@mhoye Harry Potter and the reality that indeed I was that age when it came out and it was a large part of my childhood and I am still working to excise references to it from my vernacular but I am determined to do so and to not support the piece of shit who wrote the books with one single more cent

Harry Potter And Whether You Like It Or Not That Whole Story Is About A Trust Fund Baby Turned Sports Jock Who Went To A Posh Boarding School For That Particular Kind Of Sports Jock Where The Smartest Girl In That Posh Boarding School Carried His Ass In Every Class Every Year And Then He Married His Narrative Afterthought High School Sweetheart And Eventually Graduated And Became A Cop But If You’re Still Buying The Merch 20 Years Later Then You’re Not Ready For This Conversation.

@mhoye Also loudly proclaiming your boycott and congratulating directors feels a lot more like self-aggrandizing behavior than like they actually give a shit. There's a LOT of white knight-ism going around.

@mhoye not to mention, in all honesty, even if the books and author weren’t horribly problematic, they’re just *not very good*. if you’ve only read harry potter, go pick up another fantasy series. you will be BLOWN AWAY

@GroupNebula563 inoculating your kids with C. J. Cherryh or Jo Walton seems like a healthy preventative measure.

@mhoye I was around 12 when it came out and had immediately decided it was too childish for my taste. Then out of principle, I neither read nor watched nor played anything from that franchise.
I obviously didn't have the sociological literacy required for an analysis back then but since JKR came out as bigot I feel strangely vindicated.

@mhoye
The full 11 volume Sandman collection is getting cut this round (I didn’t know he was a rapist last round).

@GroupNebula563 @mhoye I mean the Sorting Hat was sort of a clue to the odious opinions she would later espouse: "You are who we say you are and your role is ordained."
Directly contrary to that, Terry Pratchett wrote in A Hat Full of Sky: "The only hat worth wearing was the one you made for yourself, not one you bought, not one you were given."

Innoculating then against fascism and other forms of stupidity might be more beneficial

It's a cult.

That fits with British/American differences I have seen, although the difference between Dock Green and The Sweeney might be enough.
