Okay so I've read all these articles now and I've concluded that she's a grump who skates on the edge/wrong side of these issues but has probably done more good than bad? All I wanted to do was laugh at comic book nerds getting mad at an old lady.

Yeah I mean she said she made the conscious decision a long time ago to withdraw and no longer be a public figure and just enjoy her money in peace after they made the movie The problem is then they invented Twitter

Twitter ruins us all, but especially celebrities who come to the platform with built-in audiences Like I seriously think JK Rowling wouldn't be a TERF if she didn't have Twitter

right? At least it feels like she NEEDS to win this fight and it's fucking scary. I don't think she'd have ever thought about it at all in her life if it wasn't for twitter.

Her slow and steady backsliding on this can be directly traced to her constantly growing engagement with social media Like getting that instant dopamine hit of dropping a bit of HP lore on Twitter and getting 2 million RTs and an article written about it in Buzzfeed

Which is what led to them making Pottermore so they could streamline and monetize that process, which is what led to The Cursed Child being made, which then led to them greenlighting Fantastic Beasts And all the shit along the way with wizards pooping on the floor and whatnot

Like I joke about it but I can't imagine anything worse for one's creative process than the fans turning you into a Lore Factory Any random little brain turd you just make up is suddenly Canon Imagine how bad that must break your brain if you start doing it all the time

It's probably *worse* for your cognition than hard drugs That line from Walk Hard "This here is called cocaine, it makes all your bad decisions feel like good ones"
