I'd love to write this off as someone making a bad faith attack, but he's quite possibly that retarded and far down the rabbit hole that he believes saying you're a sex means you are that sex.
Also strange how these people seem to have zero cognitive dissonance as to why this isn't true for other things. I know it's overused, but if I say I'm a toaster, or a porcupine...why aren't I that? Why can't I be an Apache attack helicopter?! If it works for men and women, why not other things?
But yeah, while not certain, it's definitely possible he's just actually that delusion; he may actually believe Rowling writing under a pen name is "transitioning."
I'm 99% sure he's serious. It also sounds like he's transphobic if he conflates gender transition being comparable to writing a book under an assumed name.

So slightly unintentionally based?
