There's a lego fan site that does that too. Review Harry Potter lego then encourage donations to Mermaids etc

Immature, and bullies: quite a double header

Fuck you Buzzfeed

I’m cringing.

Reddit's Harry Potter sub has a rule to avoid siding with Rowling's words and actions.

Which particular words and actions? Can you link to specific examples? Many thanks!

Freeasabird76 · 25/11/2022 17:35

It's prolific,i went to a female positive focus group at my local nhs mental health unit and the leader showed a quote she liked but because it was by JKR she was like'oh we'll have to change that as shes been a naughty lady and it may cause offence'.I was taking offence at that comment ( i do assume she said it as one of the attendees was trans.)

NoSquirrels · 25/11/2022 17:37

Ugh indeed.

If you have Reddit I'm sure the HP sub mods will be happy to explain.

Pinniepotter · 25/11/2022 17:46

Buzz feed can fuck right off.

We will remember who was on the wrong side of history.

TRAs dictating what people are allowed to think or say?! I'm shocked, shocked I tell you!

igivein · 25/11/2022 17:49

If they really had the courage of their convictions, they wouldn’t be advertising / profiting from anything JKR related - complete hypocrites!

Why can’t you?

Just so you know, BuzzFeed may collect a share of sales or other compensation from the links on this page if you decide to shop from them.

Happy to advertise and potentially profit from her merch though...

Wow! They have strong opinions on Scottish devolution over at Reddit.

I don't have Reddit I'm afraid. Would you mind sharing some links which show what she said and did? Or maybe there isn't any evidence?

Datun · 25/11/2022 17:59

My fucking God, how hypocritical can you get. Stop profiting from her stuff then !!!

BeBraveLittlePenguin · 25/11/2022 18:19

They put that same wording on every one of their (many) articles about HP. It's useful for when you want to virtue signal but without actually giving up something you love/make money from. The Radcliffe coefficient, if you will.

littlbrowndog · 25/11/2022 18:21

Yeah it’s about them showing what good inclusive signallers they are

they don’t give a shiny shite really.

jo will be getting money off it. That will piss them off

Riapia · 25/11/2022 18:51

What enrages the grubby fuckers is that she can’t be silenced. Every time that they try they only make themselves appear even more ridiculous.

So do they just slag off all the Harry Potter books then?.what with those being JKR's actual words on every page of every book?

That seems like a really boring sub reddit.

So. Book 2 Chapter 3 what does every one think of the way she wrote it was raining? When obviously it was actually just drizzle?

Boiledbeetle · 25/11/2022 19:05

I'm making that up by the way as I have to admit I've never read a Harry Potter book.

Theimpossiblegirl · 25/11/2022 19:15

I get so pissed off with this.
JKR is amazing, she just rises above the shit. I, however, get really annoyed.

howmanybicycles · 25/11/2022 19:38

Why are they proud of being sexist pigs?
