I can’t believe it…

I cannot believe what I’m about to say. I got into an “argument” with people yesterday about Rowling, lol

I came to a conclusion afterwards. I would actually trust Trump more, than Rowling or any of her cult.

Hear me out, lol

The whole Jan 6th thing, and the whole transphobe thing is really eye opening. When I hear about things from Jan 6th, it’s not surprising. When I hear about anti-trans things, it keeps shocking me, because it KEEPS getting worse. And it’s not just that it keeps getting worse, it’s that grown adults, who apparently don’t like Trump, don’t care, just like Trump. They keep making excuses for Rowling.

But the difference is, unlike Rowling. You know that’s what Trump’s like. You know, there’s no surprises. Like you can’t sit there and say that you didn’t see what Trump’s done, totally coming.

Yet, Rowling had said SO much crap, and that’s all it’s been, is crap. Like when you look back, she always shady. Yet, people put it down too, oh I/she didn’t mean it like that” And she would ALWAYS say “that’s not how I meant it”. She clearly did. How does ONE person get it wrong so many bloody times, and they don’t mean it “that way”.

Because I never really got into Harry Potter, I never really paid attention. It was actually a fellow reader, who made me pay attention. They give out great reviews and they call authors as they see it. Which is nice. She was the first person who talked about Rowling’s problematic history. It was more to do with her anti-Semitism, which is really iffy.

In “Harry Potter and the Philospher’s Stone” (2001) The Floor of the Wizarding Bank Gringotts is decorated with the Star of David, this is a reference to the fact that it’s run by a race of anti-Semitic caricatures.

The “woman” whose Tweet “accidentally” Rowling liked, I kid you not, that’s what she said. Wasn’t just horrifically transphobic, but she was also horrifically anti-Semitic. She routinely accused George Soros of funding the trans lobby. Like, again, this stuff keeps happening over and over.

You just KNOW if Trump did a SINGLE ONE of those things, that they would be all over him. You just KNOW it, because it IS wrong.

  1. I knew about the anti-trans stuff Rowling has said, but I wasn’t aware of the anti-Semitic stuff with the Harry Potter series. Granted, I didn’t read the books and only saw bits and pieces of the movies, but I wasn’t aware of that. It’s so annoying when fandoms make so many excuses for bad choices of what they’re a fan of and/or play the “separate art from the artist” excuse as a get-out-of-jail-free card when a creator does or says something very offensive at best, or criminal at worst. Don’t get me wrong, Trump and the J6ers did something horrible, but I hear what you’re saying because anyone would expect it from those types.

      1. I’ve heard that phrase with that same wording before in an anime of all things when I first heard it. It’s also similar to “preaching to the choir” which I heard first, but I do get your point.
