Rowling's best villain is by no accident also the most realistic. The frumpy female bureaucrat on a power trip. The woman behind the desk with no strength of her own, but can be as smug as she wants because she has the apparatus of the state behind her. Masterstroke really.

as a kid this is the Harry Potter movie that really resonated with me because for a young boy your entire life is just dealing with this exact woman forever

I still respect film snobs a thousand times more than “gamers” because if The Godfather got remade starring Robert Downey Jr and all greenscreen CGI backgrounds, you would not be seeing nearly as much of “well the original is pretty dated, it’s not perfect!”

the idea that "people are just regurgitating the talking points of a successful video essay" instead of people merely agreeing with the thesis of a youtuber's argument and echoing those points is a much bigger toxin to fanbase discourse IMO

Oh you get your political takes from books?
That's cute, i get all my political takes from fat libertarian AI Light Yagami on TikTok
my favourite reply to this post is easily people calling me pretentious despite the fact that they only call video games "art" to try to imbue their hobby with a sense of importance and not even being able to back up their beliefs with good arguments
really hard to take the "video games are art" crowd seriously when all of them seem to have the idea that "art" is just "whatever is made by a human being" and will do nothing to defend this terrible position except get overly angry and hurl out insults like a retarded child

>first time ever getting a fact about fascism right
>gets a community note
fascism is when you nationalise private companies
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Yes. Fascist economics was corporatist, and viewed private businesses as organs of the state. Private enterprise was permitted so long as it followed the directives of the state. They nationalised and privatised on political whims.

Seeing Dugin, Curtis Yarvin, and now Nick Land's unfiltered thoughts on here daily just makes it impossible to ever take any of them seriously as intellectuals. Catturd tier.
