Terry Pratchett is a wonderful author for the younger children/cousins/comrades/anyone with a heart to read. Don’t let ya kids read pro-slave, transphobic authors!
The guy who looks like Emperor Palpatine with no nose? I kinda just assumed he was evil for the sake of evil. Look at the dude, black cloaks, all pale and stuff. He’s trying to seem evil.
The nose was a congenital deformity he was born with or something. Like not even “he did the evil magic so his nose fell off” just “people with deformities are inherently evil”.
Wow. That’s bad and weird.
I don’t remember that at all. He was born as a normal dude, and was a normal looking dude up until he died. It isn’t until after he was reborn from some kind of evil ritual that he gets the no-nose form which I’m not even 100% certain is described in the books, it might just be a movie thing.
But no, Tom Riddle, the guy who went on to become Mr. Evil No-nose, had a normal nose as far as I know(s).
I’m embarrassed to know this, but it’s only his first reborn form from the first book that has no nose. He exists as a face stretched across the back of professed quirrels bald head hence the flat nose. There’s no mention of his later forms having this feature in the books, it’s just a movie thing
Harry Potter is a fed
so of course I support Comrade Voldemort in his struggle against British Magocratic imperialism
(I have never read the books)In our terms Voldemort is more like an ethno-nationalist taking advantage of a paralyzed, dying neoliberal structure and how it’s already inherently racist. The wizards themselves live in a highly alienated liberal gerontocracy where nothing happens.
The closest thing to leftism is one book where Hermione tries to quite literally organize against actual slavery of elves and the other wizards treat her like a loudmouthed annoyance. Then they tell her elves actually enjoy being enslaved.
House elves enjoy being enslaved, which is why Hermione is annoying and wrong and should shut up.
Harry you’ve only met two house elves and they were both highly resentful of being enslaved-
Yeah whatever nerd watch me catch the golden snitch with my trustfund broomstick lol does crosschops in midair
I think the Shaun video summed it up best when he said something like “the series frequently threatens to become interesting.”
It’s just always implying that it could have interesting ideas and complex themes and then it just doesn’t.
Remember when I was like “It’s weird that a lot of movies have villains that had trauma that ‘turned them evil’ as a trope”
HMMMMMMM
Also liberals read another book I beg you. Reality is not a children’s novel.

The thing is, this isn’t even true for Voldemort. By the text of the story, he was just Intrinsically Evil™ and even as a child he was always the one hurting bullying other people and not the one being bullied. So this is one of the worst possible choices of villains they could have used.
Isn’t there actually like no circumstances to Voldemort being evil though? Like isn’t it just oh this guy is the descendant of Salazar slytherin so obviously he wants to genocide half bloods?
In both hurry potten and the liberal worldview, ideology is genetically heritable
Obvious Harry Potter
aside, the metaphor doesn’t even make sense. Voldemort doesn’t go after Potter because he blames him for anything, he goes after him because of a prophecy.because of a prophecy
Sooo pretty much the same reason that the state of Israel exists in the first place?
I am once again asking you to READ ANOTHER FUCKING BOOK
When the founder of Hamas had to do a heckin Hamas he was all “I wish I didnt have to see such horror,” his mentor was like
“So do I,” said Al-Gandalfi, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
Doing anything for you?
You see Hamas is like the Empire and Israel is the Resistance and
Laughable thing to say when the whole crux of israel is basically “historical Jewish suffering mean israel gets to go ape-shit and that you’re an antisemite if you think that’s wrong.”
Also if you try to justify actual atrocities through the lens of children’s media, you should be wailed on with a fly-swatter until you have welts, I’m so fucking tired of that shit.
We should start a crowdfund to send libs en masse to Palestine so they can talk to Palestinians about how they’re acting like Slytherins when they really should be more like Griffindors. They probably just never thought about it that way. And then Palestine can be partitioned through the 4-state solution, with each state named after a Hogwarts house and only people of respective characteristics may live in a particular state. Israelis will be in Griffindor automatically and Palestinians will be either in Slytherin if they don’t condemn Hamas or maybe they can make it to Ravenclaw if they do condemn Hamas, but if they condemn Hamas and are top physical specimens then they can maybe go to Griffindor. Then all the houses, except Slytherin, led by Hunter Biden as Harry Potter will team up for one final battle against Lord Voldemort Putin in Russia and win. Ukraine is the other school with the blondes. This might be the way to peacefully settle the conflicts in the Middle-east and the world.
Jesus, this is how libs think.
We should start a crowdfund to send libs en masse to Palestine
Haven’t the Palestinians suffered enough already?
Isn’trael already did this. Look how well it’s going.
Circumstances did not create Lord Voldemort! JK Rowling created Lord Voldemort! How the fuck do these people avoid dying of embarrassment mentioning fucking children’s books in serious political discussions???
