J.K. Rowling recently said that she believes people agree with her transphobic opinions, but they’re just “afraid to speak up” on them. “Many are afraid to speak up because they fear for their jobs and even for their personal safety… this climate of fear serves nobody well, least of all trans people,” she claimed. Well, it turns out that people are definitely speaking up more about trans issues this year than before. They’re just not saying what Rowling likes: The hashtag #transrightsarehumanrights was by far the top growing hashtag in the year of 2020, exploding in usage by a whopping 557 percent. Similarly, usage of the hashtags #translivesmatter became more popular than last year by 113 percent. #allblacklivesmatter, typically use to emphasize and include Black LGBTQ+ lives that are sometimes excluded in mainstream media or by anti-LGBTQ supporters, grew by 112 percent. #blacktranslivesmatter, highlighting struggles and violence facing Black trans people, grew by 108 percent.
