>J.K. Rowling famously tweeted out that "Voldemort was nowhere near as bad" as Donald Trump. It now appears Rowling’s fans are primed to agree. A new study reveals that people who have read the Harry Potter books are more likely to dislike Trump.
>The reason, according to study author Diana Mutz, a professor of political science at the University of Pennsylvania, is that the novels’ major themes — the value of tolerance, opposition to violence, and the dangers of authoritarianism — resonate with readers. And Harry Potter fans might recognize some Voldemort qualities in Trump: just like Voldemort wants to eradicate half-bloods and muggles, so Trump wants to deport undocumented immigrants and ban Muslims.
Of course Harry Potter fans can't separate literature from reality.

Shocking

I didn't realize deporting illegal immigrantis the same as mass genocide.

>The novels' major themes - the value of tolerance, opposition to violence, and the dangers of authoritarianism.
Yeah, I really picked that up from the bank heist, triwizard doping, guerilla war (Dumbledore's fucking ARMY), destruction of government and school property, identity theft (& liable), rape (love potion), plagiarism (an autobiographic touch), downright cheating (success potion) larceny, voyeurism and arson, all under the auspices of killing Vitilligo Joe. Zane Grey is healthier for kids.

Brexit is literally Voldemort.
Blake Ortiz
Gregory Hanson. It's from Harry Potter
Jason Cooper
I'm a young people who likes Trump.

>Harry Potter should be read because it aligns with my political ideology >All of my findings directly correlate with Harry Potter and not the very liberal-minded generation and attitudes that were gaining popularity around the time Harry Potter was published.
Noah Jones
Harry Potter should not be read.
James Long
Is this a shitty seventh grade paper for ants?
Samuel Bennett
This. They should read Mein Kampf instead
Better to redpill them young
Justin Long
>I don't understand what greentexting means
Logan White
There are probably better books for redpilling than Mein Kampf, though I'm not much of a redpill guy so I wouldn't know them
Camden Jenkins
Britannia Unchained. More Calpol than red pill, but still good reading.
Alexander Cook
You're also an idiot.
Ayden Scott
That's one thing, it goes against my taste as well, but calling him "worse" Voldermort? Harry Potter is a book full of common morality, for her to make a statement like that (and for people to disagree) shows what a farce political discussion really is.
Owen Roberts
stop fucking around what's that things name. it's important.

that sentence is fine, dolt
Jayden Hill
It's Dobby (Dobbie?), a character from Harry Potter. If I remember correctly, he's a household slave who belongs to Draco Malfoy's dad.
Michael Scott
That isn't a surprise. Harry Potter stunted the intellectual and creative growth of my generation.
