  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Because this "comfort" comes at a cost for other peoples wellbeing.

Not when you don't give her money which is what literally everyone is saying constantly and you're just choosing to ignore so you can try to tell other people what they're allowed to do

Literally my first comment in this chain addresses this

As for this specific instance its not even hard to see how it is harming trans people: talking about hp keeps it in the spotlight which generates more sales.

hp fans and their reading comprehension good god

is it really this difficult to understand that keeping this franchise in the spotlight generates demand which generates sales? So your not literally putting money into the hands of a genocidaire extraordinaire woweee but you're still creating hype around the product.

Edit: turns out this is the 3rd in this comment chain alone that I'm addressing the point you say I'm ignoring lmfao
