F I R S T L Y: Though this poster may seem humorous by nature, it was not intended as a joke because not only are rape jokes disgusting but I am as serious about my love for all things Harry Potter as I am about my stance on social and sexual politics. Rape is an unpleasant but extremely relevant topic in our times and combatting its culture is as important in the magical world as in the muggle world, so I hope that every child will be taught that using a love potion that comes in a can with a percentage on it is just as bad.
Because even Harry Potter can teach you to fight rape culture.
(Feel free to substitute “potions” for any mood or judgement-altering substances/drugs in the nonfictional world.)
What a great idea for how to teach lessons and raise points about rape culture through fantasy literature.
