“Local Moron Who Denies Nazi War Crimes and Associates with Nazi Apologists Upset that People Call Her a Nazi Apologist.”
Remember who JKRowlings friends (aka homophobes, transphobes, and fascists) are:

This is who you're supporting by continuing to support the Harry potter / Fantastic Beasts franchises, by the way ♡
From the article:
The exchange promoting a denial that transgender people were targeted in the Holocaust was triggered by a tweet questioning why individuals like Rowling increasingly find themselves aligned with Nazis, who burned books on transgender healthcare and research in 1933. Rather than defending her position, Rowling seemed to dismiss the notion altogether that transgender individuals were targeted, asking, "How did you type this out and press send without thinking ‘I should maybe check my source for this, because it might’ve been a fever dream’?" When others provided her with sources, she responded by linking to an anti-trans account calling the first transgender woman to undergo gender reassignment surgery in Germany to a "troubled male.” The thread in question also denied that transgender people were targeted by the Holocaust.

And yes. You supporting those franchises is supporting her. Not only has she said it herself, but any time you buy merchandise or engage with new media, even without her direct involvement, you are paying. Your money is going to her, and she is using that money to influence UK laws / the anti-trans scene.
If you STILL advocate for HP/FB and follow me, fucking leave. I hate your guts and will never consider you an ally.

People said not supporting Hogwarts Legacy wouldn't do anything.

Granted, I didn't actually read the article, but it looks like she's trying to backpedal on at least some of her bullshit.
I'm not saying we fixed transphobia or anything, but after all this time of her doubling down, this shows that the controversy DID have some sort of effect.

i really feel like we don’t discuss enough just how deep jkr’s white supremacy goes
like it’s way more than just:
cho chang’s name
almost every black character being tall and sporty
kingley’s name
the goblins
the house elves
the only south asian thing about the patil twins being their names
there’s way more but those are the talking points that are usually discussed in the white supremacy context of jkr’s bigotry.
but there’s something else that i find to be particularly insidious which i don’t see that many conversations about.
so for context when i did my a level i had had to research late 19th century pseudoscience because i was studying gothic literature. and i came across things like phrenology and the criminal mind and honestly it feels like jkr discovered these theories and just ran with them.
as a quick explanation phrenology is the theory that by studying the shape of someone’s skull you can see if they’re predisposed to criminality and lombroso’s criminal mind is the theory that criminality is hereditary and you can tell by observing someone’s physical features. it’s also the general consensus in both these theories that someone with physical ‘defects’ or deformities’ will be predisposed to criminality which also makes them incredibly ableist.
both are incredibly eugenicist and white supremacist theories because they’re essentially saying that you can tell if someone is inherently good or bad and thereby whether they deserve to be alive/within society/treated as equals by looking at their physical features.
they are both complete bullshit pseudoscience with no real basis in fact.
now where this comes into hp and jkr is that the antagonists and the villains of the series are disproportionately described as having these very negative physical characteristics.
like the very obvious one is voldemort with no nose and being snakelike.
but also the way peter pettigrew is described.
“His thin, colourless hair was unkempt and there was a large bald patch on top. He had the shrunken appearance of a plump man who had lost a lot of weight in a short time. His skin looked grubby, almost like Scabbers’s fur, and something of the rat lingered around his pointed nose, his very small, watery eyes.” (poa ch 19)
like the man is literally being compared to an animal (yes i know it’s implied in the lore that the longer one stays in their animagus form the more traits they take on but the point still stands).
then there’s marcus flint who as far as i remember is literally just a minor antagonist.
“Marcus Flint was even larger than Wood. He had a look of trollish cunning on his face as he replied” (cos ch 7)
like she really has a thing for comparing people to animals which is a very common tool in white supremacy for dehumanising people.
and then there’s greyback
“a big, rangy man with matted grey hair and whiskers, whose black Death Eater’s robes looked uncomfortably tight. He had a voice like none that Harry had ever heard: a rasping bark of a voice. Harry could smell a powerful mixture of dirt, sweat and, unmistakeably, of blood coming from him. His filthy hands had long yellowish nails.” (hbp ch 27)
now admittedly it’s slightly different with greyback since jkr is very openly saying in the narrative that he’s less than human and too dangerous for society because jkr only believes in equality for muggleborns and no one else.
but as is stands there are so many examples some big some small of the physical descriptions of villains and antagonists having negative connotations. the reason that it’s so insidious is because this is a children’s book series. and children soak up information like sponges including the implication that the further you are from the beauty standards the worse of a person you are (something that is reinforced by society). then when you place that in the context of the west where hp is most popular then it becomes the further away you are from whiteness (the western beauty standard) the worse of a person you are.
it seems like a really small thing which is why i don’t think it gets discussed nearly as much as the more overt things but even the small pebbles can have large ripple effects. besides i think think it’s incredibly important to discuss every aspect of jkr’s bigotry.

If JKR added an asexual character to Harry Potter, their name would be Virginia Nossex

I really hate shit talking other authors and try to avoid it all costs because I don't want to hate on other people in my field, but jkr is the one exception. I deeply hate her, and I hope her supporters wake up to how beyond disgusting she is and stop following her.

I pray for JKR to stop using her money and power to make life harder for people and violate human rights.

So, Joanne Kathleen Rowling, there's something I noticed in your wonderful flawless books that I haven't seen anyone talk about about.
First off, you are an excellent romance writer. Harry and Ginny? Mm, they didn't talk for the majority of the series and Ginny didn't have a personality until book 6, but they had children so they're a perfect couple. Hermione and Ron? Beautiful relationship! They spent at least 80% of the time fighting, making the other jealous, or making Hermione cry.
However, I've noticed that you put every character into a relationship, even if they had no interest in one before. Even outside the series, everyone got married and had kids.
I mean, the only single characters are either evil (Voldemort, Bellatrix, all of the death eaters) or mourning over a lover because they're forever broken (Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape).
This must have been an accident and not some . . . amatonormative propaganda, correct?
Well, I mean, isn't amatonormativity correct? Unless you're a lonely loser undeserving of such affection, like Voldemort, of course.
It's human nature to breed children! That's what we're put on Earth to do, is repopulate! It's not propaganda, particularly, it's just biblical facts!
So no, it's not amatonormative propaganda! It's straight up facts! Unless you're some alien or AI, in that case, why are you on Earth? Are you Voldemort?

Never Too Late
Part of the message of AVPM, particularly expressed through the character of Voldy, is that it's never too late to change, or to do better, regardless of what everyone else around you (both those cheering your less-than-great behavior on and those wishing for your demise) may say.
Maybe it's the good-girl-eldest-daughter guilt complex, maybe it's the mental illness and frustration of constant roadblocks and endless struggle just to keep my life from falling completely apart, but the idea that it's never too late for a new leaf, never too late to re-discover or even just plain-old discover your joy, is really important to me.
I've collected a lot of the Starkid enamel pins. My favorite is the Voldemort one, which I keep pinned to the pocket of my favorite denim jacket (don't worry, I polled my irl friends and none of them recognized him as a Harry Potter character so I'm not out there repping JKR's brand). My very embarrassing fandom admission is that I sometimes reach down and hold onto him in times of great stress and anxiety. It makes me feel better. It makes me feel braver. It makes me feel hope.
And the fact that a parody musical version of one of villains I've always hated the most and considered the most vile and evil could do that is... wild.
But very impressive.
Happy fourteen, edited version of AVPM. Thanks for all the magic.
