Virulent? She’s got the most basic opinions of your average American moderate. You don’t know what virulent looks like, and if you want to know just browse ovarit for a bit.
The average US moderate does not give a toss about transgender people. Meanwhile JK Rowling has made ranting about this tiny minority a huge part of her personal brand. She tweets constantly about transgender people. So the idea that her opinions are that of an average US moderate are laughable, to say the least.
JKR thinks she’s fighting Death Eaters, fictionalised fascists, for goodness sakes.
And JKR regularly moves to support people like Kellie-Jay Keen, who straight up says the more extreme parts out loud. For example Keen suggests that US men should use women’s toilets and threaten any women they think might be trans with a gun. JKR has gone so far as to offer monetary support for Keen, so she can file SLAP suits against people criticising her online.
If one is defending her, rather virulent, transphobia, I’d argue it does constitute “doing a transphobia” actually.

So yes. Virulent.

No, no we definitely know. If you defend unrepentant transphobes you yourself are a transphobe and should go fuck yourself.

You can be Marsha P. Johnson and it would still be transphobic if you publicly defend transphobes, not that they would have done that.
It’s not about who you are, it’s about what you do.
Izzard who is, famously, not trans.

Well, the important thing is that you have learned how to ignore that particular bigotry entirely. Well done!
