A new set of full-cast Harry Potter audiobooks are coming despite J.K. Rowling's obsessive posting about trans people
The juggernaut of Harry Potter really can’t be stopped, even as J.K. Rowling descends further and further into an obsession with the rhetoric of trans-exclusionary radical feminism. The latest stop on the gravy train is a new set of audiobooks from Audible and Pottermore Publishing . Setting apart from the beloved Stephen Fry and Jim Dale narrations, these will be full-cast audio productions with more than 100 actors, per Variety.
Meanwhile, Rowling is constantly posting about trans issues on Twitter/X, to the point where it’s more than a little weird. Even setting aside the bigotry inherent in Rowling’s views, it’s an unhealthy amount of time to spend on any one issue, especially when you could be spending that time luxuriating in your castle or, like, writing another book. To demonstrate how far down the rabbit hole we are at this point, last month Rowling blundered into denying aspects of the Holocaust.
