    I’m not sure transphobia or homophobia were in the actual books, but the others you mentioned were. Rowling herself obv exhibits all of those things, but I try to think of OP as a 9 year old just discovering a love of reading, who doesn’t know about the racist tones. That’s my story at least, and I’ve been happier just letting people enjoy things.
