#it’s also funny because Harry potters portrayal of women is abysmal

[junglejim4322]

Outside of JKR’s transphobia, do you think people exaggerate Harry Potter’s offensive aspects?

It’s on par with every other major franchise of its ilk like there are aspects of it that are cartoonishly racist like the goblin bank and “Cho Chang” but if you compare it to lord of the rings having an entire race of evil subhuman black ogres made in hell who are the only people in the entire series who aren’t white or Star Wars jabba the hut sexy slave leia rape subplot (let alone the whole incest plot lmao) it’s really not that surprising. The whole standard to be relatively PC is very recent so essentially everything pre late 2010s-2020s is gonna have shit in it that makes you wonder if nazis were were on set (they probably were)
