      Yes The whole thing is that when Voldemort talks about wanting to rule over Muggles as a tyrant... they're already halfway there Wizards already think they have the right to nonconsensually VIOLATE YOUR MIND and WIPE YOUR MEMORIES so you won't know they exist

      It's made super clear in-universe that no one in the Ministry gives a shit about Muggles or even knows anything about Muggles Whenever the Aurors investigate "Dark wizards" they're investigating crimes *against other wizards*

      All of the Muggle-related crimes Arthur Weasley deals with are explicitly much less important (remanded to the Dept of Enforcement but not actual Aurors) and all involve breaking the Statute of Secrecy, not harming Muggles in general

      In the universe as she presents it she shows the Death Eaters going around torturing Muggles for sport as, well, a bad thing to do, but also something they generally get away with How could they not? How could a Muggle possibly call the cops on them or take them to court

      She makes a black comedy joke out of this with the cute little twist with the Prime Minister The Ministry of Magic goes through the legal niceties of pretending they interact Muggle government on equal terms But of course they don't really

      It really does end up being a struggle between a "liberal" elite who preach benign neglect and an openly fascist elite who preach unrestrained sadism But they're all fucking dyes-in-the-wool elitists

      The genuinely democratic, populist point of view only comes up at all to get mocked and abused, making Hermione into an out-of-touch Soapbox Sadie with SPEW Muggle populists show up as cartoon fundie villains in Fantastic Beasts (the witch hunters)

      It's a really striking far-right turn in the middle of that plot. The House Elves really are being abused, and we see it constantly. Dobby is terrified constantly. Then suddenly, it just stops being anyone's problem and Hermione is a joke.

      I mean, why the fuck did she bring it up at all just to shoot it down? How was that supposed to work? If we want to figure out when she got the brain weasels, that's probably it.

      In hindsight she is absolutely an obnoxious centrist who sincerely thinks "these activists have their hearts in the right place but they don't get how the world works and their ideas will never succeed in real life"

          People who had the big picture galaxy brain take that the SPEW arc was satirizing or critiquing or problematizing that kind of POV are wrong She is not nearly that deep, and she is not deconstructing or subverting a goddamn thing She expresses that POV because she believes it

          Yeah, it's just...why would you create this specific situation to make that point? Hermione is far too right, in-universe, for the centrist baloney to make sense.

          To me it just reads as standard conservative beliefs about superiority but doesn't like that same schema against women.
