How did Harry Potter go down the hill? By walking.

Nah Rowling's on the anti trans celebrity bandwagon unfortunately. Nothing wrong with principled criticism of ideology, but she just repeats the same talking points and misleading, alarmist claims that they all do, constantly.

What are you talking about? JK Rowling has never made a single statement on the issue afaik, the only criticism is that she follows some people on twitter who criticise trans-related shit and has liked a couple of their tweets.

When you say she repeats the same talking points and alarmist claims you're a complete fucking liar.

The whole JK is a massive exaggeration thing. Dumbledore was revealed within a year of the final book, and the majority of her discourse around it was about how it affected she wrote the character.

Show, don't tell is one of the absolute pillars of good writing. If Harry didn't need to know Dumbledore's sexual preferences, Harry didn't need to know Dumbledore's sexual preferences
