It’s incredibly telling to me that you use “woke” as an insult.

Given the cross-post to political memes, I’m guessing it’s a reference to the current mad king of America. It would have been more relevant if Trump got stabbed, but hey.

First of all, it’s the behaviour of a same-sex crush.

Second of all, I’m not sure this is the best point to argue. I’m straight, so take what I say with as much salt as you like, but I checked what gay people are saying and the “reclaimed” usage is pretty controversial. Some say it’s minimising the harm gay people have suffered in living history. Others say it’s fetishising gay romance by focusing on cutesy crushes. Also, most states still have the gay panic defence in law, so it’s not just a past evil.

I mean, let’s be honest, it might as well.

When Harry Potter was first made, it was wish fulfilment written by a closeted bigot that we all assumed was harmless. Sure, but who cares? We’re not talking about things people were doing when it was first made. We’re talking about things people are doing TODAY, when we know what the franchise has done and continues to do through the support of its fans.

Knowing what we currently know, actively engaging with the series is the same as deadnaming someone: It proves they don’t support the trans community. It doesn’t matter if they keep it quiet. If anything, that makes it worse. It shows you know it’s evil, but you don’t care, so long as nobody tells you off for it. Just like a confederate flag, why do you even want it?

And why would you want to be friends with someone who won’t support you?

(Side note: A gun does less measurable harm to me than a flamethrower, but I still don’t want someone to shoot me. It’s a false dichotomy.)

Just like Harry Potter, I’m done with this conversation and won’t engage with it anymore. Goodbye.

No I did not.

I don’t give a shit when you formed an attachment to the confederacy, I care why it’s currently so important to you to have a confederate flag in your home. Even if you keep it in the basement, you still have it. Worse, you went out of your way to get a new one, fully knowing it’s evil.

There are people who liked the confederacy before you, and more than you, who have grown past it and given it up to protect others. Why won’t you?

You don’t wanna read Trans Wizard Harriet Porber And The Bad Boy Parasaurolophus: An Adult Romance Novel by Hugo award finalist Chuck Tingle?

I remember seeing someone post recently that pirating Harry Potter is like stealing a confederate flag. It’s good you didn’t give them money, but you’re still showing your allegiance by having it at all.

Is this the evil and intimidating horse I’ve heard so much about?

I feel like, if you think about what the book does, the gap isn’t as big as you’d think.

“Hermione, don’t let being muggleborn get you down. You’re a powerful witch, and therefore have value. …Let’s just ignore how we treat Filch and act like his bitter attitude is his own fault, alright?”

“It is choices that matter, not circumstances. Like how the sorting hat chose for these people to be Slytherins, so they’re all evil and probably ugly.”

“Look at how heroic Harry is for freeing a slave. Now, we’re going to give him a slave and not think too hard about that. In fact, Hermione wanting to free other slaves is annoying and we should laugh at her because of it.”

That’s when you trick them into drinking water by baiting them with hot lesbian domination.

Try becoming a warlock. Do one thing, take a short rest, then do another thing.

Just got word, the coal industry does not want a new, more efficient fuel source to appear, so they’re ending gay porn.

I mean, why not? The tree’s empty now.

Well, if they didn’t notice it, then that’s their loss.

I’m also in the UK, and imgur blocks my VPN, so I get the worst of both worlds.

There’s a version of it on patreon, but nothing public that I could find. And it looks like it’s only 4 and a half hours long, which… It’s not progress, but…
