Im pretty sure its because they were trying to keep him on campus to keep him safe and used that as a bs excuse and he didn’t realize it until later cause he’s a kid. Idgaf about Harry Potter, haven’t picked up a book in 20 years, but I remember this.
Spot on. Sirius Black escaped an inescapable prison for the sole purpose, it was widely believed, of murdering Harry. The permission slip was just a convenient excuse to keep Harry protected.
RE: idgaf, you’re allowed, you know. You can love the art but dislike the artist. Or like the artist if you wish. I’m personally indifferent to Rowling but consider the Harry Potter series to be clever and highly entertaining. I find it much more engaging than The Silmarillion.
Also, people are too eager to cast judgement on each other, and too often forget that people have layers, like onions. Or a parfait. My dad was a Fox News, AM talk radio, Facebook propaganda cult follower whose politics were buggered beyond repair. He occasionally spouted racist or bigoted or otherwise insensitive bullshit. He was also a model father and husband, selfless, generous, kind, soft spoken, and loved by everyone who had ever met him. To know how eager much of the world would be to cancel him for his political beliefs breaks my heart, and I’m grateful he was horrible with technology, well-shielded from the summary judgement of social justice warriors.
It’s because they thought Black was going for retribution on Harry so they probably figured that he was largely laser focused on him. Though he did blow up a bunch of folks in their eyes so that logic doesnt really hold water.
TLDR: Rowling dumb and doesn’t even think things through within the same book.
Yes, but they also thought he was a crazy psychopath, on top of blowing people up. So, still not the kid friendly environment that would be suitable, if logic is used.
But they are kids books, so it’s not a big deal. However, she’s not a genius author. She struck it lucky. Like many, she thinks it’s merit based, now that she’s a billionaire. And she uses that big brain to trample on the rights of others. If she wasn’t a billionaire, she’d be the crazy psychopath she wrote about (who in this case turned out to be a good guy in the books; she wouldn’t ).
But as an extra layer, weren’t Dumbledore and Co in on Sirius being framed? I thought it was low key known that Sirius “being a bad guy” was just Ministry propaganda or whatever.

She literally funds transphobic hate groups the fuck you mean to egear to cast judgment.
That is understandable. Silmarillion is like a collection of extended footnotes and a cosmology rulebook.
talk about reaching deep to find that strawman
if my parfait or onion has a shit flavored layer in it, I’m throwing the whole thing into the trash
especially if that parfait then uses it’s vast wealth to make more of the world shit flavored
Yes, as there was a killer on the loose, suspected to be super crazy and in the area. In which case, would it be safe for the other kids?
It’s not logical whichever way you look at it.
