Hey H*rry P*tter fans! Want to find ways to express your love for your childhood obsession that formed who you are and all that but you also kinda don& #39;t want to support the author because she& #39;s a transphobic piece of shit? Here& #39;s some solutions for you!
(THREAD)
1) Stop buying official merchandise. There are small creators who make merch that is just as good, and you can put your money to good use by supporting people who love the same things as you, and are not actively campaigning for the destruction of a vulnerable minority.
2) Want to buy the books for your nieces? Consider buying from a second-hand bookstore, or asking people if they& #39;d be willing to donate their old books they& #39;d like to get rid of. Ideally, when the kids are reading them, talk to them about the things in the books that aren& #39;t ok.
3) Want the new game? PIRATE IT. Play and enjoy it without proving to the Terf Wizard Lady that she can do whatever she wants because there will be no consequences.
4) Consume all the fanfiction you can. Support THOSE authors, who are so into the thing you& #39;re into they& #39;re creating countless new stories of it for free. Comment on your favourite fics, share them with your friends. Love the story and the meanings it has for you.
5) REALLY want to support trans people? Read their HP opinions and articles, share them, understand where they& #39;re coming from. RT their nonbinary Harry headcanons and their trans girl Luna fanart. See the story through a different lens.
Understand here that for every one of us that tries to show this woman that her behaviour is not okay, there& #39;s a thousand dedicated fans whose only education about what transgender means comes from her. For every person that decides to boycott her products, there& #39;s a thousand>
that don& #39;t care, or actively support her.
If you truly believe what she& #39;s doing is reprehensible, don& #39;t be silent. Don& #39;t believe that not buying her stuff makes no difference. She believes everyone& #39;s on her side. Show her different. Show her she& #39;s wrong.
