The reason is simple: she’s a bigot. She has been successful at pushing her transphobic agenda into UK law, and she will continue to move across the spectrum because hate only knows how to hate even when they succeed.
This is exactly the reason I’m shifting from just warning people that buying her shit is immoral so outright calling them bigots for supporting bigotry. If they don’t want to be bigots they can stop giving her their goddamn money.
I support and share most of your opinions. She is a huge bigot and should be accountable for her actions. My only point is that we have kids and teenagers still consuming her books and products that are completely unaware of what is happening and shouldn’t be called out because of that.
While I don’t disagree I think it’s important to keep in mind that kids and teenagers aren’t stupid - they are capable of understanding that you shouldn’t allow a bad person to continue to be a bad person if you have a conversation about why what JKR is doing is bad. Most of the vocal pushback that I’ve experienced offline has actually come from teenagers.
The problem lies squarely with millennial parents who continue to buy books/movies/games/merch for themselves or their young children because of nostalgia. They are old enough to know better, and should be held responsible for their actions.
