When the Harry Potter series took off in the early 2000s, many conservative Christians warned parents that the book series was a gateway to witchcraft. Nineteen years later, activists on the far left are burning J.K. Rowling’s books because the author denies their favored kind of witchcraft — or rather, because she doesn’t embrace it fervently enough.
As Newsweek reported, former Harry Potter fans started a trend on TikTok, burning Rowling’s books on video.
TikTok user @elmcdo burned a pile of Harry Potter books on a pyre. “You have to stop using ‘death of the author’ as an excuse to have your cake and eat it too,” a voiceover says in the video. “While the reader’s perspective is an important part of interpretation and meaning, it is impossible to completely divorce a work from its creator.”
“The positive impact that J.K. Rowling’s work had on millions of readers does not negate how her hateful lobbying has affected the trans community,” the video alleges. “Your love of ‘Harry Potter’ is not more important than the lives of trans women.”
CEREMONIALLY BURNING JK ROWLING'S HARRY POTTER BOOKS

John and Edward Grimes, the Irish singing duo known as “Jedward,” encouraged their 600,000 followers to torch Rowling’s latest book. “Does anyone need firewood this winter! JK’s new book is perfect to burn next to a Romantic fire,” the duo tweeted with a fire emoji. “Aww get all cozy and comfy can’t wait.”

Stand back while they eat their own. Just like the dumbest Broadway play ever conceived - Hamilton.
I read a book on George Washington.
Hamilton was a bit of a dick. He is why we have political ‘parties’ (Washington was against them.)
Among other dickness activities
Tolerating gays was the camels nose in the tent.
It went from toleration to forced acceptance.
Anywhere they forced acceptance they have ruined life for NONO-gays. And it is clearly done ON-PURPOSE.
Look at The Boy Scouts. 20 years ago they demanded we accept gay scout leaders. Today the Boy Scouts are bankrupt because of gay sexual assaults on children by scoutmasters.
Now we are well into forced compliance. Soon it will be a crime NOT TO let a gay man have sex with you.
Bob Hope nailed it.
“I’ve just flown in from California, where they’ve made homosexuality legal. I thought I’d get out before they make it compulsory.”
You can’t ignore another factor in the demise of Boy Scouts - the lack of young boys (actually children in general) in the West. The foreign population in my state of NJ generally doesn’t allow their children to go away with unrelated adults.
The entire “trans” crew should be medicated and segregated from society in secure facilities or put down.
There’s no excuse for Republicans failing to make a big issue about transgenderizing and homosexualizing children. They would attract votes from people who are not prone to vote for them.
Lord Voldemort taught Millennials to find racism everywhere.
IMO, In Washington's cabinet, Jefferson was an even bigger dick than Hamilton.
