I'm Not Going To Lie, I Was A Little Scared To Say Anything About This As Everything Has Felt So Hostile
I'm not going to lie, I was a little scared to say anything about this as everything has felt so hostile and explosive.
But at the same time, I feel like I would be doing a disservice to all my dear friends of the LGBTQIA+ community if I didn't say something.
What JK Rowling has been saying on Twitter is nothing short of absolutely disgusting. I hate how she has been using her platform as a famous author to spread hate and vile propaganda. She had great power, and she had absolutely abused it. JKR has proven she has no intention of changing and that she is overall a vile woman.
That being said, I don't think the fight will be won by completely ignoring what the franchise was for so many people. If you or anyone you know needs to step away from it all for awhile, then they should absolutely do that as their mental health matters! But for those of us who can, I think it's time we fight.
She has absolutely no right to say that when we read her books, we support her political views. That is not what literature or movies are for. If that were the case, there would be a ton of media we'd have taken away due to that very fact. Books and art in general are meant to inspire people. It's a medium for personal interpretation and inspiration.
So, you might ask, what's next? I say we ignore her from now on. If you haven't already, unfollow her on everything. Stop buying any new merch that she is involved in. Stop consuming any new Harry Potter media that she is involved in the creation of. And support the fans who want nothing to do with her.
If you really want Harry Potter merch, buy it second hand or from a fan-run business. Read Harry Potter fanfiction; there are so many wonderful fanfics out there written by wonderful people. Let's take back the Wizarding World and make it what it always was to us: a place of creativity and for many of us a place of community.
I will always support the fans who go on to create things that she would HATE because of her horrible viewpoints. Keep it up! Keep spreading love and positivity. One day, she'll become nothing but a footnote.
I love you all and keep fighting the good fight! 🩵

Remus Lupin has always been honest, he never sees a need to lie.
Sirius Black has been lied to and been fed propaganda about muggles/muggle-borns by his parents all his life.

Sirius Black hates lies.
Remus Lupin never lies.
It's why Sirius was so determined to find out where Remus was going every month, because it was the only time he wasn't brutally honest.
if a teenager is at your door and they are wearing a costume!! please give them candy!! they are still in it for the halloween spirit and it honestly no different from a little kid in a costume. they are just as excited and happy as all the other lil tykes and dont you dare tell them they are “too old for trick-or-treating” because that will literally break their hearts and that’s not cool.

sirius black is terrible in social situations unless he's flirting because of his upbringing, in this essay I will-
the mauraders fandom is just a big group project where we keep going of each other's ideas and making it bigger and bigger while all simultaneously ignoring the teachers instructions cause we hate her
