Put it better than I did. They love to claim ownership over popular things. Oh actually, its always been this way. Did you not know that Final Fantasy X-2 is some lesbian/wlw love story where 3 queer(fuck me they have beaten this word too into the ground) girls on a fun trip around the world?? Seen this on twitter multiple times.

Or you know, its a game where 2 cousins, and a new friend, all treasure hunters go on a trip around the world looking for treasure and also to find out if one girls boyfriend is still alive.

Just watch, if that HP show is a hit, they wiill eventually try and claim ownership over it again.

Disregard Canon, Acquire Representation: Samus Aran is a Transgirl!

this article reads like sarcasm, but isn't, and I think is the source of the sentiment that led to this, later that year:

https://www.themarysue.com/metroids-samus-aran-transgender-woman/

Metroid’s Samus Aran is a Transgender Woman. Deal With It.

again, trying to make people mad and "break their toys," but it didn't work

you know what's somewhat interesting about this 2015 article co-authored by Brianna Wu?

No matter what fans say, the intent of the creator is the only opinion that really matters. When J.K. Rowling announced that Dumbledore from Harry Potter was gay, that was the end of the discussion. Some fans couldn’t accept or understand it, but her public statement was the only source that mattered. It’s an authorial acknowledgement that this character, like any, can realistically be queer or transgender without it having to define them.

we must respect rowling's authorial intent
