Under the “distribution” of the imagination of fans, one of the most unambiguous characters of the Rowling universe fell.
According to the new Fant theory, Voldemort is not a villain at all, but the liberator of the magical world from the corrupt regime. Yes, the same Lord Voldemort, which has been shown to us all our lives as the embodiment of evil, it appears that it has been simply fought for the purity of the magical heritage. Or, at least, they think on Reddit.
The authors of the theory offer to look at Harry Potter’s history through the eyes of Harry Potter, but on the other, more uncomfortable side. After all, the story in books and films is in the first place Harry’s gaze, and he, as you know, was not the most objective observer. Voldemort killed his parents, tried to kill him – and it was because of this personal tragedy that the entire perception of “evil” is formed.
But if you dig deeper, fans say, Voldemort not only fought for power. His idea is to unite wizards and magical creatures, to protect them against a growing threat against the Dreuzels and to bring purebred wizards through the oppression of the bureaucratic system of the Ministry of Magic. Among his supporters were not only murderers such as Bellatris Lestrange, but also those who rejected the magical society for a long time: giants, dementors, centers.
From this point of view, the actions of Tom Riddle, the former Hogwarts, do not seem like madness, but as a consistent attempt to arrange a coup against a regime that he himself used segregation, violence and censorship.
Even in the climax – the battle for Hogwarts – he reportedly did not immediately go to destruction, but offered an “amnesty” for those who surrender and stand by his side. However, this part is controversial – especially if you remember exactly what the methods looked like in other episodes.
Fans also indicate that the “good” in this story was far from the ideal. Dumbledore deliberately raised Harry as a weapon, Snape worked on two sides, and the Ministry of Magic has been ignoring the problems of the magical community for decades.
The theory itself does not deny the cruelty of Voldemort. Yes, he is obsessed with the idea of immortality. Yes, his methods were often barbaric. But this does not prevent parts of the magical world not to consider it a monster, but by a martyr, not a villain, but a leader in resistance.
