So there's nuance in everything but the plot?
Theres nothing grounded about magic Hitler. Hitler himself and the rise of nazi German had more nuance other than they were all just _pure evvviiiillll _. Works of fiction that have these black and white struggles between the knight in shining armor and the devil incarnate who wants to destroy the world lack depth. It's easy to make yourself the good guys in Harry Potter when all you have to do is not be the devil. It's like the old school Disney formula of pretty white and charming is good. Ugly, vaguely ethnic, and awkward is bad.
I'm not going out in cloaks and masks killing minorities so I can't be the bad guy. Making it harder for them to vote is no big deal. The death eaters go around killing unwarranted. There's no way they're pro-life like me. Clearly they'd love abortions! The Trans community is trying to corrupt and covert our kids just like voldemort! It's literally that easy
Looks like you feel stronger about this than I do, buddy. I'm not close enough to being a fan to reply to all that :D Yeah, I guess abortion is a moral grey area...I don't remember if that was in the book, but it would certainly have added some depth to it.
