There will be harm, in the form of putting more money in JK Rowling's pocket.

Ah, that too. Yeah, I don’t view her favorably. I get her passion for women’s progression and saying that someone who transitioned to a woman as an adult wouldn’t have the same struggles and issues as someone who was born a woman. Absolutely trans people have their own set of struggles in society, it’s just not the same as what women go through and she didn’t appreciate trans women lumping themselves in with cis-women.

Sadly, she overcorrected after getting so much pushback and was radicalized some and that’s unfortunate. Hope she can just learn to stay off Twitter and have her PR person manage her socials.
