It’s really easy to just give something up when it has no impact on your health. If this were something that had decent support communities, it’d be one thing, but even long time fans that organized relating to HP (the quidditch league) have since dropped anything to do with her or the intellectual property. If people profiting from the series can drop it over JK, so can you. I literally understand people going to chik-fil-a more readily than I understand people who enjoy HP over any other fantasy author, particularly when there’s good high fantasy and modern fantasy all over the place now. Not to mention, the HP fanbase can’t even take criticism.
Homestuck fans are literally more reasonable. Please, read some Jim Butcher (the Dresden Files). It has been well over 20 years since wizard rock, and the hate has been spewing from rowling’s mouth for over a decade. You are clinging to a series that people want nothing to do with on a large scale out of allegiance to a children’s novel, full of ideas you claim you don’t support but you will argue with people for criticizing, written by an actual lunatic. It’s unconscionable.
You’ve been told throughout the thread that it makes people uncomfortable when someone talks about harry. Every time, you’ve doubled down and gone full middle school debate club, pretty much showing everyone who said so they were right. Hell, some of these people were replying to someone else and you felt the need to jump in and defend the world of spells conceived in one look at a latin dictionary. Some of the least interesting magic ever written, and you’re not even involved, and at the drop of a hat you’ll defend it.
You may not be a bigot but you railroad arguments like one, your ethics are confused, your “seperate the artist” line of thinking works a lot better when the artist is dead and not constantly feeding a hate machine with money. Hell, every time a new licensed harry potter product comes out, idiots like you are INSISTING that rowling will get no funds from “muh royalties” despite her getting estate getting equity in the product.
Also, for the love of everything, stop using the word “Logic”. You clearly haven’t studied Aristotelean or Socratic logic, and you sound like a 4chan regular. Great way to defend your beloved series.
You posted this and then blocked me lmao. You’ve misrepresented yourself, argued in bad faith, and STILL done all this in support of a bigot and their work. Stay stupid, I guess!
What, you really think middle school debate club over here uses the word “logic” for anything but browbeating? If you’re not using syllogisms, it’s 4channer buzzword speak and not logic.
The guy still think that logic didn’t evolve past Aristotle and basic syllogisms, even after a couple of millenia, and argues about a supposed Socrates logic (?) that involves them (???)
They have no idea what they’re talking about other than some random information that they found online, probably.
I wouldn’t expect any kind of real logical argument from there.
The funniest thing is that you showed them a perfect example of socratic reductio ad absurdum, but it completely flew over their head because they are too busy trying to argue about syllogisms…

Did the person bringing up “Aristotelean or Socratic logic” say someone sounded like a 4chan user???
🤣 holy shit thanks for the laugh.

A single syllogism requires 3 steps, you have 2 here. Back to debate club, kiddo
