#its separating fiction from their creators
fullyfunctionalminiaturebeehive:
it’s really disappointing how people’s critique of jkr starts and ends with her transphobia, and they completely ignore her blatant antisemitism, racism, homophobia, slavery apologism, sympathy for the wizard nazis, (the wizard nazi incel) snape’s redemption, the villain of fantastic beasts trying to stop the holocaust, and the new game literally being a rehash of the blood libel myth.
&her ableism, fatphobia, classism, and general naked imperialism(look at things like the “thunderbird” in fantastic beasts, or anything and everything she’s ever said or done about Scotland, for example)
This ass-hat has actually lobbied against things like “letting disabled people survive” and “the colonised nation I live in taking steps toward independence.”
Oh, and you already mentioned it, but - antisemitism, again. Cannot stress the antisemitism enough because, holy fuck she’s so antisemitic!
as a trans person this is is so important to look at and spread bc us trans people are not the only people affected, and we need to band together to spread awareness about the full extent of JKRs bigotry.
JKR is the example of why death of the author needs to be a thing sometimes.
Butch Hartman is another.
