Grow up past being a teenager.

Signed, someone who saw a lot of themself in Harry as an abused child growing up but still put it down because trans people mean more than my nostalgia

Different people react to things differently, and neither reaction in this case is more mature. Your emotional response to JKR is to throw away your love for Harry Potter. This is no more a mature or moral response than that of trans people who still love Harry Potter for how much it meant to them despite hating JK Rowling. Both are pure emotion, and as long as the people who still love HP aren't still supporting anything new and official coming out, telling them to grow up is pure thought-policing.

I bet you love that C.S. Lewis quote about not putting away childish things, until you can use "immature teen who still likes thing I hate" as a guilt trip.

It's not about hating it. I still love Harry Potter. But I recognize real live people are more important than giving a childish womanchild mad that people that aren't stereotypically white cishet exist a platform. My nostalgia doesn't matter. Not putting away childish things is about not letting your inner child die, not clinging to a thing that objectively is causing pain to minorities because you built your entire identity around it and refuse to move on. Only teens and children are so selfish as to look at a huge group of people who also used to find comfort in something nostalgic more important than real live people and the fact their continued consumption and boosting of it gives JKR more political power.

She is literally being cited on lawmaking with how much political sway she has.
