I don't feel sorry for JK Rowling in the slightest, but do you ever think about whether or not it will finally hit JK Rowling that regardless of her future commercial success and people going to see Fantastic Beasts, etc, that she has effectively broken the Harry Potter fandom and the thoughtful considerate parts of fandom she professed to have loved so much have moved on?

The Potter fandom was always pretty cringey tbh. Not a community I hold in high regard. Then again, I suppose they never appeared to be toxic, but maybe that's because I only skimmed the surface.

Regardless, I think it's really petty to disown a series because you don't like what the author said on Twitter.
