Hogwarts School Of Cancellation

[Blind Gossip] When someone with whom you’ve worked is publicly criticized, it’s become practically mandatory for everyone to pile on in agreement.

Some people do this because they have genuinely harbored ill will towards the person for a long time, and they feel safer airing their grievance as part of a group take down.

Others do it because they feel it is their social obligation to weigh on what they consider to be the correct side of the issue.

For example, when renowned author J.K. Rowling shared her opinions about gender identity, the lead actors from the Harry Potter franchise – Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint – were all quick to condemn her.

This was followed by authors quitting her literary agency in protest.

We think that JK Rowling’s take down was accompanied by the phrase “Wingardium Cancelosa”!

If you didn’t understand that, we can’t help you, you little Muggle.

Anyway, this handsome actor  – who definitely did not attend The Hogwarts School of Cancellation – is taking a different approach.

An actress with whom he worked for many years was recently the subject of cancel culture.

Everyone seemed to pile on, each contributing their own personal horror story of working with the actress.

Our actor had worked closely with the actress for many years on a popular TV series. If anyone had a story or two to share about a lack of harmony on the set involving the actress, it would be him!

However, when asked to weigh in… he simply brushed past the inquiry.

Is it because his experience with her was happy and wonderful? Or is it because he is such a nice guy that he can’t say anything negative about anyone?

Neither.

When he worked with the actress, he knew that she was [Showrunner’s] favorite and that [Actress] and [Showrunner] were close friends in real life. He has worked with [Showrunner] on two series now, and he would like to work with him again in the future. He was not about to bite the hand that feeds him by criticizing [Showrunner’s] close friend.

So, it might have been diplomacy driving our actor. Or it might have been self-preservation.

Whatever the reason, perhaps our actor could open up his own school and teach some of those skills to younger actors?

    No, I don’t think she deserves to be cancelled. Women who are born as a male sexed person are not the same as women who are born as female sexed persons and that is truth. Sex and gender are not the same thing. I am so sad for the female sexed athletes who are having to compete with the male sexed females gendered athletes. It’s absolutely not fair. Also, just because you are gendered female does not make you privy to all that is born as female sex.

    JK Rowling will be just fine regardless if she’s cancelled or not. But I do believe she’s wrong. My friend’s older sister was born without a uterus and has never had a menstrual cycle in her life. She’s the most stereotypical girly girl you’d come across. But according to JK, she wouldn’t be considered a woman. I’m sure her husband, family & friends…

    At first i thought it was Jonathan Groff but first he seems to really like Michelle, second his fame as nice guy seems to be real, and third he doesn’t depend on Murphy to get work at all.

    So it seems it’s Darren Criss who basically work with Murphy (and i think he’ll regret the day he said he won’t play gay characters anymore).

    Michele seems to be a nightmare to work with but i found her cancellation very coward to be honest

  4. BosLos says

    Yeah, the reason that it might be Matthew and not Darren is because of this: “He has worked with [Showrunner] on two series now…”
    I would say Darren’s worked on 3 of Ryan’s series where Matthew has worked on 2.

    Matthew seems to be a decent guy and maintains discretion when it comes to telling tales. Although I wouldn’t say he’s close friends with Lea, he has chosen to not get in the mix with all that’s come to light about her. The reason Jonathan hasn’t is because he’s actual…

    Actor: Darren Criss
    Actress: Lea Michelle
    Showrunner: Ryan Murphy
    Hint: “horror story” because Ryan is the showrunner for American Horror Story and the main motif of Harry Potter ties into the fact that Darren Criss played Harry Potter in the Starkid Musical.

    Clues: Darren was in that Harry Potter musical, other than that idk.

    “Did JK Rowling deserve to be cancelled? Why or why not?” Yes, someone with her platform trying to erase the existence and struggle of several groups of oppressed people should not be something to tolerate during these times. Also what is it about her twitter bio saying she is sometimes known as “Robert Galbraith”?

    The school clues and Lea was dragged recently

    No one deserves to be cancelled in a society with free speech. People need to grow up and accept that people have opinions different than their own. Dialogue changes minds. Cancel culture changes no minds and make the ones who cancel look like people who need therapy. It’s like people who give their significant others the silent treatment. It does no good, changes nothing, and usually leads to a…

  42. pharmchick says

    Not sure of the actor but I dont think she deserved to be cancelled for her comment. It wasnt anti- trans Or whatever it was being misconstrued to be. People born as a female menstruate. Women. It is what it is and the labels should be women and trans women. Not cis woman and trans women.

    Actor: Matthew Morrison Actress: Lea Michelle
    Havent followed RKR’s story too closely. I’m fine addressing trans by whatever gender they feel is truest. Its complex. Biologically theyre different. I read there’s a part of the brain thought to make us feel male or female thats switched. There are also people with XXX chromosome resulting in various differences. But these are anomalies.

    Optional: Nope. Everyone is allowed to have their own opinions. Feel free to disagree and debate those opinions respectfully. But canceling people over their thoughts is a little too 1984 for my liking.

    He played it off really well in that interview by saying that talking about her was drawing attention away from the bigger issue and more important current events.
