i feel like the issue around separating the art from the artist is that people don’t get the difference between the opinion you hold in your head and the actions you take which affect others. you can have nostalgia for and even like the hp series but the moment you choose to support the franchise and give money to it you are actively choosing to support the artist, that does make you a hypocrite and/or a bigot just like her

I am not a transgender individual but I do believe you can hate a bigoted artist but love their creative work

understanding the harm that she’s done to the trans community is enough to never want to engage with her art

no actually the whole conversation is about how jkr funds anti-trans movements and giving her work relevance supports that. it really isn’t that hard to stop performing capitalism for shitty people. grow a spine and stand up for your community. hp shit is associated with anti-trans. it makes trans people feel less safe.

People can dislike JK Rowling but continue to enjoy harry potter…you’re trying too hard to virtue signal - that’s like telling people not to vote because Trump hates gays lol

*bc you’re selfish and don’t care about the impact your actions have on others, hope this helps 😄 it’s pretty clear you’re only looking to pick a fight so i won’t engage any further with you

false equivalence. it’s telling someone to not vote for trump because he hates gays. just like not endorsing her bc she hates trans ppl
