When I see an adult today who still puts money into the Harry Potter universe, I think so much less of them. This goes double for actors and directors who agree to work with Moldemort.

@kazarnowicz@unstraight.club Same I'm basically like, "Harry Potter? In this economy?" I don't feel great about HP materials in general and avoid them on the rare occasions they come up, but I give a bit more respect to people who consume HP responsibly, as a friend put it, by pirating it. And I gained a healthy amount of admiration for Daniel Radcliffe when he explicitly pushed back at Terfy Billionaire's hate and compared her to Voldemort xD @clarablackink@writing.exchange

@ljwrites@writeout.ink @kazarnowicz@unstraight.club I think the main ethical consumption off the high seas is fan created stuff but even then...

That there have been multiple cults spawned from the source material underscores a certain quality from the original that remains troubling.

I think for me its just....you need to read more than one author, more than one series. Broaden interests and adventure beyond comfortable faves.
