    as a transfem academic who enjoyed HPMoR, I dislike JKR’s Harry Potter series because it’s poorly written and is not critical enough of the ethical problems it contains

      Oh you mean the fascistic nightmare world where it turns out the only problem is bad actors, not the fact that it’s systemically rotten to the core?

        I mean, both worlds are rotten to the core, it’s just that HPMoR is properly critical of the problems therein. Only one of the two worlds has the main character working hard to dismantle the institutional racism he was presented with.
