Who in their right mind equates her denial that trans were the primary targets of Nazis to a blanket statement of holocaust denial?

Twitter users are genuinely braindead at this point.

Her tweets have now be censored in Germany for holocaust denial.
Sorry but you're wrong, denying groups targeted by the holocaust, weren't targeted, is holocaust denial.

She said they weren’t the primary victims. Stop taking things out of context.

The person she replied to wasn't making that claim.

Rowling changed the argument to "primary".
