The more you read into the themes of Rowling’s work, the more you realize she just has very poor media literacy in general.

Taxes exist to provide common goods, I think preventing mass food insecurity is a common good lol. Healthier population of your country is good for everyone in it, not just the people getting the food.
Take valid social commentary about capitalism’s commodification of intimate relationships and the impact that has on our ideas of dating
Turn it into ridiculous, hyperbolic, misogynistic, victim complex nonsense
Oh yeah, we’re greentexting today.
To be fair, when you’re touch-starved and attracted to women sometimes it really feels like they’re the most important thing in life lol.
Grandma is republican suffering from some sort of cognitive decline because this will get her sent to hell if Christianity is correct
Literally looks just like Abraxas
I used to work in HR. Can confirm that some managers will just pay out bullshit claims because it would be expensive to litigate.
If you can confidently say that your work interactions are “high quality” then I envy you lol. Work people and real people are two different sets of people to me.
I think Mickey just serves as a stand-in for Disney in general
The landlord doesn’t do all repairs themselves, they pay someone to do repairs. Most regular maintenance of the property is the responsibility of the tenant. That’s why people treat investment properties as passive income, because effectively they are.
Those with college education and who are politically active tend to lean towards the left, it’s good to remember that. A lot of people, especially right-leaning people, have no fucking idea what policies they’re actually voting for and operate purely off vibes and buzzwords.
These people think that everyone in government is a secret pedo rapist, I’m sure having someone flaunt their immorality feels comparatively more moral. The problem obviously being that not everyone is govt is actually a pedo rapist lmao.
I feel like it has to be the second thing, but not everyone has those religious experiences, and even the religious don’t always correlate these things to God. It just requires so many layers of weird assumption that I really don’t know what to think.
Very few people voted for Trump based on his policy decisions. Most people just see him as a Washington outsider who speaks his mind and that’s where it starts and ends. They like him as a person.
That’s why they call it wage slavery
The answer to questions like these is always money.
The refusal of the religious right to acknowledge how material conditions affect humans is astounding and weird.
I feel like there’s a lot of these, where someone says “how do you explain [extremely basic, everyday thing] without [religion]?”, it’s kinda weird. Like being a certain level of religious makes you immune to all common sense.
Columbo vs anime characters is the best genre of murder mystery
It’s hilarious that she’s making these seem like widespread issues when most of them are literally just one incident, or aren’t happening at all. These are the best examples she can come up with of legitimate grievances against trans people?
How about “bullied to suicide, denied medical care, housing discrimination, employment discrimination, and getting violently hate crimed at enormous rates” for the other side of this issue? Even if you think trans identities are invalid, at least pretend to treat them with the same respect you would other human beings. But no, trans people who are just trying to survive day-to-day are nonchalantly grouped in with pedophile rapists, as if those two things are in any way equivalent.
It’s easy to hate someone when you just ignore what they really are and supplant it with something else entirely.
