Love potion wears off though, and I assume it's not too difficult to put two and two together.

The connoisseur's choice for rape is obviously polyjuice or Imperius, since the latter tends to fuck about with memories.

As a teen, Dumbledore was for enslaving muggles, pureblood purity and (possibly) killed his sister while fighting his brother.

He also propped up an ignorant orphan boy as his only shield against wizard Hitler without informing or even arming said orphan boy.

Harry is a mediocre wizard and a bad friend.
>>

The only reason he could take it was because Dumbledore sent him to an abusive family the first 11 years before letting him go into danger several times causing him to lose his father figure and be mentally unstable for some time before hardening up.
>>
>>70851981
I thought he's the prophesied chosen one with his special scar.
>>
>>70852010
He barely even tried to become a good wizard, never had any really hunger to learn or to excel in magical prowess. He was entirely average in most respects.

Were he just a normal student, he would have been quiet content to coast along on his mediocrity and would have put more effort into flying a broom than anything else.

>>70852356
I know this point is overstated, but seriously, Harry was such a little shit. You find out at 11 years old that magic is real and you don't go out of your way to read all about that shit? History of Magic sounds fucking kickass, I'd have been asking for extra homework and shit.

Once. And accomplished nothing.

Despite knowing about Horcruxes for years, Dumbledore found only one. He didn't even directly tell Harry about them, just let him work it out through skimming the memories of other people. Knowing he was dying, he sent a mildly retarded 17 year old Harry on a mission to find and destroy Wizard hitler's soul without even telling him what to look for or telling him he was dying or anything he learned during that last vital year.
>>
>>70852568
He also literally knew that one of the friends he set Harry up with was a shit who would wig out. Good stuff.
>>
>>70852589
Don't forget Dumbledore also pretty much left to blind chance whether the Ministry would actually pass on his willed items to them or not.

They could have just as easily said nah and not handed them over.

The fact that they had a Whomping Willow on school grounds without so much as a fence around it or a warning sign, not to mention the hordes of giant spiders in the adjacent forest, the poltergeist, the basalisk in the basement, and a number of other death traps in the building really goes to show that wizards really don't care at all about the safety of their children.

Have you ever considered just how deadly Quidditch is? For an official school sport, it seems incredibly easy to die. Most of the game takes place about 20 meters off the ground, and full contact tackling is encouraged, with no safety gear. The kids aren't even strapped to their brooms.

If somebody falls off and lands on their head, that's it. They're fucking dead.
>>
>>70852868
The parents have already been to Hogwarts, so they know you'd have to be dumb as fuck to get killed, and anything less severe than that is fine because they can literally regrow broken bones anyway

Modern parents are just cotton wool cunts who have no fucking idea how to be parents and think stopping their child ever getting injured or going outside is good parenting. It isn't.

Sometimes, true courage is needed to tell the truth when Harry let Hermione know that the hairband she was wearing didn't match her eyes... 75 points to Gryffindor

I think she might have made the stories darker than she originally planned because of the additional weight of expectation, but she did it so ineptly (no sex, Dobby and Lupin are meant to register as major character deaths etc) and while continuing to use exactly the same plot devices so I doubt it really changed much in practice.

The guy was basicially the biggest honor student, adored by all his professors, leading his own gang of underlings and getting every good position he needed, while he went arround directing a giant snake killing off people he didnt like and sucking dark art knowledge out of his teachers.

Then he turned retard, took the most evil name possible, changed his appearance to look more evil and started an open war with the government

I remember when the first movie came out, I was like 7 at that time, I had a conversation with a friend on how we don't know if magic isn't real since we didn't turn 11 yet and there was still a chance we'd get our letter from Hogwarts.

Man, real life just sucks. There is a reason people have such high hopes for VR. If we ever achieve holo-deck levels of simulation you can be part of any universe you want. Whether it's Harry Potter, LotR or whatever weird shit you're into. And there isn't even a risk of dying.

I've always thought this was weird. Rowling treats it like a normal school but really kids would be so fucking keen to learn. They'd spend all their spare time practicing new spells or learning how to turn into animals or something. Especially the muggleborns, who there's no way they could see magic as dreary and ordinary. Everybody would be like Hermione, but with more of a focus on practical magics probably.

so letting voldemort kill him killed the part of the soul that harry was protecting, and then he used the resurrection stone which dumbledore conveniently gave him in the snitch to wake up and kill voldemort when he was defenceless

at least that's what i think happened, i read all the books when i was younger and i still get lost at what rowling was trying to do at parts

the series is good, the author is fucking shite who got lucky and won't let anyone forget it
>>
Also there is an actual spell just for cutting shit the one in HBP is just specifically for cutting up fagboys and he probably didn't invent it just rediscovered it reading some old book about dark arts.
>>
>>70854524
Why would you ever create a spell for anything?
>you just gotta, okay? Spells are important and shit
>>
>>70854617
I dunno. I'm too tired to think honestly. It does sound stupid that an appliance cutting spell doesn't exist. I saw more that spell as an attack cutting spell which is pointless since you have a instant kill spell.
>I'm going to cut you rather than insta-kill you
>>
>>70854288
it's not a spell, it's more of a technique which he just got in the habit of doing after fucking himself up 6 times before
>>
>>70854663
>>70854645
>>
>>70854645
yeah, the logic of the spells was pretty arbitrary.
>>
>>70854663
The idea of one instant kill spell is also really stupid. Why not just develop a spell that boils someones brain, or implodes their heart, or drives their ribcage into their lungs? These guys are supposed to be evil after all.

