You're comparing a book about wizards and magic to... Mein Kampf?

Not quite. I'm comparing an author that oppressed people to an author that is oppressing people.

The contents of the books never came up in my comment, but nice strawman nonetheless

As a counterpoint; do you think it's acceptable to fund oppression of any marginalised group?

The contents of Mein Kampf are anti Jew... It literally describes the process of becoming anti semetic

Harry Potter is not about becoming anti trans...

Why are you comparing a book about wizards and magic to mein kampf?

We're discussing the authors, not the books.

No. It's not necessary. Read the article.
