⚠️ TRANSPHOBIA FEDI ADMIN PSA ⚠️

as a heads up to users and fellow admins, tomorrow a trailer for the new harry potter tv series comes out. as a hostile reminder, we here at the cybersyndicate (or the staff of any other halfway decent instance) will ban anyone remote or local discussing said series in a non-disparaging light

fuck jk rowling. fuck harry potter. fuck anyone who gives this franchise more space in our cultural consciousness and thereby directly contributes to the hostile environment trans people face on a daily basis. just grow up. and read another fucking book

@vantablack

anyone who still likes HP in the grand 2026 is an illiterate (in its literal sense of meaning), bigot and the right hand of hitler if i gotta say dat

with so many amazing works in the genre when you still choose a "piece of art" that in itself is bigoted and claim "separate art from artist" you look ridiculous. claiming to be pro-trans and supporting the Wizard Mein Kampf That Funds Trans Genocide is a really badly written joke

(general you, not you as in vanta)

@vantablack

In no uncertain terms, I hope JKR goes and eats a crowbar. She's a megafascist and a dogshit writer.

@dogiedog64 @vantablack I never liked HP even when I was younger - on top of transphobia the whole "boarding school fantasy" and glorification of these abusive places as well as the British class structure is fucked up (and I could never understand why it was so popular here even in the 90s/00s)

@vantablack If you hear me shouting "oh, for fuck's sake!" between the hours of 7 and 8 pm, it's because Jeopardy still can't go two weeks without a damned Harry Potter question.

Sod TERFs.

@vantablack thank you SOOOO much for the heads up omg I really needed it.
@vantablack Can I recommend the worst witch as an alternative people who think they would like Harry Potter might like, it's very similar in many ways, and better in many other ways.
@vantablack
I was never interested in those books anyway and haven't read them either, so no skin off my back.
