J K Rowling and her transphobia, why?

25. Look up the name of the Black student.

There's also a lot of fat shaming in the books.

Honestly, it's a mix. The books contain positive messages about kindness, courage and perseverance. But the mocking names the author gives many characters, her relentless picking on overweight characters, and several other problematic issues undermine her positive messages. They reinforce the bullying she claims to hate.

My biggest problem with the books, though, is that they're not at all original. Whole scenes and characters are pulled from 150 years of British fantasy fiction. It's one thing to pay homage, but what she did is more akin to using AI to write a fantasy series. And the later books are much too long and boring. Yes, I read them all.
