Cruel

There's no way you people would think she's racist if she wasn't transphobic.

She was very accepting of Hermione being cast as a black girl. Seamus was just used as comedic relief in the movies, much moreso than in the books, with his magical mistakes causing explosions being primarily when he was a kid. He was loyal and high achieving character.

Meanwhile, the blonde character who uses the offense slur "mudblood" is the childhood villain for most the books. Yet she is racist for this somehow too, I imagine.

I agree.

But being attracted to someone is distinct from having a sexual relationship with them. I can be attracted to a married person, a mentally ill or incompetent person, or even a minor. It's not necessarily wrong unless I engage with them.

My point is that there is a difference which is important. People are acting like the two are somehow the same.

People do the same with rape, acting like all rape is equally bad. When clearly having sex with your drunk wife is not as bad as abducting and violently restraining a stranger to rape them.

All rape is bad, and that includes all sex with minors. But there are certainly still distinctions to be made.

So you think the legal punishment for an adult having sex with a 5 year old should be the equivalent to them having sex with a 15 year old? There's no difference?

Luckily, the laws in all states disagree with you.

Making up quotes now?

Being sexually attracted to 17 year old females makes someone a reprehensible creep?

Most straight men probably fit into that.

Why? It's different both legally and clinically. Almost all states increase the severity of the crime for younger victims, usually choosing the delineating age around 12 or 13.

You don't need to teach history. Just name a single thing Musk would have to gain from giving control of his capital to a fascism government? He's already on track to become a trillionaire without them. He has everything to lose, and I see nothing to gain.

Now, a capitalist who is not so successful, could potentially gain a lot from fascist corporatism, so it's worth the risks of losing it.

Fascism is capitalist only insofar as they give some deference to the "private" owner, but there is no proper respect for private property. Otherwise, the government controls all "private property" for national purposes. China is a fascist contemporary, marketing itself as communism (like Nazis did with socialism). But in reality, private property is being seized for the nation, not for the working class.

Musk in no way want to give over his companies to any government.

Are you joking? Not even close.
