I prefer to stick to uncontroversial works made by politically conscious creators, like H.P. Lovecraft!
But no, I get it. I like art made by people who are or weren’t great. And that’s before considering my participation in the vast system of capitalism which necessarily involves systemic evils far beyond what JKR personally is capable of.
It just hurts to have a person who is loudly transphobic like JKR, who uses all support of her IP as support of her views, and then all the majority of society has to say is “I love HP tho”. It hurts especially when society is increasingly hostile towards trans people right now.
