I do enjoy stories about magic. The problem is that Harry Potter is so tightly wound into her own politics as a story that you can’t separate the two. To add to that, buying Harry Potter related stuff directly funds anti-trans organization and she’s gone on record stating that.
I do wish she’d get off the batshit crazy hate bus. She’s just plain wrong, and I can agree to not supporting that, but having grown up with Harry Potter books being one of my favorite fictional escapes it hurts losing that piece of nostalgic delight that I used as an escape from an abusive childhood to a hate mongering transphobe.
Ok, you are making it abundantly clear that you are ok with JK dictating your purchasing permissions. Maybe that works for you, but I’d never give a jerk that kind of power over me.
I didn’t realize JK has talked about killing people. Can you point me to your source for that?
How does a pick-up line on a dating app give money to an organization?
We’ve got 10 downvotes and no replies. That’s called cowardice and hypocrisy. Don’t blame me for your feelings of inadequacy in regard to boycotts. Stand up for your decision or don’t shame others for being different.

My purchasing decision is to boycott anything that funds people who want to kill me and I’m perfectly okay with adding more people to the list.
