The key difference is that McAffrey and Roddenberry are both dead, and see no benefit from you tuning in to Star Trek or reading a Pern book (though I might suggest Eathsea instead). Supporting paramount is probably not great, but i do not know of any direct harm they are doing. Rowling directly benefits from purchasing Potter media, so purchasing supports transphobia.
There is this:
Paramount Is Rolling Back DEI Initiatives to Align With Trump Mandates
...but guess that's been normalized now?
Fortunately, one doesn't necessarily need to purchase any of the media to enjoy it. When an author or publisher changes flags, so can people ๐ดโโ ๏ธ
Oh, for sure, consuming outside the system that fuels that shit is probably the least harmful. And good to know about the Paramount DEI BS.
