Maybe I wasn't clear, I don't think calling out Rowling's shitty views is part of the problem. What I was trying to point at was that fandoms are just a means of marketing and people are too uncritical about how capitalism interferes with art. People are getting steered towards "investing" time and attention into something that isn't really worth it, and the author, unable to follow up the success because she really isn't that talented, instead clamps on the attention by putting out edgy political statements.
