    as a jew, ever since I was like 8 years old and obsessed over the Harry Potter books I found a lot of interesting analogs to the jews and the nazis. the "mudblood" truly feels like it can represent the jewish people, while "pure bloods" are the Aryan race hitler saw as superior, who is obviously represented by voldemort. what a brilliantly creative satire. the Israeli comedians showing SNL antisemites how real humor works👌

    I thought the Jewish character in Harry Potter was the goblin that looks like a Nazi caricature of a Jewish person and runs a bank.

    I thought the white supremacist faction was the segregated wizard school where all the kids with special blood get to go.
