Oh man, yes. The Weasleys are so idolized in the fandom. I like the kids other than the twins, but parents are their own version of awful.

I don’t know if I agree with this interpretation of Arthur, but I’m not against it either. However, I definitely dislike the twins, I always have. Characters like them who are so beloved for being ~hilarious chaotic prankster twins~ have always rubbed me the wrong way. They’re awful shits to me, and I hate the Hitachiin twins from Ouran High School Host Club for the same reasons.

And I used to like Molly well enough, but I saw how awful she could be, and never felt the same way again.

Pranks are only funny when the person being pranked likes it. Back and forth prank wars are cool. But pranking people who don't like being pranked? That's just mean and makes you a bad person.

I agree completely!

That was Dumbledore's blindspot with Snape and James, he saw it as a prank war between two rivals and treated it pretty much as such. He had a blind spot where he couldn't quite bring himself to see it as two students who truly loathed each other to the point of going to war against the other with no holds barred, not until it was too late.

The Weasly twins were actual bullies and yet they were treated like adorable pranksters, that shit was so weird.

Nah, that is exactly Arthur. Don't get me wrong; he is a nice guy and knows what he wants out of his life and his job, and he got it, but it is something dumb and silly in his world (and out of universe too) which would hold his family back if they are seeking out conventional employment. Notice his older kids both have non-conventional employments, and the twins are also non-conventionally employed prior to V's return. His behavior doesn't affect them, it would have affected Ron too if he'd had a normal childhood and wanted to progress to auror without the whole dark lord returns thing happening, but not Ginny. It certainly affected Percy, who even without the whole dark lord factor would probably have had to distance himself from his family to progress or be forced to also see non conventional employment.

That’s a good point!
