It pissed me off so bad that she put the homo crap out that I refuse to have anything else to do this author or any work that comes from her.
Totally unneeded and totally uncalled for crap.
Well.... I know exactly why she did it though.
She has taken so much crap from fundamentalists over the years that she just had to yank their chain one last time I think.
All she did was utter 5 syllables - “Dumbledore was gay.” And she threw them into an enraged frenzy.
Did it mean anything at all? Nope. Did she write it in the books where the kids could read it? or even imply it ever in the story? Nope.
She did it during a press conference just after getting done once again answering questions about whether her life’s work was intentionally written to turn kids away from the church.
It was calculated and had the exact effect she intended it to have, flaunt the wrath of those who have been attacking her since the first book was published and the success it had in promoting reading for literally millions of children worldwide.
But since it wasn’t the bible they were reading people have been attacking her for turning children’s attention away from what they felt what was the only proper reading for kids. She completely enjoyed herself for once and just dug their hatred toward her a little deeper for the sheer hell of it.
