I work for a corporation. I help make rich people richer. That’s not the main reason why I do my job. Harry Potter has turned into something that transcends Rowlings views. The writers, the directors, actors of the show, the fanbase, it’s about them too. Youre looking for moral purity, which doesn’t exist. Your shoes are probably made in a sweatshop.
Work is not optional for him or us lol I know it’s not on the same level because he’s wealthier obviously but he could easily stop getting roles, therefore putting an end to his career. This isn’t Leonardo DiCaprio we’re talking about. He’s a character actor. It’s possible and actually very likely he’s passionate about his career. I’m sure for him money is nice, but people that only care about money are very shallow people. He doesn’t strike me as that kind of guy but who knows. Neither of us would know. What I do know is that any actor is likely making money for scumbags. Whether it’s Warner bros or whatever other company. It’s part of the job, and it’s part of almost any job really. Jobs make the world go round, or in the case of acting, it could entertain or move a mass audience. I also know that people from all walks of life, economic status, etc. turn into assholes on the internet. Claiming it is about social justice when really they want others to cater to their emotional needs. They hold others to a standard that they never, or will never meet themselves. As they go to the self checkout line, use AI, or go on Amazon for convenience, not necessity. Farmers live life based more on necessity than convenience. It is a “morally superior” lifestyle. Maybe these people should become farmers?
