Absolutely anything but complete capitulation is transphobic. The dogwhistles they're suggesting are there: JKR doesn't think TWAW. JKR doesn't want the age of informed consent to drop even lower, so she "erases" young trans people.

As with other termonology, they're using dogwhistle wrong & obscuring the issue. Women have been saying (no one is hearing us/them due to twitter, facebook & google search practices) that Transwomen are not women. It's a perfectly rational comment. They called the Oxford Dictionary definition posted on a billboard a dogwhistle. It really isn't, we're out an out saying transwomen are transwomen, a subset of men. For some inexplicable reason, those in control of media go, oh, ok they're transphobic while I'm almost certain they agree that humans born male can't actually change sex (although some indoctrination is so complete I wonder about others.)

People agree with us, they just think it's rude and heartless to point things out to the most oppressed (well funded, well connect astroturf) among us. This response is typical, for how a woman is treated. With the exception of Glinner & perhaps Jonny Best, men do not get rape & death threats, calls to their employer, or doxxed.

Dig into how Meghan Murphy's treatment, or Posie Parker's. A notable exception is Fair Cop, where a man got a talking to by UK police for liking a limeric God help me, I missed a good portion of this too. Lesbians ever since Michfest, have been trying to get our attention.

You're absolutely right, JKR said nothing transphobic, but as she can't easily be cancelled, she's a major threat to the house of cards that supports their whole message. Sunlight is their worst nightmare. And when people realize they've been lied to and manipulated (those that don't double down, like the people who won't even read JKR's message) there will be hell to pay. 3 guesses who'll be to blame. Edit: typos.

And after she took the stand, all the subreddits got banned. Can't have people actually going to reddit to read our arguments, god forbid--they're too logical. God forbid people actually listen to well-informed women, listen to LGB people with concerns, listen to de-transitioners, or.....think critically.
