“Moderately related” as in “written by and with royalties paid to”
People, and trans people especially, absolutely have good reason to not want to buy a product that directly funds a person who is actively hostile to their existence.
You can’t deal with critical comments from a community who are directly affected by the actions of a major stakeholder? That’s pathetic.
shes wrong about the second part if she said that, it just means you dont care enough about their position (/ them) to stop you or you believe in art ≠ artist. about the first part, it’s too vague for me to take a stance on. if shes called for their deaths thats horrific. if she said that trans minors should get a 40 minute psych checkup before irreversible surgery, i couldnt care less.
I suggest you do your own research then. From everything I’ve read, JKR is a horrible person and virulently anti-trans. There are a lot of ways to br horrific without outright calling for people’s deaths.
i dont put that much weight on some random authors societal takes to research them. if shes calling to take away trans peoples votes or for them to be removed from the work force or something insane thats wrong. if shes just saying ‘idc about peoples preferred pronouns’ i couldnt gaf, shes one person of billions, so what honestly.
She’s one person influencing millions, if not billions, that’s for sure. She’s not some random author, she is one of the most well known personalities of the 20th and 21st century. Her opinions carry weight, as misguided as that may be on the part of her followers.
I’d partially agree with you if we were talking about some random who has sold a few hundred kindle copies of their book on Amazon and is spewing nonsense. And even then I’d call for people to not support that author in any way shape or form. JKR is however hugely influential, and that absolutely should matter when it comes to deciding who you give your money to.
Oh no somebody doesn’t like trans people, let’s shit in comments about a moderately related game for like forever /s
You want acceptance, but you can’t accept the fact that somebody disagrees with you. That’s pathetic.

what has she even said exactly about trans people, ‘actively hostile to their existence’ sounds like shes called for genocide???
She actively campaigns against trans rights and has said that if you buy her stuff, you support her position.
