This clip went viral fast, even before she shared it. But Rowling\u2019s comment <strong>perfectly captured the internet\u2019s general feelings<\/strong> towards his actions. People showered her page in likes, retweets, and replies. Her second super successful post was about Harry Potter. But before you take a look, we have to issue a <strong>spoiler warning<\/strong> for anyone who hasn\u2019t read or watched the series (if such a thing is still possible).<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">OK, here it is.
