J.K. Rowling uses Harry Potter wealth to fund anti-transgender organization
This is where "Harry Potter" profits are going.

Rowling responded to the decision by posting a picture of her having a drink and smoking a cigar, with the text “I love it when a plan comes together.”
Holy shit, she's pure evil.
Voldemort was her retirement plan after all.
Dolores Umbridge was a self-insert.
I can't wait to see the research covering this level of social decline amongst her generational peers.
This is abnormal behavior
Boycott this evil cunt! Don’t watch the movies, don’t watch the new tv series, don’t buy or read the books. I know these books influenced and inspired many people but we all need to let them go. If even one penny helps this bitch it’s too much.
There's also piracy, for those who enjoy the material but don't want to support the evil shitstain of an author.
While I do agree that we shouldn't support her, boycotting really won't do anything in this case. She's a billionaire. If she stopped getting any money right this moment, she'd still have plenty left to keep hurting people for the rest of her life, and then some. We need better laws to protect the vulnerable. That's basically the only way aside from taking away her and other billionaires' wealth and redistributing it
Wow she's speeedrunning her villain arc huh
Pretty sure we're just seeing what was always there under the surface, but hidden.
It wasn't though, there's lots of ableism, racism, fatphobia, gender binary and weirdness about genitals in her books. Transphobia isn't surprising given all that.
PoS
So why invent poly juice potion?
Because she has direct quotes about how she wished she was born a boy ;)
Who the fook did this broad hit on that was trans and turned her down??? Where does she get this level of hatred from??? Like damn...
Bet she has a secret folder on her personal computer though iykwim
It's a cult. She's a fascist and both biological and gender essentialism is useful to fascism, capitalism, tyranny and authoritarianism as it allows people to be more easily controlled. Whereas if we actually saw both sex and gender as what they are: spectrums, social constructs and ever changing along both life and through our understandings then we'd be a lot more free and those people would have less power even if, ironically, in the end they'd end up with less in the current or a fully fascist system too. They hate having less power in certain ways so they have to keep it around. That's all.
She has also discussed her issues with her gender growing up and she just "got over it". Same thing with a lack of desire for sex/romance. She goes after trans people, and recently started talking shit on aroace people. So, she might not have "gotten over it". Possibly this is some sort of internalize hatred, she also expresses casual misogyny on occasion as well.
