The best way to enjoy something that may benefit a problematic person is to simply acquire it in a way that doesn't benefit them. Perhaps whilst on board a ship with a nice barrel of grog.
You're not wrong, but even if you pirate the show and tell people about it, they might watch and buy it. I don't believe HP is something worth throwing anyone's beliefs away.
True, if you decide to partake of something like that and then converse about it with others, it is your duty as a traveler of the high seas to then provide them with an "ethically sourced" copy.
So pirate the show and tell people it was terrible?
Honestly in my friend group I would rather explain in great detail my masterbation habits then tell them I watched HP. But then again I disliked the franchise before it was cool, I watched most of the first movie and it just felt like they were telling people "hey suck up all the abuse and be meek and one day you will be cool"
