Because Harry Potter fans, including the adults are children.
I am 58. I've read War and Peace, Ulysses, LOTR and the Harry Potter series and that's fine because I'm not an insecure child.
PS fuck JKR.
And Star Wars fans are not?
Star Wars fans at their worse are more like adult teenagers. The types that made it their whole personality.
When you tell a HP fan that they shouldn't give Rowling money, they whine like a spoiled child having their candy taken away.
Different children.
They are both children, the adults of which should feel ashamed for liking such basic crap
No fun allowed 😠
I happen to think you should feel ashamed for judging what people harmlessly enjoy. Guess we each have our pet peeves.
Harry Potter is the cash cow intellectual property of a billionaire who's made it her life's goal to eradicate trans women.
If you're an HP fan and think it's harmless, you're showing the world exactly what kind of person you are.
I am not ashamed to judge you for your shitty morals and lack of taste.
