literally no one is pretending that or proposing to pretend that, what they are saying is diversity was not as much a topic in the public consciousness in 1997 as it is in 2018 and that is why an author back then might not have paid as much or any attention to if their book is diverse as they might have with the current awareness

it's not hard to grasp when you're not being deliberately obtuse

Well... ayrt may be referring to a secret thread just yesterday where actually, someone was arguing Hogwarts was representative of the UK's population in the 90s:

Which is a silly argument, of course.

I think that's totally reasonable! I think that was also a flaw of the times - not one that JKR was uniquely responsible for, but it's still not a good thing about the books - and it makes it hard to generally give credit for JKR as being a champion of diversity, which arguably some people have tried to present her as.
