Growing up, I was one of the Baptist kids who wasn't allowed to read Harry Potter.

I love that the atheist crossdressers are now the ones who are afraid of falling under J.K. Rowling's spell. 😂

That's a real article from the taxpayer-funded Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

The subheading is hilarious too:

Swift backlash from 2SLGBTQ+ community over series author J.K. Rowling

"2SLGBTQ+"

The list of intersectional identities can NEVER be long enough!

On social media, some people called for a Tim Hortons boycott, many expressed dismay, and others gave the company a new nickname: 'TERF-Hortons,' a reference to an ideology that rejects the existence of transgender identities.

'I'm an employee of Tim Hortons. I'm also transgender. You are actively hurting many of your employees including myself,' one person wrote on Threads.

Said another: 'Choosing donuts over the safety of trans people is certainly a choice. What a terrible f---ing thing to do.'

Another person wrote they were 'heartbroken,' adding: 'This really hurt more than most. How can one person's hateful voice carry this far?'

The outlet also cited "author and human rights advocate Rowan Jetté Knox." 😂

(All of these comments were on Threads, because duh!)

To counter the CBC, I did five seconds of research and found numerous comments in support of Tim Hortons promotion.

Given the ongoing and sustained sales of Harry Potter merchandise across the globe, I'd wager about 98% of the public agrees with these takes:

Remind me who the "un-Canadian" ones are again??

Anyway, the bigger scandal here is what has happened to Tim Hortons since Canada imported a gazillion Indians.

Here in the States, their locations are quite clean, but apparently they've become a bit like Knockturn Alley in their home country:

Sad!

😭😭😭
