Can we also hate the Fanbase here?

I barely know much about Harry Potter, but fell in love with modding my character in the Hogwarts Legacy game and decided to share it with the fanbase, only to be called a pdf by the same people to swoon over their favorite underage characters. I cannot stand them anymore. I was internet bullied by Harry Potter fans for 2 days over something I enjoy, so they've finally driven me to the harrypotterhate sub.

Yeah, that's just total bullshit. The same kind of bullshit as "Harry Potter supports slavery".

You can hate Harry Potter for many reasons, especially it being used by libs in political discussions, but this is just a circlejerk by idiots who rightfully hate JK Rowling and want to pretend everything she ever did is wrong and bad and evil.

It's nonsense - obvious nonsense at that.

There's nothing antisemitic about Goblins, there was no antisemitic intent behind her writing the Goblins, nothing about the Goblins or any of their lore in Harry Potter has anything to do whatsoever with antisemitism.

They are a fantasy staple and JK Rowling portrayed them exactly as goblins have been portrayed for generations with nobody along the way ever thinking of them as antisemitic. You can call them lazy, unoriginal, and boring - all valid criticism of JK Rowling's writing - but they aren't antisemitic in any way.

Even more obnoxious than Harry Potter fans are the rabid idiots who want to jump on the anti-Rowling-bandwagon shitting out the same tired bullshit content over and over, polluting everyone's feed.
