She's a pathetic millionaire elitist lecturing the rest of us on her social justice warrior agenda. I've hated her since day 1, and her stupid books and movies too. Clearly I was right.

I never saw any Chinese or other Asians in her movies. She's a F racist herself !
Have you seen any Harry Potter films at all? FFS!

Why does anyone object to this? Unless they are racist?
What does it matter what her race is? It's never specifically referred to in the books.

No, that's not a prime example of literary tokenism at all.

She's right!
Why does 2000anyone object to this? Unless they are racist?
What does it matter what her race is? It's never specifically referred to in the books.
It's a brand new cast after all. They're all different actors. If you object to them all being recast, that's a different thing.
I would object if she was now a boy, or now lazy, or very naughty as this would be inconsistent with the books.
But if she now wears glasses? Or had different hair? Or is a different height to the films? Or has a different skin colour?
None of these things should matter to you unless:
a) you object to everyone being recast - in which case, why not just say that?
b) you are racist
Give me three good reasons which show otherwise
Anyone?

Er, she did in the 4th and 5th installments of Harry Potter, her name was Cho Chang. She was Harry's love interest.

Have you actually seen the play or are you offended just because?

How patronising. How dare Rowling call me a racist? I'm black, and I'm a critic of black Germione.

Because, ya know, Hermione was black in the first 8 movies.
