It cannot be made clearer.
If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life.
And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

We gays grew up hearing politicians claim that gay people having kids was “against nature,” “social engineering,” “grooming,” “ideology,” etc. Now this rhetoric is recycled to degrade trans lives. This is why the fight against transphobia is also a fight against homophobia. Bigots will trash us all.

Money that JKR earns from Harry Potter is used to fund legal actions designed to reduce trans women’s rights, e.g. in the workplace.
The harms from this will affect all trans communities.
Personally, I will do what I can to not line her purse further.

No one who cares about wildlife and ecosystems is now likely to vote Labour in 2029.
Or about Gaza.
Or poverty.
Or inequality.
Or international aid.
Or corporate power.
Or democratic reform.
Or racism.
Or trans rights.

What an absolutely revolting disappointment the UK Labour Party have turned out to be. Sacrificing everything - everything - to chase a chimaeric single digit percentage of Reform voters who are never going to vote for them anyway. Pathetic.

This "debate" about who should use what toilet doesn’t benefit anyone. It doesn’t fix the underfunding of women's refuges, NHS waiting lists leaving women in terrible pain, mums skipping meals to feed their kids. How about we get on with tackling the real issues affecting women?

Reminder to cis journalists, editors, podcasters, etc: actually ask trans people to write and speak about the Supreme Court ruling and EHRC update.
Half of you don’t know the difference between a trans man and a trans woman. Your opinion isn’t needed. Ours is.
