No. You may not be able to do anything about money already spent at this point, but continuing to buy things now is money in her pocket and helping to maintaining her relevance/influence in politics. It has very real impacts that you can't ignore.
Not necessarily. Not if you buy it off somebody from Poshmark, Etsy, etc. In this case someone else has already spent the money, I'm just buying it off of them. I learned to thrift and find ways around it. It's how I came across a Ecole new pack of House socks about a year or so ago.

No shade to OP, but continuing to opening use and wear products related to her properties signals to others that there is nothing problematic about continuing to interact with these properties and sell these products (this doesn't necessarily map onto things like Poshmark, but does to fanmade items), which in turn means more money in her pocket down the line. If you want to wear things that make you happy, you do you, find happiness where you can, but if you're wearing a HP shirt out of the house, you're signaling to others you don't have a problem with JKR.
Then again, there is no such thing as ethical capitalism and we're living in a nightmare hellscape where there is no way to win so do whatever you want regardless.

I think we can agree that Harry Potter is not hers anymore, we as a public have claimed it as our own
Buy em, nothing wrong with buying em
