Description

After throwing JK Rowling under the Knight Bus multiple times for her views, it appears Emma Watson has changed her tune about the Harry Potter author that is responsible for her career. JK's response was thoughtful and savage. "Emma has so little experience of real life she's ignorant of how ignorant she is." #hollywood #harrypotter Edited by @QTRBlackGarrett

That's a funny way to treat someone that you "love" and "treasure". Zero accountability

What she said about Emma is reflective of basically all of hollywood- they dont live in the real world, they dont understand real consequences- so they are able to strategically take any side that is the most popular at the moment.

And there you go. Just because you play a genius character, doesn’t mean you are one in real life.
