Is it any surprise liberals commonly associate with children's literature? They never grew up and still act like children. Then again when you grow up watching the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises who can blame them? Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

I read Harry Potter as a kid and frankly I couldn't give a fuck about LGBT people if it wasn't unchristian af and against 2000 years of white civilisation.

Plus I seriously believe that divergent sexuality is a unconscious choice that can be corrected. I mean the Romans must have known something when they assumed that everybody was naturally bisexual. They still hated fags though.

Read both Potter and Tolkien as a child. Tolkien is horrid literature for children, whereas Harry Potter are childrens books. In the field of comparative literature in Scandinavia Rowling has 0% respect and is not taken serious as anything else than a childrens book author, whereas Tolkien is very much respect for both his fiction and theorectical essays about philology and comparative literature.

i never really read harry potter although i am of that generation. half of the first book didn't catch my interest. i was a weird kid though. read a lot of these accounts of ww2 battles published in the 50's that my school library had. then i read a lot of cyberpunk shit in highschool. bowden might have been onto something about pulp fascism. i can't think of any media i consumed that told me to negotiate with terrorists.

pretty much. she added this whole thing with wand "ownership" and how disarming someone actually makes you the owner of the wand, which goes against events in previous books. there's fanfiction with better endings than that shit.

>>131543400
If anything, Harry Potter made me realize that useless people (Muggles) are holding us back as a society.

Well the research is true. It's not clear to what degree it's correlation vs. causation since empathetic people tend to be more likely to read, but reading does appear to promote abstract, multi-layered thinking with regards to things (intelligence) and people (empathy).

Boromir is often named as people's favourite character as he is the most human (quite literally) of the fellowship.

Boromir was a hero who did everything he could to keep his people's spirits up while being humanity's bulwark against the orcs. This hero then embarked on a lengthy, incredibly dangerous journey away from the front for the sake of attending the council in Rivendell. This journey was in fact so dangerous that Tolkien himself said it could've been told as an epic in and of itself. After successfully hazarding the perilous trip, Boromir finally sits in the council, where he is constantly mocked and derided by the very faggots his people are throwing their lives away to shield. He is given no reason, only empty platitudes and mysterious nonsense. But still, he soldiers on, protects this """fellowship""", and eventually gives his life for its sake.

I hate knife ear faggots and that fucker Aragorn so god damn much.

Boromir was a great example of the failure of man and could be used as a great analogy for alt-light/progressivism.

Boromir is a a great man of his own measure but is corrupted by the allure of more power and usinf the tools ofnthe enemy thus bexominf a tool of the enemy. Tories and Republicans are this on a grand scale. They sacrificed their integrity and people in order to win at politixs in the short term.

Labour and Democrats are even worse, like Denethor. He sees an issue but draws the wrong conclusion and allows the enemy to shape his perception and understanding and thus sacrifice their entire nations to their modern cult of now.

They talk about the failure od the Numenoreans who fled to ME beinf rhat they cared more about their dead ancestors and what they were instead of being doxused on being great themselves and having children to carry on. Great analogy for how we idolise the 'Greatest Generation' and gave up on going forward.

I'm starting to think that people just fall to the left or right based on how lazy they are.

It's easy being left wing. Just say something 'nice' like 'feed the world bro' and you won't be challenged. Whereas a rightwinger always has to go on the defensive with logic and facts, like 'you can't just feed the world with aid as it causes other problems such as X'.

This is reflected in the schism between Harry Potter and LOTR. Harry Potter literally waves a wand and problems go away. He's also 'special' due to his birth. Whereas LOTR is just one big struggle and the ring bearer even fails at the last minute, then departs Middle Earth because of the pain of the stabbing and the weight of the ring on him.

Also look at professions. Stockbrokers are rightwing mostly because they have to take risks, whereas safe space jobs like social care are full of leftists.

Leftists are lazy and this is reflected in their film preferences and jobs

>Years of data suggest that reading fiction builds empathy

Wow who would have thought, reading make believe stories about made up societies getting along make you believe that all societies get along and everyone is the same.

Meanwhile those that read non fiction truth(i.e. Most International headlines) tend to believe that some people are degenerate and some societies are incompatible and shouldn't be intermingled. Who'd a thought?
