i think the problem that a lot of people who refuse to let go of harry potter have is that they think you expect them to have known it was shit from the start because people talk a lot about how it has been criticzed since its release which obviously is a response to people claiming that its now just trendy to hate on things we used to like and that includes harry potter. like no one expects you to have known it was shit when you were 10. those books were one of the first things i actually read and i loved them bc i was a dyslexic child with no friends and they were easy to read and i read some of them over 10 times in one year and i read all the weird nazi wizard bullshit and the antisemitic depictions of goblins and the racist caricatures and i still loved those books because i was Eight Years Of Age. and then later when i found out about jkrs transphobia and i read people talking about her other bigotry i realized in hindsight how bigoted those books were and now i dont like them because im a normal person who changes his opinions based on new information
