If it doesn't matter whether you buy the Hogwarts game because Rowling is a billionaire either way, does it also mean that it doesn't matter if you use Twitter because it's going to go bankrupt from the annual $1.5 billion interest payments either way?

Twitter is owned by a billionaire transphobe that gets money just by you looking at his website.

it is in fact possible for Wizard Game and Bird Website to both be bad.

I don’t have to spend a single cent or even participate in the platform to get everything I want out of Twitter, and it’s dying.

Yes, they’re both bad, but saying they’re the same is moving the goalposts to a point where they have no business being.

You should use Twitter actually, to help overload it and bring it down to its final death because everyone who could fix it was fired for not sucking off Elon

Most people buying the game aren't technically adult HP fans, because the books came out when they were kids. They're just nostalgia brained.

Real talk for a moment -

A vast majority of people are very offline and have no clue about JK Rowling and her transphobia and poo poo like that. They just want to play wizard game that makes them think of being a kid. The only crime they're committing is playing a fairly mid game about a lame fantasy series. But regardless, these people don't deserve to be harassed. Sure, you could say stuff "You know Rowling is a transphobe" or something along those lines, but these people are so disconnected from all the major events of the world.

Then there are the people who say stuff like "Yeah, I know about JK Rowling's transphobia but...." and that "but..." could be like "no ethical consumption" or "me not buying won't make a difference" or "I just want to play wizard game." These people deserve ridicule. :colbert:

There is a direct correlation between how online someone is and how much they deserve to be shamed and ridiculed.

In a zoom call a trans person told me that my Hufflepuff mug that I got for christmas 23 years ago was making them uncomfortable, so I guess I'll rent this game from the library? I'm not sure how it works anymore.

No. SA is now dominated by a small subset of severely mentally ill people who are terminally online. They will shriek and spam until their echo chamber is fully formed and safe.
