Awful how she keeps calling him ‘Coach.’

    I’m going to say here what got me banned from r/politics on Reddit…

    Krysten Sinema is literally Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter.

    Yes, yes that did get me banned. Not kidding.

      I got banned from r/politics for wishing Rupert Murdoch got a nasty staph infection in an article which said he was in the hospital.

      I’d say it again too. Fuck Rupert Murdoch. I hope he gets a nasty staph infection.

      And I can understand why when you abuse the word “literally” like that. What you mean is that she’s figuratively Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter. /s

      Good. I say this as a former mega HP fan: Read. Another. BOOK.

        Just because JK is a piece of shit doesn’t mean someone can’t enjoy HP. Further, it definitely doesn’t mean that comparing Sinema to Umbrage isn’t a great comparison.

            Referencing a character in a wildly popular, successful, and entertaining young adult book series doesn’t mean someone hasn’t moved on. I haven’t read any of the books since the last one came out and have read many other books that imo are far better. It’s still a great reference.

            If you don’t like it, don’t read it. No need to be a gatekeeping twat about out it though. Just keep scroll and ‘move on’.
