What I see: Manson Family Vibes
Just an observation….
#Severus snape has more in common with Manson Cult survivor Diana Lake than he does any SS officer but hall not ready for that conversation#btw I am NOT saying that they are exactly the same#it’s just that the nazi comparison is getting super old and it was inaccurate to start with#all I’m saying is that if you’re going to make real life comparisons it should be accurate#seriously#also this is not a shitpost#those poor families#the Longbottoms have some in common with Sharon Tates case namely the babe#Neville almost died#also#this is NOT minimizing anything the Manson family did they were real life murderers and the death eaters are of course fictional#Severus was groomed by a cult at a young age#read any books on the Manson family and you will see clear similarities in how Charles Manson and Voldemort groomed followers to join him#severus was only 15 when he was being recruited and Diana Lake the youngest Manson family member was only 14 when she joined “The Family#severus snape#this isn’t defense or not?#just an observation I made from someone who has studied cases of cults a lot#snape

They have more in common with the Manson family than they do with Nazis.
Ya know, the Death Eater storyline could have been a great exploration into the processes of radicalisation and how and why different people are drawn into cults or cult like mentalities. Instead we got the one dimensional, lazy storytelling of “Death Eaters are nazis”. As if there’s only ever been one group of villains who thought themselves superior due to their bloodline. The author should take a closer look at her own country’s aristocracy. A golden opportunity of storytelling, social exploration and character analysis was missed here because of overdone plot devices.
