      And this elitist fuck-you-got-mine attitude isn't something that *died down* in JKR's worldview over time, it *increased* The Fantastic Beasts films turn the idea of witch trials and witch hunting from a joke into Serious Business

      This reminds me - have you read the intro to the fantastic beasts book? It’s full of thinly veiled eugenics stuff and if I had the energy I’d write about it but I can’t bring myself to re-read it.

      “We casually sorted living creatures according to whether or not they could speak English or walk on two legs and determined their worth and rights based on that. We literally excluded Merfolk from our community because we couldn’t be bothered to learn their language”.

      Also a Being being “‘any creature that has sufficient intelligence to understand the laws of the magical community and to bear part of the responsibility in shaping those laws’.” Sounds like ableism to me...

      A screenshot of the Kindle app open on the Fantastic Beasts book by JK Rowing. The following text is highlighted: 


at the time of writing there is an office for Werewolf Support Services at the Being Division whereas the Werewolf Registry and Werewolf Capture Unit fall under the Beast Division. Several highly intelligent creatures are classified as ‘beasts’ because they are incapable of overcoming their own brutal natures.

      Yeah see this kind of thing is all over the books and at the time I thought it was just very dark satire about a hidebound bigoted society but now I wonder how much she saw it as satire herself Her POV in the end still seems to be that all of it is necessary

      Remus Lupin's life is hell due to bigotry but then hey it turns out Fenrir Greyback is real and is just as bad as all the stories say So wow I guess it's really tragic for Lupin but you can't blame the parents for wanting to protect their kids Sucks but that's how it's gotta be

      I hear this exact sentiment from TERFs so much "I'm sure there are many wonderful people who are transsexual and I empathize greatly with their struggle But when it comes to children, safeguarding is paramount" Fucking A

      JK Rowling ends up defending the Wizard version of Section 28 even as she gives us a tragic heartbreaking story of someone's life being ruined by it So sorry, chap, had to be done Parents have to put their children first, you know how it is, there's real monsters out there

          That implies that Tonks and Lupin dying and thus their kid becoming an orphan was because they were degenerates, him a werewolf and her marrying one. And it was just "safer" that way. Not anything sort of narrative relation to Harry being an orphan.

          Ah but Tonks “saved” Lupin from the degeneracy which made it even more tragic 🙃

          It wasn't up for a vote, but aye. She had the chance to make a direct attack on Section 28 in Order of the Phoenix, which came out the year it was repealed down south. It's a perfect rationale for Dumbledore's distancing himself from Harry--tabloid innuendo to discredit both...

          The fierce progressive move would be to have Dumbledore fall on his sword when needs must by painting the DA as a PoC/Gay-Straight Alliance group for kids of diverse ethnicities & sexualities, which would've been a direct contravention of Section 28, in force when it's set.
