They've made it clear this game is not affiliated with JK, just let people enjoy what they like in spite of the shitty creators. Literally everything you love is created by a shitty creator.

This just isn't true. When any HP thing does well, it convinces WB that they should keep making more things in universe. It's quite possible they wouldn't be making the show if Legacy hadn't sold well, and Joanne absolutely is directly a part of that.
Also, Joanne owns the IP license. They still have to pay her for the rights to use her characters. She’s still making money off it even if she’s not directly involved with the game’s development.
It goes beyond that even. She's come out and said that the fact that people are still so into HP despite her views "proves" that people as a whole don't give a shit about trans folks and/or actively back her view of them. There is no way to engage with this that does not harm trans people.
Oh, and unlike the above and virtually everything else I love, even extending to the ones who are shitty on some part:
she is a BILLIONAIRE
she has a unique power to corrupt ACTUAL FUCKING POLITICS to make people's lives worse, and every dollar you give her is expressly powering her to do so.
She literally uses the money from royalties to fund political opposition to trans rights. The UK Supreme Court cited HER when they ruled that trans people don’t have the right to self-identity. It’s not that hard to avoid funding LITERAL fascism
There are, quite literally, countless songs, shows, videos, podcasts, video games, and TTRPGs made by dedicated independent creators & artists who are not, in fact, billionaire transphobes
People should be notified if & when their behavior advances bigotry.
The money literally goes to her though, and considering how prominent this topic was when the first game came out, it's WILD you still don't know that.
Being trans doesn't mean you don't hate trans people, and it doesn't make you immune to criticism. But I guess asking people not to buy a single video game is too much to ask in support of the trans community.
You mean, you don't care about transsexual women. Name the actual victim. Feminists like jkr are opposed to the idea of changing your sex and passing as a woman. Don't lie and pretend this is about someone else.

Toby Fox, Extremely OK Games, K. A. Applegate, Lilith Walther, all are pretty excellent developers studios and writers.
JK is uniquely bigoted and racist.

SHE LITERALLY MAKES MONEY OFF THE I.P AND HAS ADMITTED TO USING THE MONEY SHE MAKES OFF H.P TO HARM TRANS PEOPLE LIKE YOU.
*LIKE US
This "(she/they) 🏳️⚧️" here doesn't care about trans people.
(hell, klandace owens is a white supremacist)
not saying you're any of them, not at all
just saying that *being* trans doesn't automatically exempt you from criticism
