I never said anyone is incapable of being rational, but you definitely seem on the border of that. I have no idea what most of your babbling is about. I don't spend my time on social media, I don't believe I've ever read any post on anything from JK Rowling, Vans definitely not loads of right-wing talking points.

You seem so full of hate and eagerness to show what a great person you are and fight the evil demons who must be anyone who doesn't agree with you that in your head your warp anyone who isn't a fan of the loud endless virtue signaling into the antilove child of Charlie Kirk and Hitler.

I don't give a single fuck about JK Rowling. I've never said I'd do. I don't support her as a person. If she catches on fire right now I wouldn't mind.

Perhaps you should take some time to look into literary and artistic history. See how many great artists and authors were completely horrible people. I'm absolutely capable of enjoying a form of art without the artist having to have been a wonderful person. A painter can be a complete sack of shit, but if they painted a beautiful sunrise that looking at makes my day better I'm not going to start hating that thing. I'm sorry that you're so caught up on hatred and anger that you're unable to appreciate the simple fact that even awful people can create beautiful things, and insist on hating those things as well. Seems like a sad way to go through life.
