When it comes to JK Rowling, absolutely. She's pretty firmly in TERF territory, and holds pretty damaging views when it comes to those of us who are trans/gender non-conforming.

She isn’t “hateful” because she disagrees. Is she not allowed to have an opinion that challenges the orthodoxy? People mix up “hate” with “opinion.” Disagreeing with something isn’t hating people.
Really depends on the opinion, doesn't it?

If I would say my opinion is white people are inferior and violent, or Christians are primitive and a danger to society, would that not be hateful?

What exactly has JK Rowlings said that is "hateful"?
