Universal's partnership with Rowling is lucrative. Financial reports indicate "double-digit" millions every year in royalties and fees to the Harry Potter author, sustaining her personal wealth. This wealth then directly funds her anti-LGBTQIA+ activism. #EpicUniverse (3/4)

Can't believe this is real... We live rent free in the heads of international politicians, billionaire bigots, and their sycophants. Our mission to draw attention to Harry Potter author JK Rowling's bigotry and the support she has fostered for it continues to be a huge success.

Oh this is rich... Harry Potter author JK Rowling implying someone ELSE is drunk. 🥴 (While also signaling to her violent supporters that she wants someone dead.)

A screenshot of a social media post criticizing J.K. Rowling. The post accuses her of sending out idle death threats to her critics. The image shows a tweet from a user named Maryanna Anderson, who says, "It’s pretty fucking misogynistic for you to keep saying I’m a man, you worthless fucking [slur partially censored]." Below it is a reply from J.K. Rowling’s verified account, which says, “Have you had this death wish long, or are you too drunk to remember who you're tweeting at?”

All the main stars of both of JK Rowling's movie series have opposed the Harry Potter author's ever-worsening transphobic bigotry, and distanced themselves from it and her. 3/4

Most Harry Potter stars have firmly stated that they stand on the opposite side of Rowling on the issue of trans rights. Original series stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint have all come out
against Rowling. Even Eddie Redmayne, who has been criticized for
starring as a trans woman in the film The Danish Girl, criticized Rowling's stances. "As someone who has worked with both J.K. Rowling and members of the trans community, I wanted to make it absolutely clear where I stand," he told Variety. "l disagree with Jo's comments. Trans women are women, trans men are men and non-binary identities are valid."

Even Broadway's forgiving 2025 rebound (up 12%) can't save Harry Potter: Every 1% drop in attendance correlates with Rowling’s escalating hate speech. Her December 2024 claim “trans kids don’t exist” coincided with a steep 10.9% attendance plunge. 🔗 www.comicsands.com/rowling-no-t... (4/5)

Warner Bros.' silence speaks volumes. No "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" movie after 8 years. Meanwhile, Daniel Radcliffe's 2024 Tony Award-winning turn on Broadway got the green light for a movie version after just FOUR MONTHS on stage. (3/5)

This isn’t a blip... it's a 50% attendance freefall from the JK Rowling-owned play’s 2019 heyday. When your $68M Harry Potter production needs "4-Pack Offers" to fill seats, you aren't topping charts... you're running a fire sale. The TERF tax is real. (2/5)
