i do also think it's...weird that outside the HP fandom a lot of the conversation on here about this devastating UK supreme court ruling is like 'this is about the HP fandom being immoral for interacting with the work of someone who funded the groups that had the court case. queer hp fans who criticize jkr don't know what's good for them' instead of like. criticizing jkr the person, the entire matrix of transphobia of which she is a part, and the goddamn UK supreme court. but no it's getting mad at other queer people on Tumblr! super productive activism.
#fandom commentary#hp fandom commentary#anti jkr#I don't normally do a lot of political commentary on this blog so it feels a little hypocritical to be posting this#when jkr does something evil though I feel an ethical obligation to call it out here#and i've been seeing this response all over#which I do not think is a helpful one.#the HP fandom deserves critique for its treatment of trans issues but writing us all off from a high horse while ignoring the real problems#that created jkr#is not helpful
