This "Goblin Artifact" is in fact an ancient Jewish musical instrument. A Shofar.

The team that made this game has explicitly leaned into the "goblins are jews" antisemitism.

just following in the movie's footsteps with putting six-pointed stars in the bank when that was never in the book

Tbf that is just the floor of the actual building that was filmed in.

But hey maybe uh, pick a different filming location. Or cover it up.

I thought Rowling had a reputation for demanding close control over her movies, though. Considering her track record of high-visibility dogwhistling (like her pen name), I have a hard time believing that the stars of David weren't a factor in choosing the set location

If it was a coincidence, then she must have been over the moon about her luck

Oh absolutely. At the very best it was something that someone should’ve noticed and said “Hey maybe we should cover that up” but I 100% think Rowling saw it and was like “This set’s perfect!”

What’s her name a dog whistle for?

Since 2013 she's been publishing her pulp mystery as Robert Galbraith

The most notable person with that name is the MKUltra-ass psychiatrist who invented 'gay conversion therapy', Robert Galbraith Heath
