Every time I see Harry Potter or J.K. Rowling’s name in the news I look for comments like these to restore a tiny bit of my sanity.

It’s disappointing that even here on the fediverse people are cheering for the franchise of someone who’s sole motivation these days seems to be hating trans people.

I think it’s really interesting that the christians used to have a huge hate boner for Harry Potter when I was growing up but now it’s shifted to the left sphere. They all kinda flip flopped

Considering how many people didn’t vote for Kamala because they weren’t 100% happy with her stance on Palestine; yes, you dense motherfucker.

Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. Especially when you’ve only ever read one book.

There’s about a thousand and one other people involved with the franchise after 8 movies, 3 spinoff movies, a play and a dozen or so videogames.
Rowling is pretty much irrelevant and people aren’t into the HP stuff because they particularly want to give her money.

She is directly benefitting from the sales and people buying Harry Potter stuff know that.

Yeah so are about a thousand other people who worked on the franchise/product in question and may be very positive influences on the world.
Trying to deny a literal billionaire money is symbolic at best.

Do you feel the same about boycotting Tesla?
