    How about trying to break the loop?

    I think monitoring and mocking these freaks facilities that goal.

    Orthodox Catholic Transgender Draco Malfoy is about as big a thumb in the eye of every end of the right wing spectrum. That they’ve done this to themselves is worth trumpeting. Especially when half the GOP has pinned their campaign strategy to “Be afraid of transgender athletes, Catholicly”

        still normalises the HP franchise

        “JD Vance Base voters are really into HP right now” is definitely what’s keeping the franchise alive

          That is not what I said.

          “Both nerds and normies making HP references, memes, buying merch etc” is keeping the franchise alive. Bonus points for “woke” nerds. That’s why I’d love to see these references die down. I’d love seeing HP mercy disappear, the TV show, movies, theatre plays flopping, etc. And what we internet nerds can do is (in the context of a meme community) not use that franchise for memes.
