This just dawned on me not long ago. Like how does someone write the character of Lucius Malfoy and then go "what if I used my tremendous wealth and influence to lobby ceaselessly against people who transitioned into my category from the more dominant one, and who already tend to be discriminated against violently as a result? I could maybe use a theatrical rhetoric of victimization to distract from my very shady alliances."
Like wtf lady you know that makes you the bad guy you literally wrote a series of books explaining it to children.
Oddly enough the guy that plays Malfoy is the only one that's actually still on her side in the public sphere. It's not necessary consequential but I think it's interesting.
The guy who played Voldemort actually. Makes me wonder if he's agreeing with her as a troll.
