JK Rowling is public enemy #1 to the trans community. No well known celebrity has raised their ire like Rowling, who has merely said there is a difference between men acting like women and y’know, actual women.
Don’t get me wrong. Rowling is a leftie but she’s a feminist who believes that there is a difference between men and women. Crazy, huh? But Rowling is the target of the twitterati. The LGBT community has focused intensely on Rowling.
Sooooo…what’s happened to the launch of the latest Harry Potter video game in the face of this brutal cancellation?
It is the biggest launch for any Harry Potter game ever, with sales 64% higher than the previous best — Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone from 2001. In fact, the biggest week for a Harry Potter game wasn’t a launch week at all, it was the second week of the Philosopher’s Stone (due to hype around the movie). Even compared to that week, Hogwarts Legacy was still bigger by 2%.
This result is more impressive when you consider this is just for physical sales. Hogwarts Legacy would have received a substantial number of digital downloads (that data will come later in the week), whereas Philosopher’s Stone didn’t have any digital sales back in 2001. Therefore, the success will be even more pronounced once all the data is in…
Compared to last year’s big fantasy release, which was Elden Ring, Hogwarts Legacy’s first week sales are up 80%.
Here’s the lesson. Twitter is not real life. It is a tempest in a tea cup. The left has taken over online media and Big Media trumpets their every accusation but in the end they are merely a very weird minority who can only win if we let them.
Don’t let them.

Some of the most effective elections are the ones where people vote with their feet or wallets.
Having said that. JK Rawlings is an example of the liberal feminist who jumped off the cultural cliff in support of abortion and changing the definition of marriage; and now wants to stop on the way down because things have gone ‘too far’.
Little Ashley can continue losing trophies until her mother and grandmother reverse the cultural rot they fomented. The unreality of pretending a man can become a woman is a direct result of pretending that two people of the same sex can be in a marriage and the unreality of pretending unborn children aren’t really human.
Although not very nutritious, schadenfreude is still a most delectable dish.
