So, the trans people who are misgendered can just get over it then. You know, because only words were said and feelings were hurt.
Are you comparing misgendering to saying dont buy that game because a bigot made it? What a spectacularly dumb comparison.

When people are attacked for consuming Harry Potter media, the only ones who are bothered are the ones who are not transphobic.

The hurt they feel is, of course, not comparable to attacks on the existence of LGBT people, but it still exists. Meanwhile, the transphobic Potter fans just enjoy the fact that they 'trigger' the libs.

By all means, attack Rowling for her vile views, but non transphobic Potter fans? They shouldn't be the target of abuse. They don't deserve it, and I don't see how it helps anyone.
So what if people are a little bothered? Thats life. Theyll get over it. Youre ignoring the effect that solidarity can have by people expressing their feelings that something is unjust. You think it doesnt make trans people feel good when they see others sticking up for them? Of course it does.

The mean words only hurt the Harry Potter fans who aren't transphobic.

The transphobes revelled in the provocation.
I just dont think such attacks are consequential. Not compared to the kinds of attacks LGBTQ+ people face for existing.
