Oh I was thinking both familial estrangement (e.g., M*sk's daughter) as well as financial loss. There's nothing happy about family estrangement for anybody, of course. But seeing her take a financial hit would be particularly sweet because her responses to people who say things like "how can you live with yourself?" or "you've lost so many fans because of this!" has literally been bragging about how much money she gets from her IPs, implying that she considers the money she makes to be a clear sign that most people share her views or don't really care about trans people. It's why I've done my best to ensure that she'll never get a penny of my money until she sees the light as well as donating what little I make from my wizard rock tracks to orgs that support queer youth.
I fear she's too far gone to listen to any actual trans people or activists at this point, but my hope is that the Holocaust denial incident will lead her to seek out actual experts, like those who know the difference between Shoah (the persecution/murder of Jews by the Nazis) and the Holocaust (everyone the Nazis persecuted/murdered, including queer/trans folks), instead of relying on her toxic peer group. Specifically, I hope she educates herself or reaches out to scientists who study biological sex and the associated spectrum of anatomy, genetics, gene expression, hormonal variances. Basically to finally learn that sex is NOT binary and that gender essentialism is both unscientific and harmful. I think that could be a good first step away from the fascists. But I also acknowledge that it's wishful thinking at this point.
