When you say "queer friendly", are you, the admin of the instance, gender diverse and thus directly impacted by Rowling's transphobia? Because that's the only voice that I'm open to hearing "queer friendly" from when it comes to Potter and Rowling.
If you're not impacted by her bigotry, you have no place claiming that it's queer friendly, whilst actively refusing to engage with the reality of her transphobia.
So you have to be part of the queer movement to be queer friendly ? Please go gatekeep something else
It's easier to determine if something is queer friendly or not. If you are just an outsider how can you accurately say what's queer friendly?
So if I'm not both a woman and a man I can't see sexism? That's an easy way out of responsibility.
