I haven't been making commentary on Snape's actions outside of his actions towards Harry and I'd most likely agree with you if I were.

Still, people keep saying that they don't think Snape would have treated Harry better. I'm just not too quick to make that call. I can't help feeling like raising a child from infancy, the child of your late sister, should make a person act better, not worse. Seriously, it's not like Harry was 10 and an awful kid when he came to the Durseleys. He was a baby and they still managed to treat him like they did. Something about the fact that Harry was an infant just makes me less inclined to cut them some slack.

...Snape was a-okay with having Voldemort kill Harry. At the very fucking least, Petunia didn't try to have a baby killed. Just sayin.

Also, it's not like Harry was a raging dick when Snape met him. Harry didn't deserve Snape's treatment any more than he deserved the Dursley's. From the very second that Snape was in a position of power over Harry, he used that to torment him.

What a saint!

This is very true. Although I'm sure someone could argue that Petunia wouldn't have taken Harry in if Dumbledore was just like "Harry's an orphan. Will you take care of him?"

I'm not saying he's a saint. I guess I'm just weighing it differently. Like, if you're gonna engage in a debate about which abuse was worse, being awful to someone who looks like someone who used to torment you weighs less heavily than being awful to your infant nephew.

They're both really awful people. It's just hard to argue for the lesser of two evils without looking like you're trying to sanctify one and damn the other. And it seems like I'm really failing at it.

This is very true. Although I'm sure someone could argue that Petunia wouldn't have taken Harry in if Dumbledore was just like "Harry's an orphan. Will you take care of him?"

And the argument could be made that Snape wouldn't have done jack shit for Harry if Dumbledore hadn't have been like, "Probably you could maybe help an infant child not die to make up to his dead mom for the fact that you killed her."

And I'm weighing a guy who was just fine with having a child straight up murdered, as long as he could have Lily (however he thought that was going to go down...), then proceeded to be an abusive fuck towards this innocent kid the very second that he gets a chance, on a different level than a woman who is abusive towards a child because of her own issues.

Because, at the very, ABSOLUTE least, Petunia didn't try to have a baby killed.

Just sayin.
