Had I seen this in the wild, I wouldn't have known what the gently caress it was about. If someone had told me it was a Rowling thing I would have assumed it was telling her to gently caress off with her anti-trans witch hunt. So, good job I guess? edit: bionic vapour boy posted:Michael Rosen's tweeting again

I suspect also there may be a concern of the "gently caress the sun" people being on Rowling's side. But I hope not. I have an infinite supply of spite.

The Sorting Hat is the true villain of the Harry Potter books. Voldemort would never had any supporters when he returned if that loving hat hadn’t drafted a quarter of British wizard children into the Hitler Youth. It enforces a bullshit caste system on children that we are repeatedly shown has effects into adulthood. gently caress that hat.

It enforces a bullshit caste system on children that we are repeatedly shown has effects into adulthood. I can't remember if this explicitly comes up, but I bet the adults tend to hang out with people from their own "house" and they have trouble talking to 3/4 of the population. And when they meet foreign wizards, don't know how to mentally categorise them. A healthy system! Unrelated, I'm deriving backwards from an Ash tweet here, but I feel like some service might have dropped the Fawlty Towers episode where the Major says the n-word. Or, some gammons think they're about to. Now, in fairness, the joke is that the Major is an out-of-touch racist even for the 1970s, but still. The outrage is immense, and you just know that they're mad they can't titter at the bad word being said on TV! And banning our cultural heritage!

No idea, again, never watched it. According to the guardian however: "It is unclear what prompted the company to stop streaming the episode, which culminates in Cleese’s character making comments about the second world war to a German family. The original broadcast also included a scene in which Major Gowen, a regular guest at the hotel, uses very strong racist language in relation to an anecdote about the West Indies cricket team. A decade ago many broadcasters began editing out this part of the programme, although the racist language can still be heard on the version hosted by Netflix. The Fawlty Towers episode in question, first shown in 1975, also features Cleese’s bigoted character apparently shocked at being treated in hospital by a black doctor." https://www.theguardian.com/media/2020/jun/11/fawlty-towers-dont-mention-the-war-episode-removed-from-uktv?CMP=twt_a-culture_b-gdnculture OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 08:31 on Jun 12, 2020 |

OwlFancier posted:https://twitter.com/i/events/1271233299332005888 Oh good, that will add to the confusion. Yes, that is the episode in which the Major uses both the n-word and the w-word (joke: Basil thinks he's objecting to the use of the words, when actually he's just making sure they're applied to the correct minority). Basil is also outrageously offensive to the Germans after getting hit on the head, and I don't think we're meant to side with him there. Predictably, people latch on to both these things as hilarious in themselves, and quote them as examples of "back when you were allowed to say things". Ash talks sensibly about putting bad words in characters mouths in her tweets: https://twitter.com/AyoCaesar/status/1271194254510080000
