Harry's whole life and the plot.
No, you see that because it's what you want to see. She's nuts but not pro slavery, and I think thats obvious to most readers.
Not so much a persecution fetish, more preemptively compiling the type of stuff someone with your worldview might say.
I just try to see the nuance in things rather than making everything black and white. Unfortunately we live in a world of extremes now and this "problematic" shit is one side of it that ticks me off. The "muh libtards" gang makes just as little sense.
End of the day, im probably just using you to vent, so thanks for listening.
Well that's kinda my point though. If you look at it trying to find things to be offended about, you'll find them.
They are non-human creatures, hermione essentially tries to force her morals on them despite their entire being wanting this lifestyle.
This isn't a case of poor elves being forced into slavery, in the context of this world, this is what they are and what they want.
It's not saying slavery is a good thing, or a bad thing, but forcing beings to do things to fit your worldview is more immoral than letting it be.
Granted, slavery is not quite the best method to make that point. But if you cannot accept a reality within a story without casting some real world agenda on it, you're gonna have a bad time.
I do find it interesting that creatures being themselves is more problematic than all of the murder, torture, abuse and pain the characters experience.
But yeah, i can see why at first sight, someone might side with hermione if they don't think about it in the context of the story world.
I'm also not saying this is Rowling's perspective, id rather avoid her as a person. But i do like the series, despite the many story inconsistencies, which frankly are a much larger problem with enjoying the stories than some wrongthink.
I think many of the best stories make you see the world differently. I've read many books by authors with horrible worldviews, but because i enjoy getting many perspectives on the world, as long as the story gives something to think about, im happy with it.
In conclusion: im a white male slave apologist and i should be cancelled. oh and i probably support trump too. i must be really dumb and brainwashed if i enjoy a book about wizards with a character named "Cho Chang" or whatever else is in your videos.
Sure, but in this context it makes little difference. If your filter is broad enough to encompass names like Dobby and Winky, you're not gonna find a lot.
The whole concept of a house elf is to make a point about how slavery is bad in the first place.
Either i'm missing something or this is a prime example of how people end up living in a bubble where only their own ideology bounces around inside of it
Yeah its too vague, but when it comes to consumable products, they're generally made so you want more of it than is good for you. Hence the discomfort with not consuming the thing
And theres the flaw, something every country can agree on. Thats not happening unfortunately.
Even if we could force all countries to do a certain thing, theres varying levels of corruptions everywhere that would prevent something like that in the first place.
The closest we've come so far is probably oil sanctions on russia.
What, do you think they just sit around smoking cigars and laughing evilly all day?
Its not that they dont do anything good, their evik acts just offset it.
I cannot drag my tabs out properly. Its been the dealbreaker for many years for me, they dont fix it, but i just deal with it now because google is too evik.
okay, but if you're on windows, why not VS2022 masterrace
