Absolutely! You don't have any say in what family you are born into, they might be good, might suck ducks, more likely somewhere in between. You can choose family that are not biologically related to you, and love them as purely or even more so than you do biological family. Many refer to their close friends as chosen family for this very reason. Love who you love and be happy, no matter who may try to piss on your happiness.

Ah, my mistake. Thanks for the correction

Thank you for responding. I have boiled down the aggregate of answers as basically a tankie supports authoritarianism, or use of violence to deal with opposition. If this take is incorrect, someone please correct where I have it wrong. Btw, I have deliberately ignored references to left/right as meaningless in my quest for information.

I've run across these terms several times, but without enough context to figure out what they mean. Could someone help me out, please?

ETA All of you are amazing! A huge thank you to everyone who responded, and an extra thank you to those who have provided links or explanations to further and/or related information. I am learning so much by reading all of these comments!

Prisoner of Azkaban was my favorite for that one shining moment of hope for Harry, that he could live with someone who knew his parents, loved them, and loves him. The hope was dashed too quickly though, I cried harder when Sirius died (in order of the Phoenix) than I did when Dumbledore died.

Not really, you can love the stories and still not support the views of the author

I have 50+ years experience being a cis woman in this world. I have fought tooth and nail from early childhood to not be dehumanized, objectified and controlled. I'm fucking tired of having to fight all the goddamned time to simply exist unmolested. I specifically seek out spaces where I don't have to do that so I can actually relax and enjoy myself for a change. If you want to tolerate assholery, fine, go wallow with the pigs I don't give a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut. But arguing against keeping this space clear of that bullshit directly affects me, and that I care about and will push back against.
