    Never meet your heroes. Joss Whedon, JK Rowling, Orson Scott Card… all the horrible people making super influencial content that so essentially stands in opposition to their horrid real life behavior. I just don’t get it either…

      This is a long watch, but this video explains how Harry Potter is essentially a story about the virtues of bland centrism, and shows that the breadcrumb trail to Rowling’s bigotry was there all along. The scales fell from my eyes while listening to this.
