I think JK Rowling is still canceled, but... HP stuff is very special to a lot of people. They're able to separate her from the world she created I think.
If asked point blank most would probably be aware of and disagree with her stance on trans people.
Down vote me all you want, I know my opinion is the majority, just not for Lemmy people.
You can't cancel Rowling and keep buying HP stuff. That's giving her money, not separating anything from anything.
You can't buy chocolate and a ton of other common ingredients without supporting slavery. There's no ethical consumption under capitalism, the HP franchise is a small drop in the ocean of suffering. Expecting peole to be aware of all those things and also boycott every single one is not feasible and should be solved top down.
I can't argue with that for sure, but here it's specifically against Rowling. You can't pretend to be boycotting her and keep giving her money through her licenses.
Oh yea true, if anyone is claiming they are boycotting Rowling then they can't really buy any media associated with her while still boycotting her, that's just a contradiction.
Lol OK, no shit, but that's not what I said anyway.
