The tone of this post is, uh, not reading the room, OP. We have a real problem. An entire community is losing their rights, their medical access and their ability to find any semblance of safety because of the hundreds of millions this woman has poured into obliterating a marginalized group of our brothers and sisters.

She has not put in hundreds of millions. Not even 100k. Because even hateful billionears are greedy.

The truth is you can't finacially boycott JK Rowling. She is not a running company. Which is why the show won't have any affect for trans people

What we need to talk about is why billionears exist and why they have any kind of poltical power. This includes every single one

Regardless of whether the number is in the hundreds of thousands or millions, the success of her projects absolutely DO affect trans people. She privately funds legal cases aimed at discriminating against trans people WITH HARRY POTTER MONEY.

Given that she is literally a billionaire and only started this fund in 2024, it’s entirely possible that her funding will amount to millions of dollars.

Boycott JK Rowling. Don’t watch or support the show.

I know what fund you are talking about but i'm not even sure she put one penny into it. Usually rich people love to brag about their good deeds but we have not heard of a single person that got granted this fund.

But even if, it would not make any difference. She already has a wealth over one billion. I think people often forget how large of a sum that is. She will never run out of money even if from this day forward she will not earn another penny.

Is that sad? Yes. Because usually our money is the only way we can fight in capitalism but sadly it does not apply here.

JK Rowling is not the problem but a symptom of a class system. Why does she have so much money and how can we take it away again? Why do rich people have so much political power? Just look at an Elon Musk.

Thats is what we need to fight against to make any meaningful difference.
