I 100% know and understand why we hate Rowling, she deserves all the hate she gets, but why do we hate the work itself? I watched those movies when I was little when they were on TV, now couldn’t care less, and only interesting part to me are mythical creatures/monsters. But I still forgot why do we hate it so much??

Can someone remind me and explain me?

    The abuse Harry goes through at the hands of his aunt and uncle would be enough to warp any real life kid.

    Emotional abuse on the calibre that Harry suffers can leave considerable damage to kids that persists into adulthood yet she paints Harry as this well rounded stable child for the most part.

    It just shows that the abuse was nothing more than window dressing for her to characterise the obvious baddies and it’s really questionable and a little callous to anyone who does go through said emotional abuse i think.

    Trauma isn’t a neat plot point Joanne ffs.
