What's the deal with the Hogwarts game? Why are trans people mad?
@critical some of them are just mad because it's a Rowling property and they want her to be cancelled but people would rather enjoy good stories than care about terf wars.
the Jews are mad because the bankers are gnomes

@critical nah the gnomes are basically the greedy merchant stereotype she just characterized them as a fantasy race so they could be hated on while being disconnected from the race. It used to be a common fantasy (and star trek) trick.
Rowling once said a trans girl can't into pregnancy or something and this caused their eternal anger.

@icedquinn @critical 1. goblins. they are greedy subhumans with a long nose and various stereotypically jewish mannerisms. oops. also the game is set during a goblin slave rebellion, and the date and historical context given in the game is kind of very similar to some anti-jewish pogroms irl
2. this is understating it, jkr is being very transphobic in general, overtly in fact, is a strong supporter of various transphobic organizations, and she's like one of the main origins of the recent UK TERF wave

@chjara @icedquinn @critical i'm pretty sure that in the movie, gringotts bank has david's stars on the floor decoration
@sfr @critical @icedquinn @chjara
That is because it's a fucking real bank.
You cannot blame antisemitism on shit the jews just do openly.
