Personally I think the comment could’ve been worded better as it can be interpreted either as

… is always the excuse for fascism

(I.E. Fascists use the excuse, provably correct and can be generalised to authoritarianism in general) However I do see that it could potentially be taken the other way as

… is always the excuse for fascism …

(I.E only those who used the excuse are fascists, completely false) I used the principle of charity and assumed the inital argument was logical, though its understandable if others aren’t willing to do that

To quote wikipedia’s summery:

…Whited asserted in 2024 that Rowling’s sometimes “flippant” and “simplistic understanding of gender identity” had permanently changed her “relationship not only with fans, readers, and scholars … but also with her works themselves”.
