#Read Another Book

"Well I WASN'T gonna watch the show about the deeply discriminatory wizard world that thinks slavery is cool and good with writing that constantly employs racist and homophobic and bigoted metaphors and language written by a violent transphobe who pals around with nazis that has stated multiple times that she considers all engagement with her work, ESPECIALLY monetary engagement (money that she uses millions upon millions of to fund discriminatory organizations and legislation by the way), to be validation of her views but you were kinda mean about it on tumblr so you've really twisted my arm here"

The Slytherin fixation always fucked me up

The victim complex white people and tbh a good chunk of nonblack poc have is so strong they read a nepotism baby club that's VERY blatantly a white supremacy metaphor right down to inbreeding and somehow,someway,they turned THEM into the 'discriminated' ones.The priviliged asf get away with everything praised by everyone white rich kids are 'discriminated against' for being 'ambitious'.As if ambition is a persecuted trait,as if they're ambitions weren't to gain power to further hurt people and be all powerful authority figures,as if they didn't constantly HAVE that power as adults as seen with Malfoy's dad and Snape and tons of others?We're never given any indication Slytherins are bullied for being Slytherins but we DO see the reverse,that the Slytherin House gives you social influence at Hogwarts and post-graduation because again,white nepotism baby founding ground.Y'all called them gay and even trans-coded too and 'reclaimed them'

Draco Malfoy was like THE symbol of neurotypical white cishet male violence to me as a teen when i was into the series because i grew up getting bullied and abused for being black biracial,audhd with mdd and gnc trans and now i have anxiety,bpd and ptsd thanks to it.I never got the appeal of him because i knew if he was real or i was an HP character he would've tormented me to no end and so would've literally EVERY other Slytherin and that's why when i was a Potterhead i'd only be friends with other people who saw that because 'Slytherin Pride' disgusted and angered me so much,as did calling 'Slytherins are mean' a 'stereotype'.The absolute removal of responsibility and accountability and glamorization to the fucking Wizard Nazis spoke volumes to me and now i was right the whole time since i'm lucky enough most of the friends i made through the fandom realized HP on every level,fanon AND canon,is not only unsalvagable and not worth their time but actively hateful to support and gave it up too to move on to better series and discover themselves like they deserve just like i do.There's a reason Hp fans are the tropenamers of 'Draco in Leather Pants' and 'Ron The Death Eater'-That's what they've always been about.Coddling and godifying oppressors and demonizing and downplaying the oppressed.Joke KKK Rofling really did raise y'all

Please don't follow me if you're a Harry Potter fan. I'll just block you.

My trans friends mean the world to me. I simply won't stomach anything to do with that transphobic bitch.

Why are there so many Harry Potter fans in the fuck/anti Jkr/Rowling tags? I want to see general criticism of her not hypocrites pretending to hate her while still gushing about her characters. They are still her characters, you are still supporting her.

i started a podcast where i explain young adult fiction to my friends (not young adults) who react in real time

taking suggestions!

[arctic-hands]

I'm all for mourning Maggie Smith but if you put harry potter shit on my dash I'm unfollowing you

[i-am-trans-gwender]

My best moment was when I used an entire class period of English for my presentation on why Harry Potter and JK Rowling were both always bad. The class was dead silent when I was done.

[venusdamenace]

So, we can pretty much all agree that if you're still an active Harry Potter fam and/or merch consumer at this point, then you share Joanne's opinions right? Like you're basically a TERF and a Holocaust Denier. And extremely complicit in the hate she spreads with the anti-trans legislation she helps pass and the hate groups she funds.

For the love of the gods, please read a different book. Or at least pirate and steal the Harry Potter merch you consume.

[hotpocket-fucker]

Man, people who:

-Hate Harry Potter but suck J.K's cock for her stupid tweets

-AND those who love HP but squirm at J.K's shitass opinions

Are both so goddamn retarded and spineless my god I cannot even BEGIN...

Ain't no way we got 19 yr old r*dfems on here now 💀 idc that you're a legal adult you are not old enough to have an Opinion on anything queer, much less transgender theory

Hot take: If you buy and stream Hogwarts Legacy, I don't care if you have a donation to Trevor Project or whatever, you're still signal boosting the terf creator and the game itself.

Paying indulgences to a good cause does not erase the bad.

Rowling and the game studio don't care about how much money charity gets. They only see their own sales.

I haven't forgotten about the time when people wouldn't stop bringing up Harry Potter when discussing politics. I will never forget
