I'm not sure what the problem is then, go watch something else. If you like fantasy, I'm hearing good things about both A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon.
The problem is JK Rowling is a lame ass Transphobe.
And what exactly is having a sour attitude because you don't like a famous person's opinions supposed to do, exactly?
It isn't that I don't like her opinions, it is that she espouses an ideology that results in material harm to humans and uses her position of fame and fortune to accelerate bigotry.
Not the same as having an opinion I just "don't like".
Don't engage the conservative troll.
Thank you for the reminder to disengage, I just wanted to state publicly why the troll was wrong in case anybody else here is confused by me having such a strong reaction.
I don't go around hating on movie and tv show threads just because I don't like the opinions of the creators, that framing trivializes the very real harm being caused by JK Rowling and her pathetic transphobia.
JK Rowling is an immensely, stupendously powerful person and what does she choose to do with that power?
She uses it to pick on vulnerable young adults who are already stigmatized by their society, how pathetic and weird is that?
This is not something we can tolerate powerful people doing, yes it sucks that so many people loved Harry Potter but the reality is the reality, JK Rowling needs to be cast out of cultural relevance. Real trans people under real threat are more important than our nostalgic attachment to a fake wizard school.
Example of a Real British Wizard who we failed to protect as they protected us because of our daily intimacy with casual bigotry.
It's exactly the same, but you're probably too tolerant to see that.
