She continues to fall down the Nazi rabbit hole.
Why doesn’t she just take her Harry potter money and remove herself from society on some private island or something? How damaged do you need to be to want to start fights with an already marginalised section of society? What a rubbish human being!
Because when you have everything the money can buy, you become greedy for attention.
Here’s a Neil Gaiman thing to balance things out
I was going to say that’s actually a G K Chesterton quote, but it turns out it’s more complicated than that. Neil Gaiman himself said it was from Chesterton (when quoting it at the start of Coraline), but he wrote it from memory and didn’t double check, so the original is worded differently. At least, that’s how my quick googling claims the paraphrase happened. The misquote is pithier than the original so… is it now a Gaiman quote, even though it originates as an attempted Chesterton quote?
As far as I can tell, the passage he was thinking of was:
Fairy tales do not give the child his first idea of bogey. What fairy tales give the child is his first clear idea of the possible defeat of bogey. The baby has known the dragon intimately ever since he had an imagination. What the fairy tale provides for him is a St. George to kill the dragon.
- G K Chesterton, Tremendous Trifles (1909)
Interestingly, on Gaiman and attribution, he came out with a graphic novel, The Books of Magic, with a main character very similar to Harry Potter. This was 7 years prior to Rowlings publishing the first book. His response to that similarity was equally charitable, chalking it to creators tapping into the same unconscious material. Dude seems to have integrity. I could see another person grousing at the parallels between the two.
Neil Gaiman was close friends with the legendary Terry Pratchett. There’s no doubt he’s a better human being than Joanne.
Wait, if Terry Pratchett is just a legend, who wrote all those Discworld novels??
They probably just manifested in the library one day. That, or they are taken from L-space.
You can have black ancestry and appear not-black, so this really doesn’t support her argument at all.
In such a case, is such a person black?
If you’ve read Harry Potter at any age older than 12 you’re not a serious person. Whenever I meet an adult who says they’re into Harry P. I’ll secretly judge them and avoid them. The same applies to adult MCU aficionados. So please stop giving her waaay more attention than her silly scribblings for half-wits make her deserve
Bro. What problem do you have with one of the most selling books worldwide?
Just for you to know, I dont want an answer and Id like you to know I still read Harry Potter and Im 25.
I’m just trying to figure out wtf her endgame is here? Like, there’s zero upside for her on this. I genuinely don’t get it.
I, for one, would find it absolutely hilarious to see JK Rowling try and use the N-word to Own The Libs.
