Congratulations On Outing Yourself As A Multi-faceted Bigot Overflowing With Wilful Ignorance And In
Congratulations on outing yourself as a multi-faceted bigot overflowing with wilful ignorance and in possession of not a single atom of maturity or capability for understanding.
Trans people are upset that an anti-Semitic game created by a bigoted, racist TERF is being supported, the funds of which will in portion be given to anti-trans propaganda efforts. Every time you buy something HP related, JKR gets money. Money which she then openly brags about donating to campaigns and charities and political corporations who are anti-LGBT+ and whom are actively harmful to the LGBT+ community as a whole. That a single, non-relevant trans character is being included as a poor shield against the rightful claims of transphobia and bigotry.
Jewish people are upset that a heavily anti-Semitic game is being created based off the anti-Semitic lore of the original books and movies, despite Jewish people pointing out the first twice that its offensive and anti-Semitic. They've told us time and time again that the representations, historical adaptations and lore of things within the HP world are copy-pastes of anti-Semitic propaganda. That JKR specifically took components used in the Holocaust propaganda and put them in a game targeted at teens and young adults.
@chickpeathief made a detailed, wonderful post explaining the intricacies of the latter, and I highly recommend reading it before you open your mouth and declare the trans and/or Jewish people rightfully upset that the game is being upheld over blatant bigotry are "autistic trans crybabies who should die mad about it and shut up because they make the community of people happy to support a rampantly bigoted woman look bad."
If you honest to god look at people who are upset about JKR being repeatedly allowed to harm others just because she wrote some magical universe you're balls deep in, and you have the audacity to demean them, you really need to take a long look at yourself and take a step back from the internet and evaluate who you are as a person. This is appalling.
Woke and maybe trans and/or autistic crybabies are really spoiling the story of Hogwart's Legacy as if that's anything other than a thinly veiled childish and petty act. As if that's gonna deter people from playing the game lmao
"Grow up and read a different book!1!1!1! Play a different game!!1!1!1!"
How about you grow up and realize that you're making yourselves and the LGBT+ community look leagues worse every day.
Die mad about it.

no because i just remembered a few extra things that make the teen wolf m*vie even more of a pathetic exercise in clownery:
allison staying Alive and getting back together w/ scott means that they’re doing a dan/serena in s3 of gossip girl (in that they are dating. while their parents are ALSO dating. ew. gross. what the fuckkkkk)
the age gap between malia and parrish is JUST as gross as when they tried to make lydia and parrish a thing in s5 and it’s disgusting and i hate parrish on the basis that he is an empty husk of a character who’s always Just There and Shirtless Whilst On Fire
speaking of, derek dies by setting himself on fire. FIRE. the same thing that killed HIS FUCKING FAMILY????? and he sets himself on fire in front of his own son which he would never do because he went through the same thing when he watched his family die???? 🥴 huh?????
isaac took the box that contained the nogitsune in it w/ him to like france or whatever. so how the fuck do liam and discount!kira have it with them in JAPAN?????
the logistics of derek having a 15 yr old child is so ridiculously dumb like they didn’t even TRY with that it makes no sense and the only person who could be the mother is fucking kate argent (derek’s literal rapist) and i hate that so much
stiles would never leave the jeep behind. the jeep is the only thing he has left of his mother. why would he leave it in beacon hills and then never return to beacon hills. lmao.
in the s3 finale, the pack defeats the nogitsune with a WOLF BITE. because he “can’t be a fox and a wolf” (direct quote!). so how the fuck does the nogitsune come back and turn into a *squints* FOX WOLF HYBRID is this even real-
lydia said that her grandmother had banshee premonitions of her own gf dying, and even though she tried to prevent it, her gf died anyway. so how can lydia be 100% sure that if she breaks up with stiles, he still won’t die????? lmao
how are derek and scott both true alphas if there’s only 1 in like a 1000 years or whatever the fuck i forgot but. it’s still stupid
there’s probably more but yeah this is what happens when you can’t just leave well enough alone. let things end. not every piece of media needs a reboot revival requel sequel spinoff whatever. just let things go instead of sacrificing your fans and creativity for a soulless cash grab 🫥
Begging pleading needing people to let Billy Hargrove exist without Max Mayfield. Write it on my grave header. Tattoo it on my forehead.
Not everything in context of Billy has to be about, revolve around or relate to Max.
He's his own person. Neil Hargrove forcibly made Billy's life revolve around and to a degree be controlled by Max. I'm literally begging you to stop carrying that trend into fandom and how you interact with fandom content. There's nothing wrong with creating a better, healthier relationship between them but I'm dog-sick of seeing people acting like Billy's entire existence relies on Max. Like there's no feasible value in Billy surviving and thriving unless he's still shackled to Max and to the idea of being her responsible, doting brother.
