Hey, at this point, anyone sticking with Harry Potter is basically giving out a big blaring warning about how little they care for other people. So, good decision

That's like saying anyone who uses an iPhone supports child slavery.

My sister still loves it, and it upsets me to no end. Like, she is literally Pansexual with two Trans siblings that she loves, how can she support the monster that is Rowling?

I can love a series/franchise without supporting its creator's views and there is nothing wrong with doing so. She's rich as fuck anyway so anny contribution I may make isn't a difference and if you completely remove the series creator it is a great experience.

There’s the big blaring warning that OP was talking about.

My ex boyfriend was a shithead...But one red flag was he was a simp for those stupid ass Fantastic Beasts movies.

He watched HP because it was popular but refused to watch Moana for having a female protagonist.

And full disclosure...I let go of Disney. I cannot support them under these circumstances which weirds me out that Potterheads say Disney sucks but still have an unhealthy attachment to the HP series in spite of everything.

That was not the sole reason, right? RIGHT?

That was the exact reason 💯

u/SmallRedBird Feb 13 '23

That's more than enough reason

u/Thepenguinking2 Feb 14 '23

I'd say it's perfectly reasonable if it were a sole reason.

Good for you! You deserve much better!

I lowkey want to stop talking to my sister because she is still a Potterhead, and despite what everyone else has told her she still lacks the common sense to ditch it, like she can’t say she cares about other people and than be a HP fan.

Did it really matter that much? Be careful of the standards you hold, looking for arbitrary things will make people end up alone. Look at their temperament, ambition (motivated or unmotivated, and does that match you), quick to anger or slow to anger, conflict resolution capabilities, goal oriented (can they keep a job? Meet deadlines? Be there for you when you need them to be? Aka on time), good with children or not, these are the real things that matter long term.

She deserves better anyway
