That’s a huge stretch.

Not at all. In fact, denial is a common tactic. See the “racism doesn’t exist” crowd for a prime example. I think you’ll find it’s full of racists.

Alright so first off; denying your incorrect claim that she makes money from this game is not the same as “outright transphobia”. That statement is actually deranged.
Secondly, WB owns the rights to HP games, as mentioned elsewhere in the comments.
This hill isn’t the one to die on, my guy.

I don’t know if you’re just confidently incorrect or intentionally lying, but either way, you’re wrong. Rowling owns the rights to the Harry Potter IP, a fact that can easily be verified using multiple sources with a simple search. As such, she makes royalties on every single use of the IP.
