His father was a government worker who had to put six boys through school (and one girl). Tended not to leave much extra money on hand. Though the older ones seemed to have done well for them selves by the end of the series. And Ron pumped a few kids into Hermione, he doesn't seem too worse off.
>Hermione is canonically black
Lol no. Just because JKR said that "technically I never explicitly described her as a white caucasian so she could be black", doesn't mean that she's canonically black. She's very clearly white, and has been the entire time.
She's the daughter of 2 dentists in 1990s England.
They will 100% make her black in the new series. That's a given.
And Harry is prolly gonna be turned into a dravidian indian darker than chocolate because JKR years after the books made up that shit that one of his grandmothers was indian.
None of this shit means that they're canonically anything other than english white kids.
Because Molly "the Burning Bush" Weasley and Arthur "Fire Hose" Weasley just couldn't control themselves. Whenever they were alone for more than 1 minute they just had to plap plap plap.
Because capitalism requires people to be poor so other people can be rich. The Malfoy's extracted all of the Weasley's wealth and spent it on albino peawieners.
More so how is anyone poor in a world that can do literal fricking magic? Do wizard police come and beat the shit out of wizards who benefit from magic and not put it on their magic taxes?
>More so how is anyone poor in a world that can do literal fricking magic?
because of limited magic resources and the difficulty and in creating or using them
that + goblin usury
Serious answer, but there are things that are not infinite even with magic. Food, wands, magical ingredients, tons of stuff needed for every day life that you can't just magic out of nowhere.
From what I remember, you can't conjure food out of nowhere but you can easily 1000x speed grow it with magic (I think Hagrid does this in the first book) and then magic the ingredients into food like Mrs Weasley does.
All wizards seem to own the land they live on (we've never heard of wizard rent) and utilities are unheard of in the book (Floo use tax perhaps, since the Weasleys weren't hooked up to it we can assume they might be too poor or it's for important wizards only).
So what are they paying for besides magical stuff (you only buy a wand once, a cauldron can serve the whole family and is similarly BIFL)? Maybe books and schooling fees are their main expense lol
it was a poorly thought out idea she then had to justify for 6 more books. all her kids are in the same school for 9-10 months at a time or have graduated and got their own jobs.
it doesn't make sense because she didn't plan far enough ahead early on, which is reasonable.
>Wizards can conjure water and food on command >Magic makes it so that wizards can live comfortably inside a suitcase >There's somehow still a need for money
Rowling never should have gone down that rabbit hole. Its magic, magic can create matter from nothing. No big deal. Wizards can make water appear any time they want
Under what arbitrary rule and who decides what matter constitutes something edible, something with monetary value and something that is not one of those things?
They don't conjure food and can't replicate gold. Dumbledore just teleports the food from the kitchens to the great hall. Later on Rowling had to address the issue with keeping slaves at Hogwarts. It's always like that, she writes some intruiging non-sense and later retcons how it actually works.
The books make it seem like he's Wizard Trash but he's actually from two Ancient and Noble shitlib house lines that lost all their money somehow. Honestly makes the political disagreements between Lucius and Arthur in Chamber a historically on-point depiction of intra-elite competition, smart by Rowling.
So poor kids who read the book cant cope with being poor >Oh, its ok, even in magic world there are some unforutane people who are poor
t Was poor while reading it
Why are (You)?
because i don't have magic

hermione was homely in the books, also now she's black probably, not so sure if that's a win for him tbh.
>hermione was homely in the books,
And anyone and everyone will think of Emma, regardless of later depictions.
>And anyone and everyone will think of Emma, regardless of later depictions.
Not me lol
Because his mother doesn't work and his father is a Black personlover
So is he. Literally. Hermione is canonically black
>Hermione is canonically black
Lol no. Just because JKR said that "technically I never explicitly described her as a white caucasian so she could be black", doesn't mean that she's canonically black. She's very clearly white, and has been the entire time.

Nothing, and I mean literally nothing in the entire world, is going to make that true. HBO will prove you wrong and this is a guarantee.
They will 100% make her black in the new series. That's a given.

I'm tired of living in the present. Take me back to the past or just take me out.
They are canonically persons of color, and the fact that you resist this inherent, immutable truth means you are mad. Why are you so mad?
Emma Watson is probably already a troony.
>JKR years after the books made up that shit that one of his grandmothers was indian.
Sauce? Can't find anything about that other than fanfics
there is no sauce anon is schizophrenic but its possible jkr might raceswap him since shes a lib
Mother doesn't work, dad is a low level wagies, parents had too many fricking kids.
Not poor just had a lot of siblings
He's Oirish
Because Molly "the Burning Bush" Weasley and Arthur "Fire Hose" Weasley just couldn't control themselves. Whenever they were alone for more than 1 minute they just had to plap plap plap.
PLAP PLAP PLAP PLAP PLAP PLAP
>Ywn have a loyal housewife sex kitten waiting for you at home
I have wasted my life. 🙁
im pretty sure thats not even how the ginger gene works
Why are there gnomes? Why can't wizards enslave them?
Because capitalism requires people to be poor so other people can be rich. The Malfoy's extracted all of the Weasley's wealth and spent it on albino peawieners.

difficulty and danger*
Britain doesn't give Wi*ards gibs.
Serious answer, but there are things that are not infinite even with magic. Food, wands, magical ingredients, tons of stuff needed for every day life that you can't just magic out of nowhere.
So? Just use magic to extract wealth from muggles and gnomes.

Yeah I think this and the anon sayign they needed a poor kid in the books is the right answer. It's fun to think about though
because angloids hate the irish
Ron is kinda cute. I never used to think so, but now I kinda do
>Wizards can conjure water and food on command

Literally can't.

What about the mulplying cups in Bellatrix's vault? Just multiply your money
Not food and not money.
Under what arbitrary rule and who decides what matter constitutes something edible, something with monetary value and something that is not one of those things?
Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration, that's what.
Well, multiply something of value other than money and sell it

It's been decades since Harry Potter came out and there's still no real good "What If" story where Ron gets sorted into Slytherin
His family are fervent believers in National Socialist ideology and subject Ronald Billius Weasley to struggle so he becomes an ubermenschen.
I just checked Pottermore and this is literally the canon reason
digits confirmed
The Irish are some of the most revolting specimens of our species
have a nice day pedo israelite
Why are you so angery?
literally nothing wrong with either of those things

So canonically, there are probably furry women in the Harry Potter world, right?
Veela's are technically furry women.
They're half fairy, which makes them half homosexuals.
there are no fairies in HP.
So poor kids who read the book cant cope with being poor
>Oh, its ok, even in magic world there are some unforutane people who are poor

How did you afford a book, let alone 7 books?
Libaries are a thing, moron.
It was brithdayx-mas presents mostly
>wingardium leviosa someone's wallet
Invested in crypto.
He is from a lower class
the english wizards also oppressed the irish wizards
why didn't harry buy him a decent dress robes for the dance? he just watches and laughs at his best friend's misfortune
I don't think Ron would have appreciated charity (although Harry did buy him those expensive binoculars in the same book).
>Have several sons
>All are successful to some extent
>None help their family once they make it rich
Kind of fricked up.
Because of the ~~*Goblins*~~
The Irish are the Black folk of Europe
They commit the most crime?
In that they're weird and I fetishize their women
Zero israeli ancestry
so is this tv adaption happening or not
if harry doesn't have an inner monologue it'll be worse than shit
Too ugly to sell his ass
because percy said nothing wrong.
Percy is an imaginary OC
