On the other hand, Rawlings uses her success as a public validation for her bigotry. So it is fair to opt out of supporting her artistry.

Secondly, bigotry is layered in her books.

  • family is better than being free of abuse
  • slavery is funny, also they like it
  • goblins are a terrible caricature of Jewish people
  • general acceptance of eugenics in daily society

Beta only means buggy piece of shit to people who use software and then mostly gamers. In industries where prototypes can kill people a "beta" product is one that is safe for the intended use. For example, if you invented a new way to do internal scans of people, before you can even test it on humans you would have done extensive testing on animals to know what works, what doesn't, and what gives them cancer, and have done the modelling to have a strong understanding on if it is safe with humans.

Nobody would tolerate a scanner that gave people cancer, oops

Growing up in Australia I was required to learn a second language in years 7 and 8. All I can remember is how to say "and now cumshot" thanks to my friend and I finding his dad's porn collection.
