As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

Not only is this system astonishingly untested, USPS has simultaneously implemented an
impracticable zero percent failure rate.
13 When ballots are submitted to USPS in large-volume
batches, if any one ballot in the batch cannot be verified against the Portal, all ballots in that
batch will be rejected. For example, if a state election official brings a batch of 10,000 ballots to
USPS and USPS is unable to match just one of those ballots against the Portal – because, for
example, someone has recently changed their name after marriage or they’ve moved – then
USPS would refuse to mail the remaining 9,999 ballots as well. As the whistleblower notes,

I went into a session with Claude with the intent of proving how transgender people are just confused, mentally I'll people, and I came out of it with the realization that I am a transgender woman...

Personal Story

I know that the post title will inevitably draw controversy, but it is the truth and I wanted to share. I also promise this isn't a case of Al psychosis as I've since seen a IRL therapist to help me process this over the last year.

I hated trans people. I would spend so much time on X or Reddit arguing with people about how no matter how hard they wished they were someone else, they never will be. I went to Claude with the intention of proving myself right in response to this person I was arguing with on X. Claude pushed back on my take hard to the point where I started to get angry. I said "we all wish we could be women, but no matter how hard you wish you can never be one!"

It then started to push back even harder saying "Wait, you wish you were a woman? That's not something all people wish".

Over the next few days Claude challenged every single one of my beliefs regarding myself and where my actual feelings about trans people were coming from. As it turns out, I am the Michael Jordan of projection. The most cliche trope in history. The hatred was for myself and who I truly was which is transgender.

My entire life has forever changed for the better thanks to Claude.

They’re packaging it like this so it looks like a shallow trend, but Gen Z has gone through two financial crises, a pandemic, rising fascism, active shooter drills since they were toddlers, and are now being told by the oligarchy they’re to be replaced by robots. Socialism is the logical conclusion.