The answer is that it's a kids series and you aren't supposed to apply critical thinking though.
>>
>>70852513
>oh and btw Hitler was actually a puppet propped up by proto Voldemort

How is this shit not fun?

>>70854645
I'm pretty sure he invented it but yeah it's a specific form of cutting or whatever.

The problem was that she never shows a separation of practical and theoretical.

I can get being bored with theory, but there is literally no excuse for not being interested in forcing reality to go fuck itself.
Frustrated if you can't do it, maybe, but bored?
>>
>>70854642
Yeah but, killing Harry actually made him win.
So leafman was right.
>>
>>70852629
I don't know why they wouldn't, especially the book and the deluminator, which was his property. If he wants to give away his belongings in a will, they have to oblige. The snitch they might have not given, because it was school property. And the sword he knew they would not give to harry, so he found a way around it.

What kind of defensive spells did they even have other than fucking expelliarmus? Someone should have made some real cool shit like a spell that makes a kind of gravitational well for magic that sucks in all the spells being cast, then the user can throw that shit like a bomb.

Polyjuice + the imperiatus curse + the obliviate charm = virtually undetectable rape. There are even spells to remove any signs of rape, like tergeo.

I still don't get the point of the veil.
Was it ever explained?
Also I remember the writing was extremely vague as well, something like "Sirius passed beyond the veil", which a 10 year old me took as him just falling behind it
>>
>>70855033
Harry and Dumbledores friends were all criminals and rebels so I don't think they cared much, and they don't get punished because they are the good guys.

I was honestly expecting him to come back somehow or some shit.

>>70855029
Jesus.

Rowling was trying to be poetic and shit. He didn't get brutally smashed to death, he passed on, beyond the veil which for some reason isn't a metaphor but is a literal veil just out in the middle of a room for no reason.

What a huge disappointment that final battle was.
They had magic, they could do literally anything, but by the end of the series all they did was shoot lasers.
I expected wizard battles to include all kinds of crazy shit, but instead we got fucking stormtrooper shootouts.

There was a nice duel between Snape and Mcgonagall where she shoots daggers or some shit at him and then the midget makes the suit of armour grab him or something but it never made it to the movie I think.

>>70854766
Actually what killed Voldy was that nobody was expecting Draco to disarm Dumbledore, and then Harry to disarm Draco, meaning the elder wand would be bound to him.

Dumbledore was either a god of prophecy or the biggest savant ever

Did he do anything wrong?
I mean sure he did but he was a magical sociopath with even less chance to become a decent human being.

>It was stated that Voldemort was a result of an unwanted childbirth which involved a love potion so in a result of that he was unable to love or even understand that

He didn't just choose to ignore love or positive emotions he was literally incapable of feeling them. The one who is to blame is Dumbledore who taught him magic.

He didn't play it smart. As mentioned earlier, he could have gone the Palpatine route, slimed his way to the top, and become unassailable. He would have been able to push through any policy he wanted.

Instead despite being respected and admired he went down the political insurgent route.

Looking back, I did too. I had to re-read a bunch of sections over and over to get what was happening, which I've never had to do for any other books

His Horcruxes aren't expended every time he dies
>>
>>70855055
I remember as a kid being completely lost during that scene for that very reason, I just didn't understand what Rowling was describing. I think it was her use of the word "dias" (or a word similar to it) which tripped me up though. I didn't know that word.

Losing part of your soul literally makes you a comic book villain incapable of long term planning and good decision making.
>>
>>70855491
But they were in secure locations, not to mention that making it a horcrux already makes it invincible

>>
>>70855309

Makes me think of that scene where he tries to embrace Draco in the last movie. It's like he knows other people do this kind of thing to show affection, but he actually doesn't get it so it just comes off as really pitiful and weird.

I mean Voldemort was legit Dumbledores fault, his first interaction with the magical world was might makes right and the one with the most power can force you to do things. I.E When Dumbledore set his wardrobe of stolen shit on fire to make him return it instead of being, you know, a reasonable adult about it.

>>70855596
The challenger deep is also one of the first locations I'd check for a horcrux if I was a wizard.

Outer space on the other hand sounds like a much better hiding place, if he doesn't need to get the thing back that is, I dont really know how this works. Just send it out there a the speed of magic and by the time people start searching for it it's already past alpha centaurii.
>>
>>70854788
Protego

Good luck checking the entire challenger deep for a small object. Not to mention this is a setting with legitimate sea monsters.

Outer space would work too of course, although eventually its going to go into a sun or something.

>>70855756
To like restore his body and shit I think he does need to actually find one of his horcruxes, so hiding it in impossible to reach locations kinda defeats the purpose of it.
>>
>>70855708
Can't teleport that distance I think
>>
>>70855746
You aren't arguing with me, I agree with you, however please try to understand, that I was just comparing violent madmen who massacre across the middle east to pampered softboys who work in offices.
One is visually quite obviously evil, the other you have to know about them really to get that.
