR.
