JK Rowling, Joe Rogan and Elon Musk are fuming over Scotland’s hate crime law
politico.eu
It was no April Fool’s joke.
Harry Potter author-turned culture warrior J.K. Rowling kicked off the month with an 11-tweet social media thread in which she argued 10 transgender women were men — and dared Scottish police to arrest her.
Rowling’s intervention came as a controversial new Scottish government law, aimed at protecting minority groups from hate crimes, took effect. And it landed amid a fierce debate over both the legal status of transgender people in Scotland and over what actually constitutes a hate crime.
Already the law has generated far more international buzz than is normal for legislation passed by a small nation’s devolved parliament.

"Nazi" is short for National Socialism, yes, as in social ownership of the means of production in service of the national state. Don't confuse the lazy modern usage of the term "socialism" for the actual historical definition.
And the whole point OP was making is Rowling and Trump are not working together. In fact, they take diametrically opposed stances on most, if not all, issues. And even if you see the end result as equal, they do not agree on this issue either. Their motivations are very different.
