Googling around, I’ve seen a lot of users and journos claiming they are a jewish stereotype. I struggled to even compare them to what HP did. And as a partially jew, I’m really jealous of qualities these bigots paint and the thinking process Quark put to work. He’s probably my favorite character of the whole franchise.
It’s not like JK is some paragon of moral character either. She’s already a prolific transphobic bigot, are people really shocked that she is also racist and an anti-semite?
