Bearing in mind the Snape of the time the novels are set in is a veritable picture of mental health compared with the teen Snape, who was quite clearly an emotionally abused child both at home and at Hogwarts, as well as suffering PTSD from almost being eaten by a ravening wolf, and forced almost daily to go through a parade of bullying, so we can imagine just exactly how incredibly fucked up the younger Snape was. The amazing thing is not that he thought he loved someone who by rights his ideology should prevent him doing, but that he was able to get through a single day without snapping and going full-on postal on all those around him.

Oh fuck this.

Sadly, lots of kids go through really similar shit all the fucking time (well, not the werewolf bit...), and don't "go postal".

Him joining a genocidal group is actually a fucking terrible and extreme reaction to whatever the fuck was going on in his head.

the thing is tho, the fact that he was fucked up still does not justify him being a skinhead. plenty of nazis and fascists had fucked-up childhoods; often that's why they become fascists, because it offers a refuge, it offers security. that doesn't make being a skinhead okay, though.
