She ain't even subtle anymore lmao

[hiemalice]

Let me put it in simple explanation for all you brainless peeps out there:

Lovecraft: creator is dead and therefore makes no profit off work and is not given a platform to spread hate, okay to buy and talk about.

FNAF: creator makes profit and has funded conservative campaigns but does not use his voice to support it so its okay to pirate and talk about.

Harry Potter: creator is actively making profit off of and using the popularity to continue hate. will NOT stop spreading hate even if money is stopped through pirating, therefore not okay to buy, pirate, or talk about.

I hope this is fucking simple enough.

more examples of the intersection of ableism and queerphobia

JK Rowling’s essay about trans men specifically talked about how autistic girls are being lead astray by the trans movement

in some jurisdictions, people with cognitive and/or intellectual disabilities are not allowed to medically transition at all

again, psychotic people constantly being questioned about whether their identity is a delusion/hallucination or not

queer spaces not being accessible for those who use mobility aids (particularly wheelchairs)

disabled people not having access to sex education that specifically educates them on having sex whilst disabled — and abled people not bothering to learn the same

the concept that having someone who is both disabled and queer is “bad representation” somehow. constant messaging that you’re either one or the other and can’t be both

ideas in the queer community about what the queer lifestyle looks like often does not consider that the lifestyle is impossible for people who use mobility aids and/or have a carer

I could go on and on. disabled people are constantly excluded from queer movements and queer people are often excluded from disability movements. we’re ignored. we’re pushed aside. our needs are put in the “too hard” basket, and we’re not given necessary supports to live a happy life as a queer disabled person

do not tag this “q slur” or similar

waking up to new jk r*wling news

[theenbyroiderer]

Just had to block a couple people of the radfem terf-loving variety so seems like I need to post this again... I thought I was being clear when I use this as my profile pic! If you think that jkr is doing the good work or you are otherwise the sort of feminist that will exclude trans women then I don't want you on this page. I don't want you following me, I don't want you to share my stuff, I don't even want you to look at what I post. Don't even argue with me, just go away!

Daily reminder that JKRowling is a moronic TERF who is getting closer everyday to her "Hitler wasn't actually that bad" phase

[haunted-80s-arcade-game]

JK Rowling: I care about detransitioners and vulnerable women!

JK Rowling: Unless they’ve detransitioned because of an unaccepting and hostile environment towards trans people. Or because trans healthcare is no longer easily accessible. Or because they can’t afford the gender affirming healthcare they need. Fuck those people.

JK Rowling: I also don’t care about the women who disagree with me. Or the women whose issues intersect with trans issues. Fuck cis women who present in any way butch and are therefore at risk of being harassed in single-sex spaces. All cis women need to look exactly how I believe a woman should look. I will also side with male predators, fascists and anti-abortionists as long as they agree with me on my views. Nazis didn’t persecute trans people btw, in fact Hitler told the transgenders that they’re all so valid uwu and then personally funded their gender affirming surgeries.

JK Rowling: Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe— whom I have known since they were children— should be personally grovelling at my feet despite the fact that they are now grown adults leading busy and fulfilling lives instead of whining on Twitter all day. I will never bestow upon them forgiveness that they have not actually asked for because I’m jealous that they’re happy and content away from my shitty book series and I’m not.

JK Rowling: This is fine and I’m a good person and a feminist who definitely isn’t desperate for relevancy.

JK Rowling: I am also not part of a cult.

[alvodra]

I'm not feeling good.

The amount of people who defend JKR is horrifying. Who say transphobic things. Who say bullshit like "JKR speaking the truth is not transphobic". Who believe in her. Who admire her and copy her views.

I'm feeling sick.

[fandomsandfeminism]

Look, I try not to post too much about Rowling and HP in general, since I still feel an irrational level of betrayal surrounding the whole thing.

But all this drama about Hogwarts Legacy is *absurd* because it's not even like people are attached to this game because of ~☆~ nostalgia ~☆~

This isn't Harry Potter- it has none of the HP characters that may or may not remain a formative cornerstone of your childhood experiences. There's no wonder or whimsy. There's not even fucking quidditch.

It's a fucking Cop role play where you violently suppress a slave rebellion. Even if you were truly ignorant or apathetic about the obvious anti-semitic tropes, even if you had decided that pirating the game absolved you of contributing to the cultural capital of the IP - look at this fucking thing. It's tonally and thematically grimy and it has the aesthetics of a dingy antique store that has just a few too many rebel flag belt buckles and swastika pocket knives in the back room.

I'm never going to argue that you are obligated to only consume morally pure media- people can consume flawed and problematic stories all they want- but in this specific case, why would you fucking want to? It's a sepia toned supernatural Police brutality simulator.

[myimmortalfan666]

don't buy the antisemitic jkr game, let's make a my immortal game instead. it's nothing like harry potter anyway

[mlmxreader]

idk how the fuck people are surprised abt JK Rowling's latest anti-trans bullshit when we've known for YEARS that she happily sides w Nazis; all her public bullshit aside, did you lot suddenly forget the fact that she used antisemitic portrayals of Jews as part of her "fantasy" world where they were all working in banks w long hooked noses and long fingers and beady eyes and pointed ears? her being a Holocaust denier is NOT surprising, and nor is it anything NEW, either.

at this point, yall just need to stfu and listen to the people who are SAYING and have been saying for YEARS that any public and private support of Harry Potter IS allowing her to have this platform; she AND her terrible writing need to fate into the obsolete and have been needing to for YEARS.

[decrescxndo]

On apprend que JK Rowling offre 70 000 euros à l'association anti-trans "For Women Scotland" afin de l’aider a pousser la Cour Suprême à définir le mot "femme" selon le sexe biologique uniquement, donc encore une preuve tangible qu’elle finance des politiques transphobes, mais vous allez encore nous expliquer que vous vous « desolidarisez » d’elle et que vous « ne soutenez pas » cette femme.

Alors que vous faites tjrs la promotion de son univers en le maintenant en vie via vos forums et maintenant cette espece de hype décomplexée qui survit depuis qu’on sait que c’est une énorme connasse.

Ca me deg.

[pancakes4life]

I've seen a lot of arguments in the Percy Jackson vs Harry Potter debate, but there's one I haven't seen bought up at all. And that's that:

RICK RIORDAN CAN ACTUALLY COME UP WITH NAMES THAT MAKE SOME FUCKING SENSE AND THAT AREN'T RACIST

[notabled-noodle]

also it’s worth saying:

DO NOT buy JKR’s new book for a hate-read

DO NOT buy JKR’s new book for a ritual burning

DO NOT keep talking about it endlessly

we do not feed trolls, and we do not give undue attention to assholes

[thund3randrain]

An ex of mine who I think is enby or at least used to be said jkr wasn't transphobic, and I had to fully restrain myself from pulling out my screenshots to save the next three hours of my life

[samijami]

I think that people who hate Rick Riordan for JK Rowling disliking him or because he made his character black in the movie are inherently racist and/or transphobic.

He chose that girl to play his character because she fit the spirit of her perfectly, and she's amazing in the act. Plus, Disney has a anti-discriminaion policy, so he can't deny her the role just because she's black. It's against their policy. So what if she's black anyways, who the fuck cares? You just hate her because she's black.

And JK Rowling hates him because he said that 'trans women are women' so fuck off.

I don't know of any other drama with him, but he's the damn best author there is. And he has the best morals I've seen outta all of them. So seriously, stop.
