I'm baffled by the bru-ha-ha over the Hogwarts Legacy boycott. It's not the superficial topics that everyone talks about that confuse me (bigotry, boycotts, etc), and it's not that I dislike the Harry Potter stories (I enjoyed them, though they are far from great literature or even exceptional kids lit) -- what I don't get is that adults think it's worthwhile to repeatedly revisit this fictional world and repeatedly shell out $$ for the privilege. I don't think I can take any of this seriously. The same goes for Star Wars, etc. So much of our 'culture wars' is focused on topics where, win or lose, the culture will remain degenerate. It's really idiotic.
