JK Rowling literally wrote a slave caste that loves being in servitude. Even putting aside the transphobia of her most recent past, the Harry Potter books are not leftist friendly.

The concept of a species of intelligent creature that is naturally inclined to servitude and loves it is actually a very interesting concept. There's nothing wrong with exploring such a concept in a fictional setting.

Not that they were really explored in the Harry Potter books, but I could certainly see such an exploration being fascinating, since it is wrong to enslave a people and it is wrong to prevent them from doing what makes them happy and fulfilled...which happens to be serving.
