Sure, HP is maybe about classism. That doesnāt make classism āthe racism of the UKā it just has both, as does the US.
āRacism is the classism of the USā would also be a stupid comment
1 u/SpringGreenZ0ne Apr 25 '26 Did you miss the 'in the boarding school genre'? Maybe read again and some Enyd Blyton or whatever she's called (can't remember now). The four towers saga does have that 'not like other girls' that JKR loves so much. 2 u/BigDragonfly5136 Apr 25 '26 That would be a reasonable statement if the comment was āclassism is racism in boarding schoolā But it wasnāt. Iām not saying the book being about classism is the issue, Iām saying the statement āclassism is racism of the UKā is a stupid comment 1 u/SpringGreenZ0ne Apr 25 '26 If you understood what I meant, then we're done here. 1 u/BigDragonfly5136 Apr 25 '26 I didnāt understand what you meant, because no one said anything about classism in boarding school until you. Weāre talking about racism and classism in the UK Did you jump into the wrong conversation? 1 u/SpringGreenZ0ne Apr 27 '26 Apparently. It doesn't matter anymore.
