On Harry Potter and the Incredibly Conservative Aristocratic Children's Club

Lordy, you are missing SO many things about the book (or glossing over them in order to make the argument). It's sort of necessary to the fiction that not everybody can be a wizard, so yes, technically only certain people are 'chosen'; but the point of fighting Voldemort that Muggles shouldn't be subjugated by wizards.

And Hermione is the only smart, kickass woman? What about Luna? Professor McGonagall? Tonks? Bellatrix? None of this is tokenism at all.

I would be much more interested in this if the author wasn't making shit up to fit a general "Rowling-is-evil" idea.
