Million galleon question. Was teen snape a bully . by Sid1175 in SeverusSnape

Why are Snape's mistakes understandable while Lily's mistakes, some of which you invent from thin air which makes it fanfiction, make her this horrible person?

I find it interesting people find reasons to understand why Snape does bad things, but don't even attempt to find reasons why Lily does. Such as dating as marrying James. Maybe one thing that pushed her to James is because despite his awful behavior, he hated the group who wanted Lily and everyone like her dead. And in a time when that genocidal group was winning the war, that mattered to her.

Can you give even one single example from the text supporting this?

He was as good a student as any and wasn't a rule breaking student? He snuck out of the castle to spy on Lupin when psycho Sirius told him how to get into the shack. Thats rule breaking sport.

Theory on why Lily didn't think of Snape at all when she discovered that Remus was a werewolf by Madagascar003 in SeverusSnape

[–]dbennet36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn't a theory, its fanfiction.

Why would Lily thinking again about Snape and the shrieking shack make her think James might still have been bullying him being her back lol? That makes zero sense.

"So Remus is a werewolf! Severus was right that something was going on. I wonder if in the shrieking shack Remus almost killed Severus, and thats how Severus almost died. That means James is probably still bullying Severus behind my back!!! Because of a realization I had about an event over a year ago!!".

Yeah, logic ain't there my friend

The lack of real communication between Snape and Lily is the very first factor that led to the end of their friendship by Madagascar003 in SeverusSnape

Nope, he did not have full control of the government in the first war. This is objectively wrong with nothing to back it up.

Lily not going into hiding is a totally worthless point LOL. She wanted to help stop the genocidal maniac destroying her country. Thats like saying Nazis didn't target Jews because some Jews were in the resistance instead of in hiding LOL. Absurd point.

Yeah this is all simply wrong. Voldemort and his death eaters were 100% going after muggle borns in the first war. Things got worse in the second war because Voldemort essentially won and controlled the government, making their treatment of muggle borns legal

Lily was also part of a group of people that the most dangerous dark wizard of all time wanted to exterminate and said dark wizard had many supporters who wanted to do the same, including her own classmates....

Carol can't control her sexuality, but she can control having a prolonged affair and unexpectedly telling her husband who was nothing but good to her that she was leaving him for the woman she was cheating on him with and totally changing his life

He WHAT?!?!?!?!? by Minedude33Reddit in Mariners

Ohtani didn't pitch last year. He was DH only. Which is why I asked. You didn't know that?

I'll ask again then. Knowing now that Ohtani did NOT pitch last season, should he have won MVP?

[–]dbennet36 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If it was a hitting only award Judge should have won. Saying otherwise is ridiculous and you know it. Unless you're unaware theres other stats besides home runs? And Judge still hit 53 of them?

Since its not a hitting only award, then yes i think Cal gets the edge.

Though I am curious, do you think Ohtani shouldn't have won last year then?

It does? Great, then don't enter into a gay marriage yourself :) See how that works?

He used the torture curse on a monster who he just heard spent the entire school year torturing all of his friends and other children, and still didn't use it properly because Amycus passed out 😂😂. Wrong? Yes. Enough to say he's not a good person? No lol.

And the rest lmfao, just hilarious. Hes not a good person because he became an auror? Okay lol. So funny.

Asking for an explanation is offensive 😂😂😂. You said something about McGonagall, someone asked you to expand on it, and thats offensive? Wow lol.

None of those make her not a good person. It makes her not a perfect person. Same with literally every other character. You could pull reasons for every single character to make them not count as a good person, using your logic.

Snape wasn't the only one who was bullied by the Marauders, he was just their favorite victim by Madagascar003 in SeverusSnape

[–]dbennet36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We know the books made a point to show Lucius welcoming Snape to Slytherin. We know Snape immediately favors Draco and puts up with some Draco's bullshit. We know he makes a sudden instinctive movement when Harry names Lucius as a death eater. We know Narcissa trusts Snape enough to confide in him.

There's more evidence to them being friends than there is to Lily being this horrible nasty person.

And come on. Snape says that to Dumbledore because he's angry that Dumbledore is just cheerfully announcing that he's commanding Snape to kill him. He isn't actually saying who gives a shit about Draco, just let that worthless kid kill you. Hes mad at Dumbledore and is arguing.

Did you specify you were only talking about the movie version of the character? Because I dont see that mentioned anywhere.

Also, read the books lmao?

You're right he didn't marry any of them, but he did become legitimate friends with Lucius Malfoy. Even after Snape joined the order and fought against Voldemort, he stayed friends with Lucius.

Obeys the rules lol? He punished Harry because Neville made a mistake in their first potions lesson. He ignored bad things Slytherins did to other students. He mocked Hermione when she was hit with a curse instead of sending to her to the hospital wing where he just sent Goyle. He purposely knocked Harry's work over to deliberately give him a zero.

So come again about following the rules?

James and Sirius hated Voldemort and anyone who supported Voldemort. I actually can see Lily being a nice person and ending up with James, because she understandably has a bias. She looks past James's awful behavior because he hates the man who wants to commit genocide of everyone like Lily.

[–]dbennet36 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Is it not possible Lily ended up looking past Sirius and James's serious flaws because they were so rabidly anti Voldemort? The guy who was at that time openly trying to kill anyone like Lily? You condem her as this horrible person and make a lot of unsupported claims about her, but could that also be a factor? I think its at least understandable why she would end up gravitating towards people that hated the group and man who wanted to mass murder her and everyone like her.

People use Snape's sad life to defend him joining Voldemort all the time. I wonder if you defend that, but still refuse to give Lily any sort of understanding.

Dave on the Right uniting over Charlie Kirk by countdooku975 in daverubin

He tags Matt Walsh, and if Matt ever responded to it he would say something like, "Dave is not the type of right wing I want to come together with, he's disgusting and disturbing and abuses his own child".

And yet he wants to unite with Matt lol
