‘Joy-sucking’ JK Rowling scrubbed from Museum of Pop Culture’s Harry Potter exhibit
NY Post ^ | August 6, 2023 | Jack Hobbs

The Seattle-based Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP) removed all mention of JK Rowling from their “Harry Potter” exhibit after calling her a “cold, heartless, joy-sucking entity,” according to a blog post that was posted in May.

Project manager Chris Moore, who is transgender, authored the piece and claimed that they would “love to go with the internet’s theory that these books were actually written without an author.”

“But this certain person is a bit too vocal with her super hateful and divisive views to be ignored,” continued the post. “For the time being, the curators decided to remove any of her artifacts from this gallery to reduce her impact.”

“It’s not a perfect solution, but it’s what we were able to do in the short-term while determining long-term practices.”

The Daily Mail has reported that MoPOP has kept the “Harry Potter” memorabilia on display, but Rowling’s name is not mentioned anywhere in the exhibit.

Moore’s post continues to point out other ways that Rowling, 58, has supported antisemitic creators and mentions that while writing “Potter,” the author included several racial stereotypes — such as the goblins of Gringotts, whose depiction has been compared to the Jewish community, or the fact that everyone in the books appeared to be white, as well as the lack of LGBTQ representation — and thus fostering a “super-chill outlook on the bigotry.”

“MoPOP is proud to support our employees and unequivocally stands with nonbinary and transgender communities,” the museum told The Telegraph. “In an increasingly divided world, pop culture can unite, inspire, and spark important conversations.”

I would love to see her revive a new Harry Potter series describing for the children the wicked satanic evil of Trans cult.

I’d like to see those weirdos try their stunts in Kabul, Riyadh, Mogadishu or Tehran.

Nothing helps that cause quite like blackballing the Author of the books in the exhibit.

Moore evidence that you must swallow EVERYTHING the woke crowd shovels or you are cancelled.

Their last stunt would be trying to fly from the third floor of a high-rise...

So this mental defective who hates herself so much that she cut off her tits blames everyone else for not "validating" her and is throwing a tantrum. All it will do is cause people to avoid this bilge "museum."
