Still not enough for them. Imagine someone from just the 1950’s transporting to current day America.
They wouldn’t believe it otherwise.

Left eats their own. There is some good from this as the occult-loving books are not popular anymore.

She is a hardcore communist who doesn’t think men should compete/beat women. Not communist enough for the purists.

It’s amazing to watch all the old novels like 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 come to life.
So many people are so ignorant and hateful that they don’t realize how they appear to others.
I welcome these displays of mental disturbance because it shows us exactly who we are dealing with.

Libraries are dinosaurs. Homeless shelters and safe havens for pedophiles. Quite sad.

Sad indeed. I spent many, many hours in public libraries over the years, but haven’t been in one for at least 10 years now.

The transtards had to actually buy the books first.

If anyone looked at actual Twitter or TickTock numbers the numbers voicing ANY opinion are NEVER any majority anywhere, not even any majority of Twitter or TickTok subscribers. The only “majority” they ever, but not always, represent, is some “majority” of those expressing any opinion at all.

So now what counts for “democracy” is merely, “I got a bigger crowd together than you did” (on Twitter or TickTok) while the vast majority of who could have possibly joined any mob did not care enough to say anything.

How to self-correct this?

EVERYONE just quit using places like Twitter or TickTok as a “voting” platform for ANYTHING.

To all snowflakes and SJWs: Please feel free to buy large quantities of Rowling’s books and burn them.
The Publisher and the author thank you for the free publicity and for the sales. The Publisher will be happy to print more if they run out of editions to burn.
The author has already made her “Eff-You” money from the Harry Potter series but is happy get more royalties from these sales so that she can increase her net worth or, more likely, donate to her favorite charities.

“One video, posted by TikTok user @elmcdo shows a number of “Harry Potter” books being placed on a burning pyre.”

So, one video equates to “spreading like wildfire”...

Snickers galore.

Where is Greta Thunberg to shake her head and scream at these people for polluting our planet?
