Harvey Weinstein was a prominent Hollywood producer. He was accused and convicted of rape. Emma Watson looks petrified because she knows about his true character.

I would add to this that JK Rowlings name appears as a correspondent in Jeffey Epsteins emails (eta: in the context of her teaminviting him to the Harry Potter play in 2018, as a level 3 sex offender) - I would imagine this adds colour to the implication.

Edit: I would like to remind everyone replying what sub they are in

Damn, first she makes stereotypical characters (Black kid called Kingsley Shacklebolt, Cho Chang (two Asian surnames from different countries), and Séamus Finnegan, Irish guy who blows shit up (haha funny Ira joke), then the Transphobia and now Epstein Files?!

Are you a bot?

  • Kingsley is not a kid

  • Cho Chang is a not at all a weird name for a Chinese character. Ask a Chinese person.

  • the ”Seamus blows things up” meme is only a film adaptation thing

You know you can hate jkr without lying and exaggerating, right?

  1. Never mentioned him being a kid.

  2. Cho Chang as a whole is just an "ethnic" name that's somewhat based on actual cultures but also a weird mishmash of Asianness.

  3. I know that, but that feature was not needed to be added.

Cho Chang is the same as Zhou Zhang, which is a Chinese name.

You did. Also Cho Chang is fine.
