Last week we talked about controversy surrounding Hogwarts Legacy, and we talked about whether art or other content can be enjoyed without endorsing everything the artist or creator has said or done. We focused more on the broader conversation and didn't get into the weeds of what Rowling said that started this newest example of weaponized sensitivity. Today I dive into her story and what I believe her intentions are based on her own words and interviews, and consider the perspective of this woman's journey who has overcome struggles that only a woman can.
