I never understood all this whinging about J. K. Rowling. I was a big fan of Ender's Game when I was younger, but when Orson Scott Card revealed himself to be an asshole I dropped those books like a bad habit and everyone I knew did the same. There wasn't even really any debate over it. Why are we still wringing our hands about Harry Potter?

It's kind of too late now, though. Even if we somehow convinced every person on earth to never buy another Harry Potter anything ever again. She's already got her bag. That won't go away and she'd continue being a horrible person with the power of wealth.

Elon's wealth, on the other hand, exists almost entirely as a fiction of his businesses' value. He is much more susceptible to being taken down with them.
