Yeah, i was wondering if anyone else found that Magic is Might statue as striking as I did. When I read it there was a horrible recollection of all those Nazi designed monuments and buildings. And slogans like 'undesirables' and Pamphlets on how a pureblood is a happy rose with muggleborns as a vicious thorn. The propaganda was prevailent throughout. Also in line with what happened in WWII, Hogwarts changed its subjects in order to twist the minds of students. How muggleborns stole their powers, how to perform dark magic. The Nazi party had book burnings, upheaval in the schools where lessons were concerned with Jews, Aryan race and of course Mr Hitler himself.
Hagrid held a party to support Harry and it was one of the worst things he could have done given the situation, I mean I know its inspiring but just not practical. I agree with LunaticLady in that I would find the situation awful but I'm not brave. I might have taken a similar course of action that Draco did. Not something to be proud about but realistically, honestly thats more than likely what I would have done.
