For 90% of people, he will.

Yep. The significance of minorities to those with power is the issue here, after all. I'm aware most people will happily continue supporting a bigot who makes things that please them.

I've read her writing on the subject and it's rather a stretch to call her a bigot. It's possible to have a subtle position where you believe the rights of one group shouldn't override another. How can we possibly discuss a subject when someone like her, who can write thoughtfully but holds a different but not totally oppositional position is attacked so vehemently?

I've also tried to read her books and think they're pretty pants. Boring stories, bad prose, tiresome characters.
