    There’s the Gringotts bankers being a grotesque antisemitic stereotype straight out of Nazi propaganda

    If it’s like in the movies this sound like a stretch, pretty much every fantasy has something like this

    there’s the fact that only one character in the entire wizarding world is against slavery

    Isn’t dobby being freed from his slavery and help herry one of the main event in the story?

      Unrelated , I read theories she already had serious money connections before the books. But her background was made to look like a common person. But a regular person could not make those, specific to her, book deals early on in her career.

      Additionally it is my opinion there were multiple authors
