Seems he’ll be going to prison precisely because he has a hard time letting teenagers go.

Imagine being SO INSECURE that you blow up your whole criminal enterprise because you can’t let a comment from a teenager go?

“We are long, long past the point of “Vote with your wallet” mattering to JK Rowling.”

People who are making this argument are missing the fucking point. Rowling GETS OFF on how successful she and her IP are despite protestations. If HL made a shit ton of money it won’t matter to her bank account but it WILL matter to her continued shit-eating grin insistence that people agree with her hateful rhetoric.…

What a douche.  That was the perfect response from Ms. Thunberg, no need to twitter battle a small man with obvious insecurities.  

An ironic comment, considering you cared enough to open the link to this story and click “reply” multiple times to make multiple comments.

Nobody would mind Harry Potter of Joanna had just taken her riches and lived in her castle and found something constructive to do with her time that’s not “be a ringleader for a hate movement.” Nobody regrets their Hunger Games fandom because of anything Suzanne Collins says because you don’t hear a peep from her.

I’m pretty sure that the person you’re replying to is arguing that WB bought a license because it is a well established franchise with many fans. This part:

Usually I’m pretty good about separating the art from the artist, you have to as a pro wrestling fan, but I just can’t with J.K. Maybe because she is constantly doubling down on being TERF on social media. Which is a shame because Hogwarts Legacy sounds exactly like the Harry Potter game I always wanted back in the…

“just ignore it and it’ll pass over time”

It’s not really “looking for reasons” when Rowling has very publicly made those statements…but this is all spoken like someone who probably has never had to deal with comments like these directed and them. Must be nice. 

People aren’t “looking for reasons” to be angry. People are rightfully angry over transphobia, and this game is based on the franchise created by one of the world’s most visible transphobes. And fuuuuuuuuuck you and your stance of “ignore it and it’ll go away”. That’s not how social change works. The trans community…

The bigger crime is yet another open world RPG is being crammed down our throats. 

and she celebrates every single time that happens.

I haven’t bought anything Harry Potter related ever since the real life version of Dolores Umbridge decided to flap her gums and expose her bigotry to the world.

The GOP base truly believes that everyone cheats, everyone lies, etc. etc. It would blow their minds to find out that there are people who don’t have to do those things to be successful. 

Or the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. All three descriptors in the label are false.

Some folks take a label without understanding, AT ALL, what the label means.

Larry would not besmirch women like that.

Larry is Love.
