    Since you mentioned HP: seeing all the shitty views of Rowling coming to light also just destroyed my enjoyment of these stories. As a kid I used to love HP but now it just leaves a bitter taste in my mouth

      I feel bad for my sibling personally. I at best thought the series was kind of fun but they were a massive Potterhead. We are however both different flavors of non-binary trans. My sibling is the kindest and most principled soul and seeing them go through essentially a grieving process made me fairly furious at the author not just for the shit she was spewing but the pain she was causing my younger sibling.
