Here's an honest question. Are we allowed to buy Harry Potter stuff after JKR is dead, since she won't get paychecks from it anymore?

I don't but it now, think I missed the hype train by being too old when it hit it's hype.

But the biggest issue is JKR getting the money not the franchise? Or am I missing something where the franchise and license owners are also anti-trans?

I can't keep up with everything, but I know Harry Potter is getting a lot of hate and I'm out of the loop besides JKR just being a cunt on social media.

Yeah, pretty much. No one is gonna give you shit for reading H.P. Lovecraft.

Well, unless you're being weird about it

Steal it instead!

[-] Soulg@ani.social 2 points 2 months ago

I mean... You're allowed to buy it now, whether or not you choose to do so

If you really want that unoriginal fantasy slop so bad just pirate it. No point in giving any money to a transphobe, alive or to her estate.

Funny you mention it, because I was thinking of going back and reading all the Dilbert strips I missed out on after Scott Adams went mask-off racist. Am I allowed?

(edit: LOL, looks like a moot point, I tried going there just now and the server doesn't seem to be running)
