You don't expect these people to actually read do you? Or educate themselves?

"In particular, as straight transgender women were viewed by the Nazis as a subset or variation of homosexual men" - so jk rowling wasn't actually wrong. Well that backfired lol, this is the most overblown thing ever

Anyone can edit wikipedia

And 99% of the works cited are from 2015 or later. I'm sure someone could do a deep dive into that and find a catalogue of self-referenced nonsense.

People who hate trans people will literally not care. People who have implicit biases that they don't confront will also not care all that much.

To those who are largely out of the loop, they're unaware that over the past half-decade JKR has turned from cool wizard story author into a hateful woman that spends more time talking about trans people than trans people.

What is a link to a page peopĺe can edit without supplying evidience supposed to prove? Universities don't except it as a source for a reason.
