A list of darker things that people forget were in the Harry Potter books:

Hagrid was an alcoholic.

Cornelius Fudge essentially murdered someone.

Harry once used the Cruciartus Curse on someone.

Fenrir Greyback intentionally targeted children.

Albus Dumbledore may have killed his sister.

A disguised Death Eater once put an entire class under his control.

The Bloody Baron killed Helena Ravenclaw.

Add on if you think of others.

Sirius Black was fundamentally kept under house arrest in a house he hated by Albus Dumbledore, who deemed any contact between Harry and him dangerous. Thus, cutting off Sirius from one of the only people whom he truly loved and cared about.

Neville Longbottom was tortured mercilessly for refusing to practice the Cruciatus Curse on first years.

Alice and Frank Longbottom were tortured to insanity. They will never get better.

Hermione Granger kept an adult woman trapped in a jar for an extended amount of time.

Luna Lovegood watched her mother die.

James Potter, Sirius Black, and Peter Pettigrew illegally became animaguses to keep their friend company on full moons, knowing full well that it could get them hurt and arrested.

Minerva McGonagall staked out the Dursely household for an entire day, and confirmed that they were not an appropriate family for Harry Potter to grow up in. Albus Dumbledore disregarded her opinion and left Harry in a domestically abusive household that starved him.

Frankly, babies need attention. They need to be fed, burped, and hummed to sleep. They need their diapers changed. They need toys to play with. They cry a lot when they are teething, and need things to chew on.
Toddlers also need attention. They throw tantrums and cry when they don’t understand something. They act all strong and important, but still need someone to scare away the monsters at night. They are curious and ask questions about everything.
It’s natural. But do you think the Durselys sang Harry to sleep? Do you think the Durselys tried to gently calm toddler Harry down when he had a tantrum and threw his bowl of food? No.

Luna Lovegood was bullied. She had her things stolen and scattered all over Hogwarts.

Albus Dumbledore knew Hagrid was innocent, but did nothing to stop his expulsion from Hogwarts, and did not clear his name afterwards.

Dumbledore was just a complete disaster.  He not only left Harry in an emotionally and physically abusive household, all the children in Hogwarts were essentially raised in an extremely dangerous environment, where they were regularly trusted to fight monsters and deal with all the school’s problems. 

He also allowed abusive teachers like Snape to continue their tutelage, and did nothing to stop the endless bullying of students like Luna and Neville. 

To top it all off, he blatantly showed favoritism towards Gryffindor, and discriminated against Slytherin. 

A teen boy took forceful control of a little girl’s body.

Merope Gaunt raped Tom Sr. as love potions take someone’s free will away from them. She forced him into marriage, into moving, and into having sex with her. Yes he is an ass, but she is not in the right either.

Hagrid illegally crossbred creatures.

Harry nearly killed Draco with a spell he knew nothing about and foolishly used.

Umbridge tortured students and Fudge did so by prox for giving her permission to do whatever she wanted.

Trelawney told 13 years olds that they were going to die and even repeatedly harassed one student in particular.

Barty forced Neville to watch a curse that ruined his parents.

Snape forced a possibly deadly potion down Trevor’s throat just to hurt amd embarrass Neville.

An entire House of students are treated terriby simply because a few were bad eggs.

Neville’s relatives deliberately put him in dangerous situations so he’d do magic. THEY DANGLED HIM OUT A WINDOW!

The entire series is about an emotionally neglected orphan who survived a murder attempt

1. going to a school where he is continuously alternately loved or ostracized by his peers while his teachers stand back and let it happen

2. verbally abused, mind-raped, almost murdered, tortured and neglected by various people in positions of authority

3. forced into a legally binding contract against his will, slandered in the media, and put on trial for a minor violation with no formal apologies when the actions prove to be baseless nor offered legal aid or council to counter the effects

and 4. despite the fact that he is a child and should in no way be forced to shoulder the responsibilities of the problems created by the previous generation, he is apparently fated to either be murderer or murdered and yet no one bothers to sit him down and explain this to him or get him ready to face his supposed destiny because “yay childhood” and “greater good of everyone but you, sorry kid”

1. Let’s add blatant bullying against those not of pure blood. It makes racism look tame.

2. The Goblins train magical creatures to expect pain and suffering when they hear a small bell.

3. Grindelwald and Dumbledore planned to rule the world together as Masters of Death.

4. Fudge stationed soul sucking monsters that cannot truly be controlled nor killed, over a school containing magical Britain’s future.

5. Umbridge tried to have Harry Kissed by sending Dementors after him.

6. Umbridge tried to use the Cruciatus on Hermione and Harry.

7. Fudge tried to move onto Harry’s punishment without giving him any chances to defend himself(which is illegal).

8. House Elves are expected to punish themselves severely for the most ridiculous cases of disobedience or mistakes.

9. Hufflepuffs are the kind to gossip first and ask questions later, Slytherins are the kind of kill you first, ask questions later, Gryffindors will accuse and attack you first and ask questions later, and Ravenclaws are so sure of their intelligence, they won’t bother to ask question and will just condemn you.

10. Speaking to a snake is equivalent to being a Dark Lord and it makes you evil.

11. It’s actually been revealed that Dumbledore knew Quirrell and Lockhart weren’t the real deal and hired them anyway, ruining the education of 1,000 students for 2 years in a row!

Sirius Black was sent to Azkaban without a trial by Barty Crouch Sr.

Severus Snape outed Remus Lupin as a werewolf to the entire school and forced him to resign, despite the fact that Remus was actually a fully qualified teacher.

Draco was basically forced to kill Dumbledore so his family would stay safe
