if you observe really closely, and i mean really closely, you'll notice that the marauders fandom is everything wrong with the current world and its dominating political climate.
and i mean it. a fandom knitted out of canonically classist characters who were bullies, instead of the teenagers who sacrificed everything they shouldn't have had to for the sake of rebellion and resistance. the teenagers we've read about over the course of seven books. their losses, their grief, their struggles, their deteriorating mental health. and somehow, a huge chunk of hp readers decided that was not appealing enough for them to deal with. they would rather escape to the blank canvas of the 70s and make up happy fanon content surrounding a bunch of carefree, privileged upper class kids. they are not intellectually driven enough to face the harsher canon.
we often tend to make up excuses for people's inexcusable deeds if they're pretty and rich right ? we see that in today's headlines, pop culture and politics alike, all the time. well, the fandom's approach towards james potter and sirius black should hold up a mirror for you as to what exactly keeps things like the met gala and celebrity worship culture relevant in today's world amidst numerous human rights crises.
snape's bullying is primarily excused and defended for the mere fact that he was not good looking and belonged from a poorer, marginalized class of the wizarding society. if they claim it was because he joined an extremist group, there is a high chance its coming from barty crouch jr stan or a regulus black stan. so its basically disguised hypocrisy.
fetishization of the queer community in the name of inclusiveness, perpetrated largely by the wolfstar fandom, is glaring signal that people who claim to be allies often end up repeating the same cycles queer people work tirelessly to break.
treating women characters as wombs for their gay ships' children, using sapphic narratives as nothing more than mere tools to get rid of said women characters and not meaningful themes, defending sexual humiliation, having this odd sense of moral superiority because they have brainwashed themselves into believing that they're a "seperate" fandom, even though they piggyback off of canon characters and the story itself, no ocs, no original work.
they are everything they claim to be fighting against. they will destroy your safe space while claiming they are the safest spaces in the fandom, they will destroy you emotionally for liking or engaging with canon content when they are doing the exact same thing, they will claim to be morally justified and even different while having zero moral grounds themselves. they are blatantly classist, sexist, and disrespectful to the queer community all while claiming to be the opposite.
the marauders fandom represents everything that are recurring topics we notice in the current political turmoil globally. you would agree with me if you have had the intellectual capacity to pick up real books written by actual established authors and not just spend your free time reading fanfics written by naive teenagers with underdeveloped frontal lobes.
