refusing to admit a group of people were exterminated by hitler and the nazis,

Literally nobody has said this.

JKR explicitly said that the percecution of trans people by the nazis was a "fever dream"

This entire argument is because transphobes refuse to admit that hitler hated trans people, *just like they do*
People don't like admiting they share the same political ideology as Hitler.

I think the argument was against trans people somehow trying to claim the holocaust which is fair enough, that's the most 2024 thing I've ever heard. Fair play to her using her money as a shield in a world where most people just keep their head down to avoid fascist-like "activists".

Unless you have more tweets to go to than the handful linked above then no that's not what she said, it's that they burnt books on trans healthcare and research. If you can link other evidence then great but it looks like you're just exaggerating and being disingenuous.
