They should be safe from Rowling's wrath, then. Troons don't shower, after all.

Harry Potter is for Millennials what Star Wars was for Generation X, or what The Lord of The Rings novels were to the Baby Boomers (albeit to a lesser extent) and I honestly think there's a lot of Zoomers who are sick of the franchise completely.
The more woke-inclined Early Zoomers are merely jumping on JK Rowling's "transphobia" as an excuse to trash the Millennial holy grail while the more "based" or "apolitical normie" Core Zoomers are trashing it because they'd wish Millennials would read another book.
Nah, a lot of the Millennials, particularly the Late Millennials born in the early 90's, tend to be the turbo-woke types as well, even if they're now a lot more punk and less hipster. The commie woke punk dangerhair mentality more or less got started with the Late Millennials (and the Core ones to a lesser extent)
The Early Zoomers are also a major component of the current SJW crowd but in all honesty, the only real difference between the Late Millennials and Early Zoomers is that the latter group were born in the late 90's. The Core Zoomers and Late Zoomers tend to lean more moderate or centrist but the Early Zoomers are a lot more woke, just like their Late Millennial brethren.
The Early Millennials born in the early-mid 80's have more or less aged out of the mainstream left and the Core Millennials tend to be the "think tank" SJW's. Also, keep in mind that Millennials are one of the more stunted generations in terms of psychological and social development to the point of being largely non-starters or late bloomers.
Seriously, the Zoomers are one of the most fragmented generations alive today with a lot of stark differences between the Early Zoomers born in the late 90's and the Core Zoomers born in the 2000's.

I think you're over-analysing this a bit here. Millennials are the biggest age demographic in the USA, at over 72 million people. The proportion of these people who are "SJWs" is a tiny fraction. Frankly I'd be surprised if it was even 10%; 7.2 million people screeching on Twitter would be an awful lot.

Younger people tend to lean left due to the fact they don't have much wealth to tax, which has been true for generations. However most are broadly relatively apolitical outside election season, and even then that boils down to what candidate they vote for rather than screaming about Harry Potter on the internet. It seems like your generational analysis is focusing very much on upper middle class people, and even out of them only the ones who have an unhealthy interest in popular culture, which isn't really that many.
In Britain young people overwhelmingly vote Labour for economic reasons, but despite being that age myself I've never met a single tranny or fanatical progressive in real life, just a lot of left leaning moderates. I believe some of my cousins might lean that way but they haven't really brought it up around me and I don't ask because I don't want to get into a shouting match over Christmas. Not having "fandom" interests helps massively in avoiding this sort of thing. This kind of autism is far less prevalent in actual literature, or classic cinema.

According to some MSM source, almost 30 million people attended at least one pro-BLM/anti-police "protest" in the past few months and the people arrested at those "protests" are almost all under 30, so 7.2 million screeching lunatics on Twitter seems like a reasonable estimate.

Yikes, if true.
Then again, let's be honest. Most of them just attended because of clout, or boredom.

There is an explanation for that: either in purpose or unconsciously, people needed to leave their homes after weeks or even months of being isolated.
You really can't blame them and if BLM knew of this, kudos for them for finally doing something right (even though it probably cost Biden the election).

That's Tatsuya Ishida from Sinfest.
I guess now we know which side of the TRA/TERF line his insufferable feminist ass sits.

That's fair. A friend recommended me Sinfest a couple years back and I read it in chronological order, from the start. It was really good, but once it got to the point of him going Full Woke (the whole Xanthe storyline) I lost patience with the comic and stopped reading it. I have no idea what he's been doing since.

Possibly, but even if it is that high a lot of them were just expressing general outrage at society or trying to steal and destroy things. I would expect only about 10% would care about what JK Rowling thought, though 3 million is still quite a lot.

He's not wrong, though.

I don't trust the MSM because these are the same lying shits who will take a rally and try to undersell or oversell the numbers whenever they feel like it. Ranging from openly showing doctored photos to trying to take angle shots to minimize counts. I am certain these fuckers are changing the number up to trick their pathetic amount of viewers into thinking they have more people agreeing with this than there really is.
But yes, a few million mongs is doable in a population of 300 million.

The Guardian says JK is okay and telling people to leave her alone. Twitter explodes.
Look at that ratio. Her career is dead.

The Guardian isn't completely wrong (I can't believe I just said that).
The resentment comes from the same SJWs who harass creators who don't align with their views instead of simply create something themselves.
The misogyny comes from the Looney Troons.

3 million is a big number until you consider that by some estimates that's about the number of people in the US who believe reptilian aliens run the government.
That's my question with the source, it's probably bad extrapolation from polling but 10-20 million people wouldn't surprise me.
The British left is full of people like JK Rowling who aren't totally down with troon ideology and end up smeared for it. It's actually surprising there aren't more leftists like that in the US.AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

not really, people running the show, like really pulling the strings of mass media and corporate are still Gen xers and boomers, gen x is the core generation from where intersectonality and critical theory became mainstream in academia so they were the first wave of graduates with than mentality. The older millenials are barely getting there to middle management positions. Unless by "think tank" you mean some breadtubers or podcasters or something like that, even in those cases like Hontra Points where the influencers would be millenials in their early 30s their audience would be overwhelmingly zoomers in their teens or early 20s, and zoomer is the generation that relies the most on social media pundits for their worldview.

It would appear that people are getting upset again.

The website appears to sell all kinds of "aww yeah I'm a woman fuck you" merch. Some of them take a very fascinating slant.
The store even has an entire section called "Gender Critical." (archive) It's full of some very lovely designs that convey a consistent message:
It goes on. Some of these are things I would buy. The fact that all the prices are in GBP makes me worry that they are operating without a transphobia loicense, though.
