Why would Hermione (or any other muggle born kids) be afraid to say Voldemorts name? She just learned about Voldemort a few months ago, would she really give a fuck?
>>214201591Some people are afraid to mention Satan or Lucifer by name. It does tend to bring a bad energy, if you believe in that kind of thing.
>>214201591>be 11 year old>be told there was a super powerful dark wizard who was probably dead but may not be, who could sense when you said his name and would appear in your bedroom at nightWhy do you think?
>>214201591She hated being a mudblood and was trying to fit in.
>>214201591God she was so hot
Why is potterslop so NPC-coded
>>214202426I know. Imagine if she was still young and cast in the new series and black Snape had her stay after class. Maybe taught her a thing or two. In private.
>Why is potterslop so NPC-coded
>>214201591In the first book Harry starts to become uneasy saying the name pretty quick and thinks that it's part of entering the magical world, or something like that.
>>214201617Why are people not afraid to mention Hitler by name then? He is the real life equivalent to Voldemort anyways.
>>214201591Hermoine is a goody two-shoes who almost always does what others expect of her, so it makes sense that's she's either read or been told that saying the name is taboo and uses euphemisms like You Know Who just like everyone else, even if she hasn't had a lifelong fear of him.
>>214202647Because most people aren't jews.
>>214201591It freaked people out if you said it. Not saying it was just a matter of courtesy.
>>214201591Could wizards actually take over the world attacking and killing Kam non magic people?
>>214202267>>214201591ah right i was 7 and bloody mary stories from my classmates freaked me out
>>214202454wow, people ended having similar thoughts about this decades old massively popular franchise. Thats crazy.
>>214202647Hitler took over an entire country,started a world war, and killed millions. Voldemort basically just started a racist street gang. Wizards are just massive pussies.
>>214202774Wizards already rule the world. They've got operatives stationed as bodyguards for every world leader. If they wanted to they could just imperio them all or alter their memories.They would never have to fight openly.
>>214202647It turns out there was a very rational reason to be afraid of saying Voldemort's name. You can curse a name so you could track anyone who said it.They just never explain this to the kids.
>>214202756This also
>>214201591It's a film thing only, in the books she doesn't understand why it's such a bad insult
