Contrapoints: J.K. Rowling's trans bigotry

Excellent breakdown of the indirect kind of trans bigotry exemplified by Rowling. It's a complex and lengthy video but well worth the time to understand much of the broader bigotry hiding behind claims for free speech and against political correctness and cancel culture.

"Indirect bigotry manifests as 'concern' or 'debate' about a host of proxy issues. It's often defensive in tone rather than offensive. Frequently the claim is that a once needed liberation movement has now gone too far, that it's now the activists who are the new oppressors, who are disturbing law and order with violent and chaotic protests, who are victimizing and silencing innocent people by calling the bigots. Who are infiltrating the media and replacing good old-fashioned entertainment with politically correct propaganda [...] because cancel culture is out of control and free speech is under attack" (22:02).
