That Wizarding Boarding School Series, Part 2

CW: In this episode, we talk about anti-trans hate. If that's not something that is healthy for you right now, this episode may not be for you. In this episode, Stephanie and Brit talk about the anti-trans reign of terror unleashed on Twitter (and elsewhere) by She Who Must Not Be Named. We discuss some of her most unhinged tweets, and how these have reshaped our relationship with HP fandom overall. Ultimately, we conclude that we can't separate the art from the artist, and that, sometimes, we have to say goodbye to our fandoms when they cause material harm in the world. For a thorough response to Rowling's anti-trans claims, we recommend Katy Montgomerie's piece in Medium here.
