I can totally see people will have rational reactions to this and not overact in a counter productive way that just makes people look over zealous. If you don't want to watch the show. That is perfectly fine and I support your decision. But stop with assuming the worst intent from people involved

With this show and stop assuming like you know their personal beliefs. Here's the cold truth, no matter what, Harry Potter will always remain one of the most profitable pop culture franchises for better and for worse. Treating those who take part in anything Harry Potter as pure evil or saying

You'll refuse to watch anything they're i, just kind of turns off alot of potential allies who don't want to deal with being called a bad person just because they like Harry Potter. Last thing I will say, there are many many things out there in the world that have very problematic people attached to

Them. If you expect people to stop interacting with everything that has someone problematic atatched in an influential aspect to something, then you A: have very unrealistic expectations and B: would have to give up and swear off so many things to the point of not having any fun and being miserable

Simple truth is: The more people react violently or aggressively towards it all, the more it pushes literally everyone away from empathizing with the LGBTQ+ on this issue Best people can do is ignore it in this case. Potter is already over-the-hill fantasy, and people are already moving on.

I liked Potter growin up (before knowing Her), but even by the end of the last movies, the franchise was already tired. HP Fans have been insufferable for over a decade now, and pouring on the hate only galvanizes them. Let them spend loads of cash, have dwindling numbers, and quietly get canceled.
