I... didn't notice him looking jewish. o.o But I did know that fandom and everyone makes a GIANT fuss about his nose and how he's thin and austure and UGLY and slimey and greasy.
Like, wtf, shuddup people. How fortunate that Harry just so happens to be the shiny shiny star, that James Potter is the Bright Nad Rich and Handsome. Some fics used to have Snape as a rich scion, but canonically he's poorer then dirt, has an abusive muggle-father. Just... what the hell. And everyone rags on the Slytherins like it's their fault - every bad wizard was Slytherin.
If that's the case what's the point of having the school at all?
Anti-intellectualism makes me want to kick things. My students are fucking lazy and stupid and refuse to learn or even think for themselves, and think it's so clever not to even read all the instructions and to leave lab as soon as possible. What.
