People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No bullying or international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

Isn't that the point tho? The author created a purposefully imperfect world where the children could recognize the injustices and stand up against them. That's role modeling the right behavior. Our world is certainly not perfect and we have to stand up against bigotry and injustice (like transphobia). And the heros in the hp stories make mistakes but they learn and improve themselves - Rowling could learn from her own books!
