As you may have heard, biology deniers are angry with J. K. Rowling, because she knows what X is and what Y is and what difference it makes. One may add to their ranks LeakyCon, one of the larger Potter-themed conventions, which is starting up again after a three-year panicdemic interruption. Today its organizers published a statement declaring that “the values this community holds close are staunchly opposed to the fear and hatred that J.K. Rowling has been spreading about members of the trans and non-binary communities in recent years”. For good measure, it added an “Event Mission” statement making it clear that, in the name of diversity and inclusion, it will purge all wrongthink from its ranks.
The Dementors smile.
