You’re not understanding the point then.

Not having sales(and having the price at 30 instead 29.99) is just them being upfront about the minimum they’ll take and always taking that minimum. I used to work for a company that did the same thing, no sales ever, which meant that people would never feel like they missed a…

Tate has “certain medical problems” that constituted a doctor check-up

I’d pay to see Mel Brooks live and he’s 96

Is he still going to lecture his young Black audience with sanctimonious rants about how they need to pull up their britches?

My main criteria for separating the art from the artist are

This you?

The vast majority of the western world are TERFs.

The people who made the game are already paid. The only people hurt by a boycott of this game are Rowling and Warner. Both have more money then God, but Rowling sees the constant flow of income as support for her views and Warner could be motivated to stop helping her with that.

You’re so right! Better eat at chic-fil-a every day so you can support those poor workers there!

“i just want to relive my beloved childhood memories and not everything has to be a huge political or moral statement”

This pisses me off to no end because there are people who will never see another day because of the bigotry Rowling promotes and you don’t care because you so desperately need that nostalgia hit. I…

Even if somehow JK Rowling died today and her estate was dissolved, I still wouldn’t want to buy a game based in the world created by a TERF. Especially when even the books themselves are problematic. And if you still want to support that, thats fine. But the way I see it, your love for consumerism mattered more to…

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.

“Your choice to purchase, or not to purchase, this game has absolutely no impact on Rowling.”

“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. 

And who do you think inspires people to commit those murders, who shifts those people’s worldviews enough that they make the decision that a trans person’s life isn’t valid?

and she celebrates every single time that happens.
