So am I the only one who thinks that picture looks like anti-semitic propaganda? Like "Watch out for the jew, they're coming for our schoolgirls"

[(Anonymous)]

Yes. You are.

[(Anonymous)]

...yes. Pretty sure you're the only one.

I don't think much anti-semitic propaganda was sex-related, it was mostly about jews coming for your money and shit.

HOWEVER, I believe germans actually used to gives tons of "demoralizing" leaflets to Americans and British during WWI (or WWII? Can't remember) to convince them that while they were fighting, their wives were fucking their bosses and neighbors every night and they'd better go AWOL right now and go back to her before she gets pregnant or leaves you, and IIRC some of those had a lot of anti-semitism in them.

OP: YOU ARE SO RIGHT.

Which kind of makes me wonder about how much JKR was influenced (subconsciously!!) by antisemitic villain traditions. Canonical descriptions of Snape always struck me as othered, including his "sallow" skin tone -- he's not just pale, but yellow-ish. And historically, antisemitic propaganda also turns Jews into a scapegoat for pretty much everything that befell society, from the Black Death to economic turmoil. And Snape's pretty much the number one scapegoat of the series....

Well, no. Harry's the number one scapegoat in the series. You're only a scapegoat if you are an innocent who's blamed for problems unfairly or who is sacrificed for others' sins. Snape worked hard for his sins. They're his. He earned them. Stop trying to give them away.
