? People like to express their beliefs, even if their beliefs are unpopular.

>JK Rowling could have been the world’s most beloved author forever if she was content to dislike trans people quietly rather than loudly.

Seems like evidence that she prioritizes expression over status.

This inconsistency on the part of the author struck me as well, apart from the obvious lie (it is not true that she "dislikes" trans people).
