imagine you are a marginalised person, say trans or a POC, and you are presented with two people, mind you you don't know anything about these two people except they are both white dudes, one of them is a hardcore harry potter fan while the other is an expert on plato. Who would you rather trust? As it is often the case with marginalised folks this could be a matter of life and death, who out of the two white dudes is least likely to be a murderous bigot and why?

This little thought experiment really helps one challenge the fundamental assumptions of the (eurocentric) literature snob. If classical literature doesn't make you a better person and might even make you a worse one, then what is even the point?

inclusiveness is about basic human decency. it is understandable why marginalised folks might not want to read plato joyce or dante and might feel deeply humilliated and even physically unsafe if someone claims the 'western canon' holds a monopoly on truth and wisdom that automatically overrides their lived experiences and their traditions of resistance. I think challenging canons is morally necessary for us in the humanities, it is meant to be transgressive, privileged people are not used to feeling uncomfortable and they have to get used to feeling uncomfortable. Remember the discomfort you feel at when your cultural hegemony is challenged is not even one millionth of the discomfort, fear and humilliation a trans person feels during every second of their waking existence.

Sorry, went to sleep. Basically I think anarchy is the ideal condition, but one humanity has to be primed and developed for. While humans are developing towards that end, the pre-post-state humans will necessarily form governments (and not necessarily as in we *need* a state, but that it simply is what happens). Of those potential governments, a monarchy is the best.
So, I say "quasi-monarchist" to indicate that in some contexts I support monarchy, and "anarchist" to indicate my idealized ideology, if you want to call it that

The discomfort, fear and humiliation you describe is the result of suffering from the mental illness of gender dysphoria. To try to project it onto the surrounding society is silly. It reflects a basic discomfort and insecurity that "transsexuals" feel about their life style for which they blame the more than 99% of the population who are not like them, and instead insist that the 99%
alter all of society so as to adapt to their mental illness.
In the long run it will not work, either the society will reject this approach or it will collapse. History is quite clear on this sort of thing.

But I disagree on the destroying of purity. Part of the plot is that Volde wants to expose the wizarding world and rule over the lesser people, while the good guy gang want to essentially continue to Wakanda themselves and be in their special group which is hidden and only the other specials can come join them (which we could draw analogies, replacing magical manifestation with Aryan will manifestation). When taking this approach, it becomes the good Aryans who want to live by themselves, vs the bad Aryans who want to use their divine greatness to rule non Aryans.

Well can change no mudblkoods vs mudbloods to "no mudaryans vs mudaryans", in that the pure blooded aryans are rejecting the spark of aryaness in other non aryans (wizard being a 'race' unto itself). So it is the acceptence of the capability of the races aryness even though the rest of the races are inferior.....Which as you pointed out, is destroying purity.....yet how can it be destroying purity when all that is happening is that new evolved aryaness is being added to the aryan peoples?

So the underlying message is to accept those of ability, and reject those who are not, yet that message is lost/not absorbed.

I see. So you are talking about a type of spiritual/transcendental race as opposed to a material? If so, I tend to agree. The issue is that this book obviously is not about pushing ability but more so blind inclusion at the expense of unity. Two of the most powerful wizards are harry and vole and both are pure blooded. Does this mean halfbreeds can't be capable? Of course not. But imagine that instead of fighting essentially a civil war, both worked together. Yes, voldemort should have been willing to accept capable mudbloods and rejected weak purebloods, but to fight a war over this and lose life over inclusion vs exclusion is a waste of life in my opinion. It is a shit situation, one that we currently find ourselves in, but I honestly would rather voldemort have won and purity at the potential expense of capability be the prevailing ideology.

The races are all material in that they are physical objects. The idea behind the aryan is that they contain the spark of creative ability that drives mankind and creates culture and society. We replace 'the spark of creative ability' with 'the spark of magical ability' to get to the wizard race.

I disagree that there is an agenda of pushing blind inclusion. That would of meant that those of non aryan/wizard ability would of also been included in the aryan/wizarding world, which was obviously not the case. Instead it was about rejecting the aryan/wizardness of those not descended from aryans/wizards. Working together would of been better, but that would of negated the original concept of rejecting purity, since to be aryan/wizard in it's entirety is to be pure because you have the needed qualities. Also, weak purebloods and non purebloods show a lacking of the needed aryness/wizardness, thus they would of degenerated to squibs, second generation, then just muggles, thus being unworthy of being in the special club. Yet the good guys side would of accepted those of lesser ability........so your point stands in that it is, rejected of purity. Yet if voldemort had won, then he would of had those of weak purebloods following him, which would of created weak bloodlines, and corrupt other bloodlines they breed with, thus reducing the aryness/wizardness ability, hence the purity concept becomes self destructive.

Ok, well I immediately disagree in that there are no "rights" in this regard, only things people can inflict on others without repercussions. Anyhow, any alteration of a potentially consenting person should wait until they can consent, which is why rape is illegal (because the person cannot or does not consent to being raped).

Circumcision is immoral and should be an international crime against humanity. I mention circumcision because it's an unjustifiable tradition like denying equal dignity and rights to marginalized people.
