sure, I get it, Rowling is transophobic. She hates trans. And I agree that is quite bad.
But Chick-fil-A hates lgbtq and people arent getting cancelled for buying a chicken burger.
musk is a racist Russian asset and conspiracy theorist who spent billions of dollars to turn Twitter into a haven for hate speech, fired hundreds of people just for kicks and he longs for the apartheid. Yet people are still using Twitter and people are not getting cancelled for driving a Tesla.
how many game development companies have been exposed for their extremely racist, sexist and inappropriate bro culture and crunch time as a way of doing business, and no one even it remembers it anymore?
I am a bit curious about why Rowling /HP/hogwarts hit different
Because the internet sucks. People had valid reasons to raise awareness that JK Rowling is a POS. Then the usual crowd go ballistic over this. People turn this into another way to just harass people they don't like.
