Remember when we all used to love Rowling?You mean when we didnt know anything about her beyond the rags-to-riches narrative.
Pretty confident she doesnt own a mask.she was a pretty run of the mill liberal before

Why is she so full of hate?She got creeped on by a cis guy once therefore all trans women are bad.

hasn't she been "mask off" for the better part of a decade now?Not really. Up until now the anti-trans trolls defending her have been able to ask to see which transphobic comments Rowling has made, giving them the facade of respectability by pretending that they just haven't seen her objectionable comments. Now though there's just so much out there that they've given up the facade and admit what they believed all along which is that 'transphobic' doesn't exist as a concept and thus Rowling can't have said anything transphobic.

I don't really understand it myself but that's essentially what her argument is.

She had been careful in the past. It's been part of this whole sordid affair how "above" she kept herself from engaging in the coarser language while being content to let the less celebrity of the anti-trans movement get absolutely vile.
It's a new phase of the hate spiral. Now they can't pretend to be the respectable ones any more. Further increased radicalization and explicit calls for anti-trans discrimination are where we go from here.
Terfs in generally are so "anti-men" that they view Trans as Men attempting to hijack Women spaces.Terfs would have to actually go after men first for that to be true.
