Harry Potter inconsistency.

Salazar Slytherin wanted to ban halfbloods and muggle born students from coming to Hogwarts.

Which would have meant Tom Riddle couldn't go to Hogwarts...

...And there never would have been a Lord Voldemort.

And Slytherin is the bad guy?

Explain that chit.

Can't really be an inconsistency if the other founders of Hogwarts had no idea their actions would have created Voldemort.

Its just one of those things that could have happened if Hogwarts was a school for "pure" Wizards/Witches.

It's an inconsistency because history sees Slytherin as the villain when clearly he was right about the importance of keeping the bloodlines pure.

Can't necessarily say that Voldy was bad because he wasn't pureblood though. Maybe he was just a kunt regardless.

Irrelevant. The damage he did was a result of his mastery of magic which he learned at Hogwarts.

It isn't though - the Dark Lord could have been anyone, even a pure-blood as well.

None of them knew that not supporting Slytherin would lead to the creation of Voldemort - all they new was that he was too radical in his approach of who can and cannot attend the school.

Nope. There could be only one Voldemort.

That's unclear. The only love potions Rowling ever wrote about make the drinker fall in love with the potion maker. It's never explained if you could brew a love potion that would make the drinker fall in love with someone else (in this case a dude) and then drink it yourself.

So your question is irrelevant.

I think you're really digging too deep into this.

None of the founders knew this would happen, whether they agreed with him or not, only after the decision would be made, would either outcome play out.


If that's the case, then any movie you watch could be nitpicked like this to be said it was "inconsistent".

The inconsistency isn't that the other founders didn't agree with Slytherin.

The inconsistency is that hundreds of years later, after Voldemort happened, people STILL thought Slytherin was wrong when history had proven him to be right.

The entire Harry Potter series is actually one giant metaphor for why progressivism is doomed to cause untold suffering and death all for the illusion of inclusivity.

Which makes perfect sense now when we see Rowling's based takes on trans issues.

I mean, I agree in that regard - after all that happened Slytherin is still seen as a bad guy however, its only because of his radical, hateful views of muggles and mudbloods.

None of the people in the HP Universe cared to look back at the aspect because, well, of who he was and his views.

Not to mention that the majority of the people that sucked in the Wizarding world all came from his house in Hogwarts.

Which completes the metaphor. History views Slytherin as the villain when in fact he was the hero who failed because he was just outnumbered by well meaning idiots.

The blood of all of Voldemort's victims is on the hands of Godric Griffindor, Helga Hufflepuff and Rowena Ravenclaw. Their progressive policies led directly to all those deaths.

Its evil because they are punishing all half bloods for the actions of one. Doesn’t that sound like evil in today’s world too.

Evil is teaching Tom Riddle magic so he can go on to kill thousands of people despite all the obvious red flags around him just because you're trying to be inclusive.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

There were bad guys before Voldemort. There would be bad guys after. Their views and opinions matter little, there are just bad people that do bad things.

But deep down, all evil people are hypocrites. It mirrors our world leaders and celebrities pretty clearly.
Freedom of speech is a principle pillar of a free government; when this support is taken away, the constitution of a free society is dissolved and tyranny is erected on its ruins.
