Still I Rise

I’m not sure what on earth has happened to the literacy standards of the Potter fandom in the last 15 years, because I distinctly remember the universally horrified reactions to the Snape’s Worst Memory chapter when book 5 first came out. Teenage James and Sirius were written as borderline sociopathic in their capacity for cruelty, and everyone back then instantly understood what JKR meant to convey. Somewhere along the line the perception of that dynamic has mutated into a ‘equal rivalry’ or ‘James standing up to a racist’. She couldn’t have made it any clearer with Harry’s anger when Sirius and Remus are feebly justifying themselves. It’s not a coincidental that she chose to place this incident *after* the werewolf prank (there had been a lot of speculation before book 7 came out that it was the werewolf incident that made James get his act together…but no), described them as predator and prey, and put Draco’s words in James’s mouth. I’m baffled as to why so many people don’t get it now. If anything it reads even worse in 2024, because what James did is now classified as sexual assault in the UK.

Look, this girl is reading the books for the first time on TikTok and got that part and she was devastated at finding out about the bullying.

And the comments are full of "omg noooo read 'All The Young Dudes'.

The truth is, no one likes being challenged anymore. They can't reconcile the idea that James did bad things but was also a great friend so they write cowardly fanfiction that pretends that never happened. And they know the truth, it's why they all to try retroactively cancel out the bullying because of what they know happened in Snape's life 20 years later.

They know it's bad.

They just can't handle it. Because it makes them THINK and be forced to come up with their own conclusions rather than it be spoon fed.

Like my gawd, Harry thought of DUDLEY DURSELY. HIS FIRST BULLY! NOT DRACO! DUDLEY!

also can we talk about the fact that i've seen so many people say they dislike james because he instigated the inicent that ultimately ended snape and lily's friendship.

because this is a conclusion that snape very well could have come to.

but he didn't.

additionally, i've seen people say that lily dating and marrying her old friend's bully was a huge betrayal.

and yet again, this is never a conclusion snape comes to either.

food for thought. he's not as nearsighted as everyone seems to think.

i think a lot of marauders fans have a hard time grasping the fact that they had no righteous reason for to bully snape. they didn't do it because he was a wannabe death eater and called muggleborns mudbloods. because they could have easily listed everyone of those reasons. but they never did. the best sirius could muster was that he knew dark spells aged 11 and was greasy and weird. and james did it simply because he existed and that's out of his own mouth, not to mention because he was jealous of how close snape was with lily. that's literally it.

there was no ethical, honourable reason for it. they weren't doing it for 'the greater good'.

sorry.