He was an abused teen shoved into a replacement family that was weaponised against him. Whatever responsibilities you think Billy has to Max I can assure you don't exist.
An actor who is openly okay with their character being shipped with other characters or who is openly okay with being shipped with their costars/friends is not automatically giving you permission to engage them in it or push it on them.
It is not an open invitation to send them explicit ship art or tag them in ship posts or ask them inappropriate questions at Cons. It is not an open invitation to try to dig out their sexuality or use their stance on shipping as "evidence" that they're X or not X.
"I am okay with people having creative perspectives on my relationships." =/= "I am okay with being forced to constantly see it, be asked about it or have it impact my life."
I've seen people bringing explicit art to conventions for the actors to sign and for some of them it has very clearly made them uncomfortable. Even if its not intended to be RPF you are still using their exact likeness in pornography.
Unless you know with 100% certainly that someone is okay with being actively engaged in something, don't try to push their involvement. Stop asking them invasive questions at panels. Stop bringing explicit art or fanfiction to meets.
In real terms, its like when your parents or friends insist you have a crush on someone or you must be secretly dating. It makes things uncomfortable, awkward, and after a point it gets frustrating and upsetting. There are countless examples of famous people who've had their lives impacted by people trying to force ship content on them, be it by destroying their real-life relationships or just by making them actively resent the characters, fans and/or ships.
Septiplier (Youtubers Mark Fischbach/Markiplier and Seán McLoughlin/Jacksepticeye) is a prime example of this, where fans were so determined to actively force them to engage with shipping that it began to negatively impact their friendship and real-life relationships to the extent that for a while they took a break on being publicly seen as interacting.
To summarize; Creating ship content and shipping characters or RPF is fine and valid, but unless an actor has explicitly said they are happy to be engaged in it or presented with it, you should do your due diligence to make sure you're not exposing them to content or trying to force that content to sway/impact/represent reality. (E.g; many straight actors are perfectly fine with their fans creating queer RPF, and it does not "provide proof" that they're actually not straight.)
To make it clear; this account nor I support in any way JK Rowling, the Harry Potter franchise or any other franchises she's dipped her bigoted little toes in, however.
Some of you who are just making emotional rage posts with no sensical point, threats, no information or evidence, ect, are just doing more harm than good. And I don't mean the actual posts from trans and Jewish people expressing they're hurt. I mean the all caps 'I hope your family burns if you buy the game' kind of posts.
JK Rowling is wealthy, influential and self-assured. If we're going to have any impact at all on a woman who's experienced that amount of success in her life, its not going to be by screaming into the Tumblr void.
Email your local bookstores, chain stores, supply stores, ect and, with evidence, present to them why they should remove Harry Potter merchandise from their stores. If you're also doing so, you can inform them you will be staging peaceful protests, boycotts of their stores, ect. (I got two of my local chain stores to stop selling rawhide dog products this way. If you present the facts and the brutal reality of how damaging something can be for their profits and business, they tend to listen.)
Send letters and emails to your local libraries and book clubs and schools. The same as above; politely inform them of the facts and ask them to remove anti-semitic propaganda from their resources. Print out informative leaflets and ask to leave them at the desk or in waiting rooms.
People are still, no matter what, going to want to buy Harry Potter merchandise, so instead of buying from retailers and corporate producers, show them small businesses and independent artists! Not only are you supporting an individual person, but JKR won't get a single penny of that sale. Royalties? No Ma'am. Not in this house. JKR has openly bragged about her royalty cheques. A significant portion of those is merchandise and licensing.
Share the information, evidence and perspectives of the Jewish and trans people being impacted, profited off and ignored! Perhaps the most important part! If you're just claiming the lore and plots are antisemitic, show why! Share the voices of the people being harmed and ignored! Tumblr is actually great for that. There are a multitude of detailed, informative posts on here that need a louder voice. Link them. Share them. Send screenshots or cited copies to people.
And lastly, try to be patient and understanding when trying to help people see the facts and bigger picture. Not everyone will fully grasp the points and gravitas of it the first go around. They might not fully understand the points being presented, and that's okay. We've all seen a news headline and rolled our eyes and dismissed it as dramatic fearmongering only to later see more information and realize that, actually, it is a big issue.
(Actually also lastly is please don't resort to violence and death threats and harassment. It accomplishes nothing and will only be weaponised against the actual people and posts providing information, resources and activism. Don't give them a reason to ignore those posts and focus on mockery and spite.)
hmmmm maybe i would jus like 2 look out for others and warn everyone 2 be careful and to avoid an actual dangerous predator. srry for not being clear on that
While I appreciate the attempted clarity; the original post wasn't about the user being a pedophile or known abuser. That had no relevance and wasn't physically mentioned at all. That wasn't what the OP (presumably, you, hello there) was trying to warn for or was accusing the user of.
You weren't warning people they should block a known, real-life pedophile and abuser. That is not what you said in your post.
