My roommate made a comment about how JK Rowling hates trans people and we had words. I basically said: “Whats polarizing people is perpetuating ideas like that. That’s a bold claim and I happen to know you can’t back that up. I’ve read what she said, all of it, more than once..

Claims like someone hates trans people because that isnt true and completely shuts down the debate.” He was shocked at my response and had nothing further to say. We went back to what we were doing. Maybe I planted a seed. This began cuz he said doesnt want to support HP anymore.

He did try to argue that it wasn’t political and i was like I’m sorry but it is. Unless we can have a conversation about the nuance of her words it most definitely is political.
