@waz @bric Except for this little bit:

And they kinda very much *are* her views. She did, after all, write a series of books replete with Jewish stereotypes and slavery apologia that, yeah, went over a lot of our heads when the books first came out because yay wizardstuffs, but now in context with everything else, it makes more sense. This game even involves putting down a goblin rebellion.

What are these books ? do you mean Harry Potter ? something else ?

I find it really tiresome that there are accounts still asking supposedly innocent questions. Yes, of course they mean Harry Potter, you're in a discussion about a game set in the school which is central to the plot of the Harry Potter books.

That was not exactly obvious to me, I mean their description is far removed from what I remember the books being. Then there's the fact they don't mention the book by name, and since I'm not familiar with the author's other works, I assumed they may have been referring to an earlier, lesser-known story.

Don't be tired, you're always going to have to clarify stuff for people, and if you're positive about it you maximize the chances of a fruitful interaction

Now I'd love to know what in HP is a slavery apology because I have no memory of that

Also, why "accounts"? instead of "people"

You're not fooling anyone.

That's a good thing, I certainly don't intend to

Not sure why anyone would be suspicious of such a simple interaction lol
