ments of trans activists is a surefire way to turn anyone into a Terf. This is arguably one of the reasons why Rowling has been excluded and denounced by so many supposedly thoughtful, kind people. They can’t refute her arguments.
Columbus might have no in-depth knowledge about this particular issue. That he, like so many others, is so willing to condemn Rowling without any clear justification is nonetheless to his shame.
If you’re in favour of puberty blockers for confused children and the end to all single-sex resources and spaces, you ought at least to own it. Tell us why. Otherwise, you’re just a man throwing rocks at a woman because all your mates are doing the same.
As I said yesterday, I don't suppose Columbus has given the subject much thought, beyond picking up on the general opinions of the nice "be kind" sort of people with whom he mixes. For them trans people are an oppressed minority to whom Rowling is, inexplicably, unpleasant. And that's it.
