"the Over Romanticization Of Death Eaters Has Made The Harry Potter/marauders Universe Lose Its Charm,"

The deer does not attack...bro just keeps sniffing

Sear thy eyes on mine countenance.

Just to be raw and honest here's a truth about Book Sirius and James , they were rich classist bastards the only reason they are seen as good people is because they are praised by EXTREMELY biased people who are telling an orphaned child about his parents. The book is from Harry's point of view, so as long as he is stating an opinion and not a visual fact , it is a biased opinion.

James Potter was Draco Malfoy of the marauders era , he was rich , he was perverted , he treated people lower than him like shit and yes he treated Lily like shit too. And no, the only people who said James matured up were the two most biased best friends of James Potter telling an orphan child about his father. The only difference between Draco and James is that the Potters were fighting alongside Dumbledore and raised a spoiled bastard brat . The Malfoy were fighting alongside Voldemort and raised a spoiled bastard brat.

Sirius black was canonically not a purist only because he hated his parents. He was raised in an abusive household where he was always jealous of his younger brother. There is no proof that Regulas ever did anything against him, and the only thing he ever stated was that Regulas was considered a much better son.

Sirius Black is repulsive and always took his anger out on random people hexing and torturing them.

No, there is no canon mention of a death eaters Slytherin gang that the marauders used to fight against only Sirius' very much biased words. The people Sirius does refer to are Lucius, Avery , Mulciber, and Snape mainly . Lucius is 5 years older than Snape and even though the age group of Avery and the rest are not mentioned, it is only canon that Lily mentions them as Slytherins, there is no canon gang possible given their age groups and even if there was, Snape has got to be the young boy they were grooming.

There is no mention of Snape ever attacking the marauders until after James molested him, and that is also a biased opinion about Snape fighting back to James and Sirius.

He may have been a very loyal friend to James, but literally, everyone, including Remus, was ready to believe he betrayed the Potters. Do you see the kind of reputation he had for everyone ?

Also, Sirius black tried to murder Snape using Remus as a murder weapon, and there's not a single person that ever mentions the fact that Sirius wanted the person he always tormented to be mauled by a werewolf and he chose his own friend to be the one comiting the murder.

if i had a nickel for every time Viktor died i would have 2 nickels... WHICH IS WAY MORE THAN I'D LIKE PLEASE STOP KILLING HIM

Random 10:30 pm thought: In ‘All That Glitters’ Mike seduces Gwen and then takes advantage of her attraction to him to feed off her, acting against her bodily autonomy, an act that can and does turn people into his thralls. This is generally treated as akin to sexual assault, he’s completely irredeemable, most horrible villain on the show (not an exaggeration, I’ve seen him referred to as worse than Vilgax and Servantis)

In ‘In Charm’s Way’ Charmcaster seduces Kevin and then takes advantage of his attraction to her to seize control over his mind and body, acting against his bodily autonomy, an act that can and does literally enslave him to her will. This is not generally treated as akin to sexual assault, she’s easily the most redeemable character on the show (even moreso than Kevin himself), our own personal Woobie Destroyer of Worlds

Why?

You know what I find interesting? Both James and Sev stopped doing bad things for Lily, but while Sev stopped despite never being able to actually have Lily (first because she still loved James and then because she was literally dead), James does it because he gets to have her. Another difference is that Sev shows that while at first his reason was Lily he starts to do more than the bare minimum of leaving the death eaters and becomes a spy risking his life every day. He also starts to identify with the values of the good side, like telling P. N.Black to not call Hermione a mudblood. On the other hand, we have James who can't even commit fully to not bullying because he still bullies Sev behind Lily's back, knowing she will leave him if she finds out. He only stops because they leave school and Sev is therefore out of reach. And despite Lily actually marrying him and having a child with him he still doesn't grow up for her and still acts like a self-centred idiot like when he sneaks out while they are in hiding (risking his and his wife's as well and most importantly his son's life which they are trying to protect). 

So to conclude, on the one hand we have a guy who doesn't change despite “getting the girl” and on the other hand we have a guy who changes despite never being able to “get the girl” or even save her life (I know Sev didn't completely change and still has a lot of flaws, but most of them are due to trauma, and he needed help to change which he never got. So maybe stop hating on him and start hating on the system he was stuck in and denyed him the help he needed).

Gotta love the implication from the marauders fans - if you're an ugly, white, poor kid - you deserve the many crimes committed against you. But if you are an ugly, black, poor kid - wait, that will make my faves look bad. My faves are saints because their victim is ugly and not part of a minority.

They're like Lily, laughing at someone who's being abused because the abusers are ~handsome~

Well, at the end of the day, these are people who engage in victim blaming, support and excuse bullying, and minimize sexual offenses—so it’s not like we can expect much from them in terms of moral consistency or ethical coherence. The real issue isn’t that they think it’s acceptable to abuse a white child; it’s that they know they can justify it because no one will call them out the way they would if the child were a POC. The latter is visually more striking, carries far more controversial implications, and forces an uncomfortable conversation they don’t want to have.

The problem with these people is that they refuse to confront their own cognitive dissonance and the narrative of victim-blaming and perpetrator-exoneration that they’ve upheld for so long. They know that the moment the severity of the bullying Severus endured is laid out in a way that can’t be denied—because it will be too visually explicit to ignore—they won’t have anywhere to hide. And honestly? I find that wonderful in one way, but on the other hand, it’s pretty sad that this isn’t about genuine political awareness for them but rather a purely materialistic concern over their own image within the fandom.
