I still don't get how even if it's all those things (in retrospect, maybe it made more sense when I was a kid), that J.K. Rowling is the exact opposite politically. And right wing commentators and middle-America hates that shit for reasons beyond religion. Is hierarchy natural? No, but that's because any definition of hierarchy might be inherently flawed. Notice you said egalitarian, not equal. There is neither pure equality or linear hierarchy. Just sheer chaos.
The same way you figure the fundamental lesson of history is that rebellion is pointless. You have your adaptation to what you see as the unchangeable universe, so does JK Rowling. In JK Rowling's mind, the aristocracy will always have power because in the UK, the aristocracy has always had power and it's not worth the fuss to complain about David Cameron and Boris Johnson being in the same pigfucker's union. JK Rowling thinks she's a liberal. You think you're a rebel. It's all the same. The thing is, I blame JK Rowling for your attitude.I still don't get how even if it's all those things (in retrospect, maybe it made more sense when I was a kid), that J.K.
