A list of reasons I’m divorcing J.K. Rowling and no longer acknowledging anything Past Deathly Hallows
None of it makes sense or really adds anything to the story except ‘ooh! A twist!’
She took the The Boy Who Lived To Idolize His Parents, and made him into a terrible father, who told his son he wishes he wasn’t born.
Made lycanthropy an allegory for HIV/AIDS, AFTER Lupin was turned as a child, by an adult. Not only does this tick the box for pedophilia, but painting homosexuals as predatory by nature.
Delphi. Everything about her. Including that she exists.
During the actual series, wandless magic was incredibly difficult to do, and only harnessed by very dedicated, powerful witches and wizards. Then, when writing about it in reference to Native American witches and wizards, suddenly, they needed Europeans to come along and teach them how to use wands.
Dumbledore being gay, whilst having none of his romantic relationships touched on in the series, even when his adolescence is delved into.
Taking from other cultures (Indian and Native American, for example) to add things to the series, with no credit due to those cultures, and no mention of even a character from those cultures.
Nagini somehow being a human originally, when it was previously never even alluded to, despite J.K. apparently ‘sitting on this for the last 20 years’.
Nagini, the literal PET of a white supremacist, was a woman of color.
Outside of the series, JK Rowling is a known TERF.
None of these things she attempts to shoehorn in feel even remotely natural to the story, and it’s painfully fucking obvious they’re last-minute ‘gotcha!’ twists ripped off ff.net or ao3. She’s destroying the series by trying to keep it relevant, when it could maintain relevancy all on it’s own by being passed down through families and the fandom all on it’s own.
i can’t believe the new official Harry Potter canon is “Voldemort’s pet snake Nagini was secretly an Asian woman all along.“
They’re different conditions. Maledictuses are always women, whereas werewolves can be either sex. The Maledictus carries a blood curse from birth, which is passed down from mother to daughter. https://t.co/wYfvPeQFRW
here’s a good explaination of he/him lesbians!! so stop with the lesbophobia and let he/him + they/them lesbians live!
I guess pronouns and english language are just whatever the fuck you want it to be, huh?
given “google” is now a verb and “yeet” is a word, yeah i would say the english language is whatever the fuck people want it to be. pronouns dont inherently have a gender and lesbians have been doing it for years so maybe go yell about other words you dont like instead of focusing specifically on the language lesbians use because you hate us
what if we dont want he/him lesbians to be a thing under the english language?
Tough shit we already are. Pronouns are not inherently gendered. Cry about it
but if the english language is whatever people want it to be, then pronouns can be inherently gendered if people want them to?
The English language changes based on the majority. Which these people aren’t. So honestly it’s not worth validating by conversing about it. It’s a non issue.
“only the majority matters” alright then. lets throw out the words “lesbian” and “gay” and “trans” altogether, because these people and their experiences are not the majority, no need having words that describe them at all. lets also throw out “autistic” because again, not the norm. “disabled” too, because they make up around 10% of the population globally. all of these people are not the majority, so their problems and lived experiences are non-issues.
see how fucking stupid you sound? just because someone isnt the majority does not mean they dont deserve a part in the language. our language is our ability to communicate our experiences and identities. its how we interact with other people. if we don’t even have the power to talk to one another, what do we even have at all?
