I like the sentiment wrt to Slytherin but this passage just makes me want to rage, partly because Harry named his kid after Snape, the man who was a Death Eater and only turned "good" because he wanted to bang Lily and couldn't if she was a corpse, but also because he said that Snape was probably the bravest man he knew. Really? Fucking hell, Snape had literally nothing to lose in the end because he'd made his life a hellhole without friends or happiness by being a colossal dick to everyone. You know who I think was infinitely braver? Like, everyone else on the good side... because I think it takes way more bravery to put your life on the line when you've got everything to lose.
Not to mention, 99% of the time Snape wasn't even around Voldemort, he was at Hogwarts with Dumbledore where he spent most of his time bullying kids, so... his job wasn't even that dangerous?
