I think he's just trying to make the libs mad. If I still had Twitter, I'd definitely be seeking the "how DARE you mention his holy name and prinkunce JK YAS KWEEN PBUH TERF MISTRESS ROWKING's name, Mr Putin, have you no shame, Sir?" comments.
The Tumblrinas had an identity crisis when Rowling came out as a TERF though. They had to kill their God. Ricky Gervais is about to swing to the alt-right too, but his fans already hate him at least.
