I am desperately hoping James May takes the bait on his fatter doppelganger here. He remarked on the recent outcry about the Jew stabber in a manner the enraged the NPCs, if he gets drawn in on this one it could be fun.
Do trannies ever expound upon the exact instances how JKR is genociding them? I've never seen a single one point to a list or anything, which is exaclty what they'd love to do if any of it were true. I just wondered if anyone has actually seen this rare unicorn interaction personally.

Every death is on her hands, regardless of any of the actual circumstances. God help you if you try to get anyone to expand on why "she's just the worst" in meaningful terms, because then you're endangering trans lives.

She gave birth to Epstein and built his island, which is where transphobia was invented, then she spent hundreds of brazillion dollars in stopping US and UK trannies from existing, and every attack on any troon is her fault even if from a fellow troon. I mean this is simple and well-known stuff (*), what don't you understand?

If the trans thing doesn't stick, you just need to make a video with a thumbnail that says, "JKR Doesn't Like Women (Among Many other Groups of People)"

The title of the video should be "I THINK based on nothing that you're supposed to hate Hermione". The entire basis of this 24 minute long video – and only the last ten minutes are actually about the subject matter of the title – is his gut feeling and RDS.
He also claims that the female characters in her books are written to be incredibly unsympathetic and that you're supposed to point and laugh at characters such as Neville, Filch, Luna Lovegood and that retard who keeps taking pictures of Harry in book 2 for being gross and weird. I'm not really sure how he came to the conclusion that you're expected to dislike Neville and Luna considering that both of them are massive fan favorites. He also lies about why Filch is hated. Filch is hated because he's a sadist who wants to torture students for breaking the rules, not because he can't do magic.
Also, Elon Musk, because somehow he has something to do with Harry Potter.
As is always the case with terminally ill RDS sufferers, this video says a lot more about him and how he's coping and seething because the Wizard Lady refused to suck girldick than it does about the books themselves.

Neville is written as a loser and meek introvert in books 1-4. I can see the premise but Neville redeems himself a lot in books 5-6 and has the biggest balls in Gryffindor by book 7.
Luna is written as a weirdo who has no friends and even Harry & Co mostly tolerate her out of pity. It isn’t until she shows unyielding, near fatal loyalty towards Harry that she’s written more sympathetically.
The neat thing about fleshed out characters is that they’re not meant to be Mary/Gary Sues and instead have nuance alongside good/bad traits.
But the homo onscreen seems to think in absolutes like a total midwit and thinks first impressions are all you need to know and understand about a character.
Yes, Hermione is written occasionally as suffocating, condescending, and over-emotional, but you tell me of a single character in a 7 year story that doesn’t have a bad moment or two.
Hell, by his logic, Harry isn’t supposed to be liked by anyone if his teenage angst in book 5 is anything to go by.
Do you really expect this dishonest narc to explain that Filch is the biggest narc and thus disliked by troublemakers and mischievous souls like the protagonists?

She's also a lot more likeable in the books than the films, is he sure he isn't getting confused and mistaking Emma Watson's terrible acting and personality for book Hermione?

Damn. It's almost like maybe Rowling was trying to say something about hidden depths and there's more to people than your first impression of them. I swear, every criticism these dumbos have of the characters actually says more about them than it does about Rowlings intentions for the characters.

Agree, it seems clear he’s talking about the re-interpreted shallow movie versions of the characters. Even Neville is more complex from the beginning compared to his description, and Luna is accepted by Harry and friends because they make some effort to be kind, which is much more the point than that they pity her.
That said, the first 3-4 books are pretty fluffy and not very well-written. I have always appreciated this because I happened to be at the age when I was able to read the books as they came out, and they grew in complexity with me. Looking back on Harry Potter as if JK Rowling intended it as some epic of English literature is retarded.
Neville has to deal with his parents being literally insane because they were tortured by Voldemort's minions and his overbearing bad ass grandma constantly comparing him to his parents who were in the top tier of aurors before they got fucked up. They were the only other people to stand up to Voldy twice and live besides Harry's parents before he heard a bastardized version of the prophecy. No wonder the kid was having fucking difficulty with performance anxiety he came from a long line of pure bred fucking champs.
All of this context is almost entirely missing from the movies.
Gosh! Are you telling me you think it's ok to not like her books without also thinking she's literally Hitler? We can't have that level of independent thought here!
Rowling has stated that Hermione ending up with Ron is "wish fulfillment" which rather implies to me that Hermione is a self-insert, making the video's entire conceit even more amusing.
It's like the people treating the books' obviously bad worldbuilding as some type of gotcha. Somehow they can't see the obvious: she is a woman and people don't read Harry Potter for worldbuilding.

I assumed it was wish fulfillment for people who relate to Ron.
He spends most of the series playing second fiddle to his famous, talented best friend, and he naturally assumes Harry will get the girl he's interested in because Harry gets everything Ron wants. In the end, it turns out Harry never wanted fame, or destiny, or Hermione. He just wants a loving family, so marrying Ginny and becoming part of the Weasley clan gives him that. Ron gets the girl, becomes a school sports hero, and learns that it's only his own insecurities making him feel like second best. It's a neat ending to both of their character arcs (also foreshadowed in the first book with the mirror of Erised).
Hermione clearly embodies many of Jo's values, but I don't think she's a strict self-insert and I doubt Ron is JKR's ideal man.
