Pictured: Millennials talking about the silly wizard power fantasy like it’s Shakespeare. Harry Potter truly is to Generation Y as Star Wars was to Generation X. It reminds them of a “better time” when they could remain ignorant of all the horrible things happening in the world (paid for by their tax money).
I think this is the issue. HP is slop and it is ok to enjoy slop sometimes, but these people who have never read anything else in their lives act like it is the highest of high art and there would be no point reading anything else because they’ve already read the best.
