I’m also confused. The Legacy game had a trans woman character in it. How did they get her to sign off on that? Did she have to relinquish creative control or something?

The issue with her - and also part of why she has so many supporters, still, including other celebrities - is that she tries to brand it as "I love trans people and agree with their right to exist," but then it completely breaks down into her own victimhood because she simultaneously believes that trans women have no place in women-centric spaces, and are in fact a danger to the rights and protections that women have fought so hard to achieve. So it's very "you're fine, but stay the fuck away from me and mine," which is still so close-minded and ignorant and hateful, but she wraps it up with a shiny "but I totally don't hate you - look, a trans Harry Potter character!" ribbon. And other boomers are of course very drawn to the "I don't hate you, I just can't support you" bullshit rhetoric.

You see she’s swung SO FAR with the TERFism it just feels like all-encompassing transphobia at this point

Yeah I feel like she's the sort of equivalent of people who say 'I have no issue with gay people, I just don't want to see it'.

She may have been like that once but she's far past that now

that was her rhetoric but at this point it's straight up 'trans women are a threat to children and women and gender affirming care is torture' so she's deep in the terf trenches
