You still haven't addressed the fact that the game sends money to a rabid TERF of a billionaire who directly lobbies to harm trans people to the British government.

I literally did address that.

And she’s probably making very very little off of HL as a whole. Warner Brothers owns the majority of the copyrights around the HL universe, unless it’s theater or books, JK Rowling’s website even says so.

You really dont see how its an issue that a billionaire is making 'a little' off of a franchise that then is funneled into TERF shit? Or that the brand's image is associated with TERF shit because of her relentless campaigning, an attempt at making TERF shit more mainstream? A thing that is working in Britain as rights are curtailed?

And I doubt she sold the rights to WB for 'a little'. In fact the most recent sale of the rights was for something like 3.8 billion USD
