    I’m NB and quoting Harry Potter just sounds like you hate me

    Edit: also I get very few people messaging me first

    Edit 2: I really don’t understand the downvotes outside of maybe just enjoying Harry Potter. This is just a personal experience I’ve had.

    Harry Potter stuff directly funds anti-trans organizations and that leads to the furthering decline of mental health among trans people which leads to them dying.

    Sure, an opening message doesn’t send any money to JK but it’s a massive red flag that someone is willing to send money to JK.

    People are allowed to enjoy things, but in turn, I’m also allowed to decide not to talk to someone for funding hate speech.

        And I’m glad you’re able to do that and have people around you that support you. This doesn’t change the fact that I don’t enjoy people who promote something that funds people like me dying.

        If you’re able to get over that, that’s awesome and I believe you deserve good things, I am simply not able to.

        Being non-binary is not the same as being trans… and perhaps they were being downvoted for a different reason.

        I always find it odd when people assume why someone is being downvoted. You never know why someone votes the way they do.
