Are there any good sources about celebrities changing their mind, one way or the other, about trans people? I'm especially looking for people who didn't change their minds purely because of a personal experience (ie. family or friend transitioning) but for political reasons.
And ideally, I'd rather find a study, or anything a bit more developed and sourced than your average news outlet. But I'll take anything really.

@ombremad@mangezdespomm.es Stephen Fry recently made the pivot. A few years ago he happily made TV shows with his good friend JKR and verbally mistreated and blocked (trans) people who called him out for that on Mastodon. Recently, he voiced his support for trans rights and trans people in an interview. When exactly he pivoted is unknown and I have yet to see any apologies or reparations for the harm he caused during his TERF phase.

@ombremad I don't know about already published articles. There are databases existing where we could look for that, with proper parsers.
